Abstract
The method of channel estimation generates an initial channel estimate from a pilot signal in a received signal, and estimates the data in the received signal using the channel estimate. An updated channel estimate is then obtained from the estimated data. This process of estimating the data and re-estimating the channel estimate is reiterated a desired number of times to refine the accuracy of the channel estimate.
