Abstract

Methods and apparatus are provided for simultaneous estimation of frequency offset and channel response for a communication system, such as a MU-MIMO communication system. An iterative method is provided for estimating frequency offset and channel response for a plurality of frequency resources. The channel response is estimated for a set of users sharing a given one of the frequency resources. In addition, the frequency offset is estimated for the users in the set, wherein the channel response and frequency offset of users not in the set are maintained at their latest updated values. Initially, the channel response of a user can be an ideal channel response and the frequency offset can be approximately zero.
