Abstract

In the previous chapter we have discussed the achievable rate with iterative code-aided channel estimation. As it has already been stated there, also this approach is not optimal, as it is based on a coherent detection metric, i.e., the detection is performed symbol-wise, although the channel estimation error is temporally correlated. Therefore, in the present chapter we study the achievable rate with an optimal joint processing of pilot and data symbols. This means that we assume an optimal receiver processing without any restriction to a coherent, i.e., symbol-wise detection.
