Abstract

An electronic receiver may generate a differential detection sequence based on a received symbol sequence and based on a m-symbol delayed version of the received symbol sequence, where m is an integer greater than 1. The particular differential detection sequence may be a result of an element-by-element multiplication of the particular received symbol sequence and the conjugate of an m-symbol delayed version of the particular received symbol sequence. The receiver may calculate differential decision metrics based on the differential detection sequence and based on a set of differential symbol sequences generated from the set of possible transmitted symbol sequences. The receiver may generate a decision as to which of a set of possible transmitted symbol sequences resulted in the received symbol sequence, where the decision is based on the differential decision metrics and the set of possible transmitted symbols sequences.
