Abstract :
We consider the optimal amount of training for single-antenna Rayleigh flat fading channels with peak-power- limited input. The receiver uses known training symbols to perform minimum mean square error (MMSE) channel estimation. With a block-fading channel model and a perfect interleaving assumption, we first analyze the characteristics of the optimum input distribution, then numerically compute the training-based capacity, and then find the optimal number of training symbols that maximizes the capacity.
