Abstract: We consider a block fading frequency selective multi-input multi-output (MIMO) channel in additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN). The channel input is a training vector superimposed on a linearly precoded vector of Gaussian symbols. This form of precoding is referred to as {\it affine precoding}. We derive theCramer-Rao bound (CRB) under two circumstances: the randomparameter vector to be estimated contains $(i)$ only fadingchannel coefficients, $(ii)$ unknown data symbols as well as thechannel coefficients. While case $(i)$ corresponds to the decoding schemes in which the channel is estimated first and the channel measurement is utilized to recover the data symbols, case $(ii)$ corresponds to methods in which channel and symbol estimation is performed jointly. The interesting outcome of our investigation is that minimizing trace of the channel CRB for cases $(i)$ and $(ii)$ under a total transmit power constraint leads to different affine precoder design guidelines.
