MUSCAT -- A ground-breaking paper on recent developments in MIMO Channel Estimation Techniques from the Sultanate of Oman has gained much appreciation in Bangkok when it was presented at a high-level conference recently.
This paper by Vikash Sharma, Lecturer (Section grade) at the Waljat College of Applied Sciences, was presented at an International Conference at Bangkok, jointly sponsored by international organisations Institution of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), Thailand Chapter and The Society of Digital Information and Wireless Communications (SDIWC) which was held from May 16 to 18.
The paper revolves around the ever increase in demand for bandwidth and services related to high performance broadband wireless communications which has opened the doors for use of multiple antennas both at the transmitter and the receiver.
It says that the wireless channel properties are dynamic by nature as it is frequency selective as well as time dependent.
(Multi-Input-Multi-Output) MIMO channel estimation technique has been one among the prime focus areas among the researchers in past two decades, which has emerged as one among the novel techniques to support the ever increase in demand for bandwidth as well as high data rate to support upcoming telecom and multimedia services.
Combination of MIMO with (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) OFDM as well as (Ultra Wide Band) UWB techniques has shown improved performance in providing high data rate with low complex receiver properties and channel capacity.
Recently researchers have shown interest in applying MIMO-OFDM in estimating channel parameters of underwater acoustic channels. The objective of the present paper is to present the developments made by researchers in channel estimation techniques in MIMO environment in recent past years.
"It is the result of my more than nine months' hard work and research along with the support of my friends and colleagues.
I'm really honoured to have submitted the paper at the conference", an elated Vikash Sharma told the Observer.
Vikash Sharma received Master Degree in Industrial Management in the year 1995 and Master Degree in Communication System Engineering in the year 2001 from University College of Engineering, Burla (Sambalpur University), Sambalpur, India.
Presently he is pursuing PhD in the Channel Estimation Techniques from Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra, India.
Sharma is also associated with Birla Institute of Technology (BIT) as a senior faculty member in the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering since the year 2004 and has been deputed to the International Center of BIT at Waljat College of Applied Sciences.
He is also a member of IEEE, ACM and Life member of IAENG and ISTE (India) with passion for signal processing and wireless communication.
He has also authored a book on Multi Resolution Signal Decomposition Techniques for Signal/ Image Processing, published by LAP LAMBERT Academic Publishing GmbH and Company.
Vikash has also authored 14 research papers in journals and conferences.
Researchers from as many as 29 countries including Algeria, Australia, Canada, China, Czech Republic, France, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Iraq, Iran, Japan, Jordan, Korea, Malaysia, Myanmar, Norway, Oman, Pakistan, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Spain, South Africa, Sweden, Taiwan, Tanzania, Tunisia, Turkey, UK had presented about 100 research papers at the conference.
