Putting the main emphasis on investigating the application of non-blind and blind channel estimation approaches to the identification of a full rate data Traffic CHannel (TCH/F9.6), we present in this paper a new idea of an iterative channel estimation based upon the capabilities of channel coding. We will show that this method leads to a significantly improved performance especially for high speed propagations with Doppler frequencies up to 500 Hz. Giving the bit error rates (BERs) after channel decoding in terms of the Eb/N0 ratio, we show, furthermore, that blind channel estimation schemes could be as efficient as non-blind methods.}, booktitle={IEEE International Symposium on Personal and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC 2000)} }
