In this paper, by utilizing the temporal correlation of wireless channels, a hierarchical basis expansion model (HBEM) based estimation scheme is proposed for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing systems over doubly selective channel, where the complex exponential basis expansion model (CE-BEM) is used to extract the channel impulse response and the discrete Legendre polynomials BEM is used to refine the CE-BEM coefficients to improve the performance of channel estimation. We design a non-periodic sparse pilot pattern, and hence only scarce subcarriers of a small number of pilots are required for channel estimation, resulting a training overhead reduction of around 50% over the previous CE-BEM based schemes. A block-based signal space matching pursuit algorithm is proposed to enhance the estimation accuracy of CE-BEM coefficients. Furthermore, the proposed HBEM scheme enables a reduction in the number of estimated CE-BEM coefficients by more than 50%, compared to the previous work. A lower bound on the mean square error (MSE) of the proposed HBEM scheme is derived. Simulation results show that the proposed HBEM scheme significantly outperforms the previous CE-BEM based schemes in terms of MSE of channel estimation and bit error rate.
