Abstract: A multiple-input multiple (MIMO) communication model is integrated to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) for reliable and data transmission at a higher rate in the broadband wireless channels. A significant part in the wireless data transmission is use of adaptive channel estimation techniques in which the channel is frequently varying. This paper introduces a hybrid adaptive channel estimation technique by integrating the beneficial characteristics of the time domain as well as frequency domain. The column based time domain and the row based frequency domain are combined together and they are used based on the channel quality and received bit error rate (BER). Here, the channel estimation at pilot frequencies depends on minimum mean square error (MMSE). For the evaluation of the proposed techniques, a set of experiments and detailed comparative analysis is made interms of different measures under different condition. The experimental results depicted the proposed method outperforms the other methods.
