Blind detection of CPM signals transmitted over frequency-flat fading channels

We propose a novel detection scheme for continuous-phase modulation (CPM) signals transmitted over frequency-flat fading channels. Its most significant feature is that it operates without statistical information on the fading channel, and for this reason it is nicknamed "blind detector." Its error-rate performance is assessed with minimum shift keying (MSK) and Gaussian MSK (GMSK) schemes and compared with the performance of other decoders.
