Low-Complexity Channel Estimation Framework for Non-Square UPA-Assisted XL-MIMO Systems

arXiv:2607.18744v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-complexity channel state information acquisition is crucial for extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) systems. However, practical deployments of non-square uniform planar arrays (UPAs) in hybrid-field environments face prohibitive computational complexity and degraded estimation accuracy due to limited elevation angle-of-arrival (AoA) resolution and deteriorated channel sparsity. To tackle these challenges, we propose a low-complexity channel estimation framework. First, an antenna-domain extrapolation scheme synthesizes a virtually enlarged vertical aperture via the spatial correlation among adjacent elements, breaking the elevation resolution limit. The framework then disentangles the parameter coupling by transforming the two-dimensional joint search into two sequential one-dimensional searches. Specifically, elevation AoAs are extracted via an extrapolation-enhanced discrete Fourier transform-Newtonized orthogonal matching pursuit (NOMP) algorithm along the virtually enlarged vertical uniform linear array (ULA), while azimuth AoAs, ranges, and gains are acquired utilizing a discrete fractional Fourier transform-NOMP algorithm along a horizontal ULA. A subspace fitting-driven path matching algorithm pairs these decoupled parameters. To overcome the accuracy bottleneck of the antenna-domain scheme, a correlation-domain extrapolation scheme is further developed by exploiting the structural properties of the spatial correlation matrix to decouple the near-field quadratic and azimuth phase components, yielding a noise-suppressed virtual array. Numerical results validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
