We formulate antenna impedance estimation in a classical estimation framework under correlated Raleigh fading channels. Based on training sequences of multiple packets, we derive the ML estimators for antenna impedance and channel variance, treating the fading path gains as nuisance parameters. These ML estimators can be found via scalar optimization. We explore the efficiency of these estimators against Cramer-Rao lower bounds by numerical examples. The impact of channel correlation on impedance estimation accuracy is investigated.
