Definition

An approach to estimating the transmission channel that does not use dedicated pilot symbols; instead it infers channel characteristics from properties of the received signal (statistical structure, cyclostationarity, modulation constraints, higher‑order statistics, or sparsity) and assumptions about the transmitted data or channel.
