This paper proposes new algorithms for joint iterative decoding and parameter estimation in Bayesian and nonBayesian method. The low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes in the presence of phase noise is focused in this paper. The nonBayesian algorithm for an unknown phase channel is based on the application of the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm. The proposed Bayesian algorithms are obtained as an application of the sum-product algorithm to the factor graph. Comparing the performance of the considered algorithms in the case of LDPC code, the EM-KL (EM-Karhunen-Loeve) algorithm performs better than EM-SW (sliding window) algorithm.
