LS & MMSE channel estimators for OFDM

Compares the performance of the LS and MMSE estimators for a 64 sub-carrier OFDM model

Here is a simulation based proof highlighting the superiority of the MMSE[Min Mean Sq Error] channel estimator over the LS[Least Sq] estimator.The two parameters of evaluation turn out to be, quite logically, the SER[Symbol Error Rate] and the Mean Square Error.The channel is assumed to be g(t)=delta(t-0.5 Ts)+delta(t-3.5 Ts)
{Fractionally spaced}.
