A communication receiver improves its channel estimation performance, its equalization performance, or both, by modeling the non-Gaussian characteristics of a dominant source of interference in a received signal. That is, rather than using Gaussian-based modeling, the receiver generates signal disturbance estimates using a probabilistic model representative of the non-Gaussian interference in a received signal, such as adjacent channel or co-channel signal interference in mobile station operating within a wireless communication network. The receiver may use such non-Gaussian interference modeling responsive to detecting such interference in the received signal and may match its disturbance model to the detected interference. Further, where signal disturbance is predominantly Gaussian in nature, the receiver may switch to a Gaussian disturbance model. |
