Summary

In this paper we describe a MAP sequence estimator for frequency-selective fast-fading channels. The estimator incorporates prior channel knowledge using a Gauss-Markov model of the FIR channel by marginalizing over the resulting channel coefficient joint probability density function. A computationally efficient PSP algorithm is also described, and its performance illustrated. With simulations, we consider the accuracy to which symbols can be estimate as influenced by the channel fading rate, and we study the sensitivity of the Gauss-Markov channel model based MAP estimator on inaccuracies in assumed model parameters.
