In this paper, we consider a new one-way two-hop amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying scheme with a tensor space-time coding under frequency-selective fading channels. The signals received at the destination of the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system define a 6-order tensor which satisfies a tensor-train decomposition (TTD). We propose a new TTD based receiver for a joint channel and symbol estimation. The proposed receiver avoids the use of long training sequences and resort to very few pilots to provide unique estimates of the individual channel matrices and the symbol matrix. Numerical simulations show the performance of the new proposed TTD-based semi-blind receiver.
