- The use of multiple Reconfigurable Intelligent Sur- faces (RIS) has gained attention in 6G networks to enhance coverage. However, the feasibility of deploying multiple RIS relies on efficient channel estimation and reduced pilot overhead. To address these challenges, this work proposes an iterative channel estimation scheme that exploits low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, channel coherence time, and iterative processing to improve estimation accuracy while minimizing pilot length. Encoded pilots are used to strengthen the iterative processing, leveraging both pilot and parity bits, while previous estimates are incorporated to further reduce overhead. Simulations consider a sub-6 GHz scenario with non-sparse channels and multiple RIS under both LOS and NLOS conditions. The results show that the proposed method outperforms existing approaches, achieving significant gains with substantially lower pilot overhead.
