A syndrome calculator is configured to determine a set of syndromes from the at least three input messages using at least two elementary check node processors. A decorrelation unit is configured to determine, in association with at least an output message, a set of candidate components from the set of syndromes. A selection unit is configured to determine at least an output message by selecting components comprising distinct symbols from the set of candidate components associated with the at least an output message.
