Abstract
The time-varying impulse response of rapidly fading mobile communication channels is expanded over a basis of complex exponentials that arise due to Doppler effects encountered with multipath propagation. Blind methods are reviewed for estimating the bases' parameters and the model orders. Existing second-order methods are critiqued and novel algorithms are developed for blind identification, direct, zero-forcing equalization and minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalization by combining channel diversity with temporal (fractional sampling) and/or spatial diversity which becomes available with multiple receivers. Illustrative simulations are also presented.
