Abstract

The use of multi-level modulation scheme in the wireless LAN(Local Area Networks) system requires an accurate channel estimation. In this paper, we present sequential least squares(LS) channel estimation scheme based on decision-directed channel tracking scheme. The proposed scheme improves the performance of the conventional LS estimator for wireless LAN. In addition, its structure is suitable for the high-rate wireless LAN. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves about IdB Packet Error Rate(PER) gain compared to the LS scheme in a frequency selective channel.
