Abstract
An apparatus for decoding a received plurality of multi-path signals to recover the data content of transmitted signals may include an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit may be configured to generate a logarithm likelihood ratio based on a received plurality of multi-path signals, where the received plurality of multi-path signals is representative of transmitted data content. The integrated circuit may be further configured to arrange coefficients of an expression generated based on the received plurality of multi-path signals and integrate the expression. The integrated circuit may be further configured to divide the integrated expression by prior information. As a result, the integrated circuit may be configured to receive the plurality of multi-path signals and decode the signals via integration. Associated methods and computer program products may also be provided.
