SINR degradation in MIMO-OFDM systems with channel estimation errors and partial phase noise compensation

The phase noise effect in multiple-input-multipleoutput systems employing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing is considered in a realistic scenario where the estimated channel matrix is affected by an error. The analytical SINR degradation due to phase noise and channel estimation is obtained for linear receivers (ZF and MMSE)This work is partly funded by the projects "COMONSENS" CSD2008- 00010 and "MULTI-ADAPTIVE" TEC2008-06327-C03-02Publicad
