Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A communications system including a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter transmits a signal with normal data symbols and at least one dual-use data symbol, where the dual-use data symbol has user data and more data protection than the normal data symbols. The receiver receives the transmitted signal and decodes the dual-use data symbol and uses information from decoding of the dual-use data symbol to improve a channel estimate for the normal data symbols.
