In this paper, we proposed a new approach to optimize dictionaries by decreasing the average measure of the mutual coherence of the effective dictionary. A fixed link between the average mutual coherence and the CS perforrmnce is indicated by designing three factors： operating bandwidth, the number of pilot subcarriers, and coherence bandwidth. Both the Orthogonal Matching Pursuit （OMP） and the Basis Pursuit De-Noising （BPDN） are compared to the Dantzig Selector （DS） for different Signal Noise Ratio （SNR） and shown to benefit from the newly designed dictionary. Nurnerical sinmlations and experimental data of an OFDM receiver are used to evaluate the proposed method in comparison with the conventional LeastSquare （LS） estirmtor. The results show that the dictionary with a better condition considerably improves the perforrmnce of the channel estimation.展开更多
