Abstract :
This paper describes detection algorithms for coded and uncoded M-PSK signals transmitted over frequency-flat fading channels. Fading distortion is estimated with per-survivor methods using the outputs of two receive filters. The proposed algorithms do not require information on the fading statistics and are dubbed blind algorithms. The error-rate performance is assessed by simulation for uncoded and trellis-coded PSK and is compared with the performance of previously proposed detection schemes
