Abstract:
1. A method of decoding a signal comprising: receiving, at a receiver, a signal vector, wherein the received signal vector comprises a first signal vector received at a first symbol period and a second signal vector received at a second symbol period; determining a first varying channel response matrix for the first signal vector and a second varying channel response matrix for the second signal vector, wherein the first varying channel response matrix and the second varying channel response matrix characterize a channel in a respective symbol period; processing the first signal vector with the first varying channel response matrix interval and the second signal vector with the second varying channel response matrix; generating a combined varying channel response comprising a linear combination of the first varying channel response matrix and the second varying channel response matrix; factorizing the combined varying channel response; processing the factorized combined varying channel response with the first processed signal vector and the second processed signal vector to generate a combined signal vector; and decoding the combined signal vector.
