Abstract
Described is a method and device for processing a signal received at an uplink control information (UCI) receiver in a wireless communication system. The method comprises processing a signal received on an uplink (UL) at said UCI receiver to transform said received signal into a likelihood calculation of possible transmitted codewords (θ). The likelihood calculation of possible transmitted codewords (θ) may comprise a multi-dimensional discrete Fourier transform (DFT) (θ) of said received signal. The multi-dimensional may be formed as a Hadamard Transform. The method includes determining a maximum magnitude θvalue from said likelihood calculation of possible transmitted codewords (θ) and then comparing said θvalue to a selected, calculated or predetermined scaled threshold c·τ where τ is a threshold and c is a scaling factor for the threshold τ. The comparison is such that, where θ>c·τ, it is determined that the signal received on the UL at said UCI receiver comprises a linear block encoded signal. In some cases, the scaling factor c may be omitted.
