Abstract
A method includes receiving at a receiver circuit a composite signal including non-interfered data resource elements and interfered data resource elements from a plurality of radio cells, and determining a first mutual information metric based on the non-interfered data resource elements. The method further includes determining a second mutual information metric based on the interfered data resource elements, and determining effective mutual information based on a combination of the first mutual information metric and the second mutual information metric.
