We introduce the superimposed training strategy into the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) amplify-and-forward (AF) one-way relay network (OWRN) to perform the individual channel estimation at the destination. Through the superposition of a group of additional training vectors at the relay subject to power allocation, the separated estimates of the source-relay and relay-destination channels can be obtained directly at the destination, and the accordance with the two-hop AF strategy can be guaranteed at the same time. The closed-form Bayesian Cramér-Rao lower bound (CRLB) is derived for the estimation of two sets of flat-fading MIMO channel under random channel parameters and further exploited to design the optimal training vectors. A specific suboptimal channel estimation algorithm is applied in the MIMO AF OWRN using the optimal training sequences, and the normalized mean square error performance for the estimation is provided to verify the Bayesian CRLB results.

This contribution describes a novel iterative radio channel estimation algorithm based on superimposed training (ST) estimation technique. The proposed algorithm draws an analogy with the data dependent ST (DDST) algorithm, that is, extracts the cycling mean of the data, but in this case at the receiver's end. We first demonstrate that this mean removal ST (MRST) applied to estimate a single-input single-output (SISO) wideband channel results in similar bit error rate (BER) performance in comparison with other iterative techniques, but with less complexity. Subsequently, we jointly use the MRST and Alamouti coding to obtain an estimate of the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) narrowband radio channel. The impact of imperfect channel on the BER performance is evidenced by a comparison between the MRST method and the best iterative techniques found in the literature. The proposed algorithm shows a good tradeoff performance between complexity, channel estimation error, and noise immunity.
