RECEIVER AND RECEIVING METHOD FOR DEMULTIPLEXING MULTIPLEXED SIGNALS

摘要

A receiver comprises: means for splitting multiplexed complex baseband signals into a real component and an imaginary component; and means for calculating an estimated signal vector, said means for calculating an estimated signal vector: for one or more of the complex baseband signals, predetermining the real component to be one of possible signal point candidates and calculates an estimated signal value for the real component of another complex baseband signal based on the predetermined signal point candidate(s); and for said one or more of the complex baseband signals, predetermining the imaginary component to be one of possible signal point candidates and calculates an estimated signal value for the imaginary component of said other complex baseband signal based on the predetermined signal point candidate(s).
