Time division synchronization orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (TDS-OFDM) has been attractive due to its fast synchronization and efficient spectral efficiency over conventional cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and zero padding OFDM. However, inter-block interference (IBI) affects its performance because of delay over multipath channels. To evade IBI, dual pseudo-random noise (DPN) sequences have been introduced that causes to reduce spectral and energy efficiency. But, DPN is unprepared for underwater acoustic (UWA) communication because of battery-based nature and limited bandwidth. To overcome these issues, this paper exploits compressive sensing theory algorithm for obtaining the time-varying channel state information by utilizing sparse property of UWA channels. In this paper, the IBI free region is utilized to estimate accurate UWA channel impulse response and mitigate its interference. Look-ahead backtracking orthogonal matching pursuit-based sparse channel estimation technique is proposed for underwater TDS-OFDM in a real sparse time-varying multipath channel (channel taps are randomly distributed). Furthermore, Doppler-shift of UWA channel is estimated and compensated by PN sequence in time domain. The performance of the proposed technique is evaluated and demonstrated through numerical computation of bit error rate (BER) and mean square error (MSE) using Monte Carlo iterations. Simulation analysis confirms the superiority of the proposed scheme not only in terms of BER and MSE over the conventional ones but also achieve high energy and spectral efficiency.
