This paper considers a wireless coherent system that enables high-speed-data transmission in the presence of carrier phase error over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. Carrier phase noise is caused by imperfect carrier tracking of the coherent demodulation. The channel characteristics of the system were modeled using phase noise whose stochastic process followed the Tikhonov distribution. For this model, we first propose an optimum detector that produces the most suitable decoding metric for a soft-input/soft-output (SISO) decoder, and then develop some simpler forms of the optimum detector to obtain efficient implementation at close to optimal performance. Those simple detectors that have a wide range of performance/complexity tradeoffs are promising in various applications. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed detectors, we have applied them to a bandwidth-efficient turbo-coded modulation scheme in which a component decoder based on 5150 principles necessitates more exact channel measurement than is possible with a conventional decoder based on Viterbi decoding. Simulation results have demonstrated that the optimum detector enables excellent bit error rate (BER) performance that exceeds that with a normal detector designed for AWGN channels by more than 1 dB at a BER of 10^<-6> under a severe phase noise environment.
