Transfer learning-based channel estimation in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing systems using data-nulling superimposed pilots.

ABSTRACT: Data-nulling superimposed pilot (DNSP) effectively alleviates the superimposed interference of superimposed training (ST)-based channel estimation (CE) in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems, while facing the challenges of the estimation accuracy and computational complexity. By developing the promising solutions of deep learning (DL) in the physical layer of wireless communication, we fuse the DNSP and DL to tackle these challenges in this paper. Nevertheless, due to the changes of wireless scenarios, the model mismatch of DL leads to the performance degradation of CE, and thus faces the issue of network retraining. To address this issue, a lightweight transfer learning (TL) network is further proposed for the DL-based DNSP scheme, and thus structures a TL-based CE i
