Abstract: Massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (Massive MIMO) technology has emerged as a key enabling solution for modern wireless communication systems due to its ability to improve spectral efficiency, network capacity, and communication reliability. Accurate channel estimation is essential for efficient signal detection, beamforming, and interference management in Massive MIMO environments. This paper presents a comparative performance analysis of Least Squares (LS) and Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) channel estimation techniques under Rayleigh fading channel conditions. MATLAB-based simulations are performed to evaluate estimation performance using Mean Square Error (MSE) and Bit Error Rate (BER) metrics over varying Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) levels. The simulation results demonstrate that both estimators improve as SNR increases. However, MMSE estimation consistently achieves lower estimation error and superior detection performance due to its utilization of channel statistical information. Although MMSE requires higher computational complexity, its robustness and improved estimation accuracy make it a suitable candidate for practical Massive MIMO deployments. The study highlights the trade-off between computational complexity and estimation performance while providing useful insights for next-generation wireless communication systems. Keywords—Massive MIMO, Channel Estimation, LS Estimation, MMSE Estimation, Rayleigh Fading, MSE, BER, Wireless Communication.
