contents We consider the channel acquisition problem for a wideband terahertz (THz) communication system, where an extremely large-scale array is deployed to mitigate severe path attenuation. In channel modeling, we account for both the near-field spherical wavefront and the wideband beam-splitting phenomena, resulting in a wideband near-field channel. We propose a frequency-independent orthogonal dictionary that generalizes the standard discrete Fourier transform (DFT) matrix by introducing an additional parameter to capture the near-field property. This dictionary enables the wideband near-field channel to be efficiently represented with a two-dimensional (2D) block-sparse structure. Leveraging this specific sparse structure, the wideband near-field channel estimation problem can be effectively addressed within a customized compressive sensing framework. Numerical results demonstrate the significant advantages of our proposed 2D block-sparsity-aware method over conventional polar-domain-based approaches for near-field wideband channel estimation.
