Abstract

A device is configured to calculate a set of channel estimates for a plurality of sub-carriers based on a plurality of pilot-symbols and/or data-symbols carried by said plurality of sub-carriers; calculate a set of equalizers for the plurality of sub-carriers based on the set of channel estimates; perform an equalization on a plurality of data-symbols using the set of equalizers for obtaining a plurality of equalized symbols; perform a soft-slicing or hard-slicing procedure comprising obtaining a plurality of estimated symbols based on the equalized symbols; calculate at least one diagonal-loaded interference-plus-noise covariance matrix, based on the set of estimated symbols; de-map the plurality of data symbols to soft-bits, based on the at least one diagonal-loaded interference-plus-noise covariance matrix, the set of channel estimates or an updated version thereof; and feed the soft-bits to a channel decoder.
