Abstract
A system and method for transmitter and receiver operation for multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) communications based on prior channel knowledge are provided. A method for receiver operations includes receiving a data block, determining if there is confidence in information related to a channel, detecting data in the data block with a first detector in response to determining that there is confidence in the information, and detecting the data in the data block with a second detector in response to determining that there is no confidence in the information. The data block is received over the channel.
