Application of Approximation Constructions with a Small Number of Parameters for the Estimation of a Rayleigh Fading Multipath Channel with Doppler Spectrum Spreading.

In this article, an algorithm for joint estimation of communication channel gains and signal distortions in a direct conversion receiver is proposed. The received signal model uses approximations with a small number of parameters to reduce the computational complexity of the resulting algorithm. The estimation algorithm is obtained under the assumption of a priori uncertainty about the characteristics of the communication channel and noise distribution using the linear least squares method.
