Abstract
A method and apparatus comprises acquiring set of input streams associated with a spatial layer configured for a terminal device, and estimating a channel vector h representing a radio channel response associated with the spatial layer. An interference covariance matrix R representing power of interference is computed from at least one other spatial layer in the set of input streams and correlation of the interference within the set of input streams of the spatial layer. A per-layer interference rejection is performed, combining equalization on the set of input streams, comprising: a) estimating x=R−1h as a combination of a set of linear equations, wherein the number of linear equations is defined by an input parameter to be equal to or smaller than dimensions of the interference covariance matrix; and b) computing an estimate of a transmitted symbol on the basis of the channel vector and the estimated x.
