2D‐DFT PA channel estimation provides very accurate channel estimation.

If the time averaging filter is doubled the cancellation residual errorIf the time averaging filter is doubled the cancellation residual error decreases by 3 dB.

For high SNR the PA channel estimation performs better than the DD.

Signal Cancellation

1. Signal cancellation error is the same as the channel estimation error.

1. Existing channel estimation and equalization algorithms work well. Not need to invent new fancy algorithms.

2. Channel estimation error also related to noise level. Channel estimation error should be lower than the noise level to minimize the impact to the receiver performance

4. Pilot Added algorithms work well for high SNR cases. Decision Directed algorithms work better for low SNR cases; Two layer system is equivalent to boosting pilots by several dB (injection level) for lower channel estimation, which provides good channel estimation results.

5. Larger size FFT OFDM modulation will improve estimation performance, since for the same percentage of pilots, large FFT modulation reduces the pilot spacing (in Hz)

• Clearly no complexity increase in common parts.

Complexity of LDM receivers

• For a LDM receiver that decodes the high‐data rate lower layer

• First step is to correctly decode the upper layer

• Re‐modulate the decoded data

• And then cancel it from the received signalAnd then cancel it from the received signal

• Complexity mainly depend on the LDPC decoder, which should be shared for both

• Memory increase estimation assuming UL and LL use 64k LDPC codes

Since UL decoding (10 iteration), remapping, cancellation, and LL decoding (50 iteration)

should be finished simultaneously maximum 64k cells are required

32k cells for current decoding + 32k cells for storing next data

If TDI = 219(512K) cells 12.5%memory increase (worst case)

Conclusions

ConclusionsConclusions

LDM is a multiplexing scheme, that can mix different serviceswith different reception conditions in one RF channel.

The main advantage is the use of the 100 % of the spectrumduring the whole transmission time.

It achieves 5 to 6 dB SNR gain when compared to TDM/FDMsystems for robust mobile/indoor reception.
