Channel estimation is considered as an important phase in Multiple Input Multiple Output – Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) networks which can enhances the performance significantly. Channel estimation widely classified as pilot based, blind and semi-blind channel estimation. The pilot-based channel estimation decreases the data transmission rate and spectral efficiency. To overcome these issues of existing schemes, we present a novel blind channel estimation technique. According to proposed scheme, we transmit the data in a block-wise manner. The proposed scheme uses precoding technique to establish the correlation between these blocks. Further, we use channel correlation to solve the diagonal uncertainty of correlation matrix which helps to improve the system performance. We present a comparative analysis study which shows that proposed approach can achieve better performance in terms of Normalized Mean Square Error (NMSE) and Mean Square Error (MSE) when compared with existing techniques.

The combination of MIMO technology with OFDM system, there is enhancement of wireless digital communication which is quite beneficial for future communicating system. MIMO-OFDM improves the efficiency and quality of the wireless scenario. With efficient channel estimation technique especially non-blind under MIMO-OFDM scenario present an enhanced performance with low complexity. In the pilot type, the least squares method (LS method) is less complex and requires an implicit knowledge of the channels. However, it suffers from inter-carrier interference (ICI). For this reason, the optimal design of Channel Estimator is an area of ongoing research. In this work, the performance of the DWT-OFDM scheme in combination with a multi-input system and multiple outputs for unknown pilot symbols is evaluated using a neural network. Take advantage of time series prediction using a recurrent neural network (RNN) with a SoftMax layer with frequency index modulation to perform channel prediction. In this research work a comparative analysis is performed among proposed softmax recurrent neural network based channel estimation with existing channel estimation technique for variable signal to noise ratio (Eb/No) for frequency indexed modulation techniques. The existing channel estimation techniques for MIMO-OFDM communicating environment are based on known pilots over the noisy fading wireless environment. From simulation result, it is observed and concluded that the existing channel estimation techniques gives higher BER as compared to proposed softmax recurrent neural network channel estimation technique.
