Abstract

A communication device is described comprising a receiver configured to receive a receive symbol vector resulting from a transmission of a transmit symbol vector from at least one transmitter to the receiver wherein the transmit symbol vector comprises a plurality of transmit symbols wherein each transmit symbol is associated with a modulation type and a detector configured to determine a detection order for the plurality of transmit symbols based on the modulation types and to determine, for at least one bit of at least one transmit symbol, at least one soft value based on the receive symbol vector according to the detection order.
