Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new channel tracking method for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems under both the time-varying and spatial-varying circumstance. With spatial-temporal basis expansion model (ST-BEM), the channel information is decomposed into the spatial information and gain information, where the former is determined by the central angle as well as the angular spread of the incoming signal. We first blindly track the central angle by the extended Kalman filter (EKF) and obtain the angular spread through Taylor series expansion of the steering vector. Then, the channel gain information can be estimated with only a few pilot symbols. Various numerical results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
