Abstract

A reception apparatus including: a detection unit detecting extrinsic information based on a tentative symbol decision signal, a channel estimation signal, a noise variance estimation signal, and a received signal that are obtained from a previous iteration process; a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) aided channel decoding unit outputting an interleaved bit or a posteriori information thereof based on the extrinsic information; a tentative symbol decision unit determining a tentative transmission symbol based on an output of the CRC aided channel decoding unit; a channel estimation unit estimating a channel based on an output of the tentative symbol decision unit; and a noise variance estimation unit estimating a noise variance based on the output of the tentative symbol decision unit and an output of the channel estimation unit is provided.
