  • Abstract
    Pilot symbol assisted modulation (PSAM) has been shown to give good performance in Rayleigh fading and additive noise. In cellular systems, though, it is cochannel interference, more than noise, that limits the system. The paper is the first analytical investigation of the performance of PSAM in fading, interference, and noise. The investigation yields both an exact solution and an accurate but much more computationally efficient approximation
