Introduction
• Tensor-based receivers have been successfully used for joint symbol and channel
estimation in cooperative MIMO communications
• Previous works derived two-way cooperative MIMO receivers, most assuming
amplify-and-forward (AF) relays
• Proposal: a new closed-form semiblind receiver for a two-way DF relaying
system that:
1. avoids error propagation problems;
2. exploits a cross-coding structure that suppresses interference between sources
and simplifies the receiver.

4 × 104
Monte Carlo runs.
• Each run corresponds to a realization of all channel and symbol matrices, and
noise tensors
• Transmitted symbols are randomly drawn from a unit energy m-QAM symbol
alphabet
• Number of data symbols N = 4, of data-streams R = 2 and of antennas
Ms = Mr = 2
• Modulation order m and spreading length P are adjusted to ensure the same
transmission rate, equal to 4/5 bit per channel use
