description In OFDM wireless communications, channel estimation performance is compromised in high-speed railway environments owing to extremely fast multipath fading and severe Doppler effect. Recently, a deep learning approach has been employed to improve the channel estimation performance, however it encounters significant challenges due to its high computational complexity. In order to deal with these challenges, this paper proposes channel estimation employing deep learning with one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D CNN) schemes to enhance conventional least squares (LS) estimation. The first scheme provides better performance compared to conventional LS estimation. However, it is only suitable for OFDM systems with full pilot symbols, leading to decreased transmission efficiency and high complexity. In order to address those problems, the second scheme develops 1D CNN-based channel estimation employing scattered pilot symbols to enhance transmission efficiency and reduce computational complexity. In comparison to conventional LS estimation and deep learning-based channel estimation with bi-gated recurrent unit (bi-GRU), the performance evaluation demonstrates that the proposed 1D CNN-based schemes simultaneously improve channel estimation performance, transmission efficiency, and reduce computational complexity.
