Abstract
The present disclosure relates to radio network communication. In one of its aspects, the present disclosure relates to a method, performed by a first APU, for sequential receive combining in a radio stripe system. The system comprises at least two APUs connected in series to a CPU and serves at least two UEs. According to the method, channel estimates for channels to said served UEs are received and based on these, a receive combining filter is determined. The receive combining filter is to be applied to received data signals. Thereafter, based on the obtained channel estimates and the determined receive combining filter, effective channels from said served UEs are determined. These represent the effective channel created after the receive combining filter being applied to each channel for said served UEs. The effective channels are transmitted from said served UEs to at least one subsequent second APU.
