In this paper a new method for the detection of pilot contamination attacks is proposed. The approach relies on the use of legitimate pilots from a shifted constellation and successfully overcomes all the problems related to the detection capabilities of a recently-developed method using two random training pilots. Our proposed method deals with the values of pilot offsets and the relation between legitimate constellations.
