Abstract
A receiver configured for: a) receiving () a first OFDM symbol and generating a plurality of demodulated symbols for the first OFDM symbol; b) generating () decoder output code symbols corresponding to a subset of the plurality of demodulated symbols; c) determining () that a set of the decoder output code symbols make up a set of reference symbols corresponding to at least a portion of the subset of the plurality of demodulated symbols; d) generating () the set of reference symbols; e) generating () a set of channel estimates based on the set of reference symbols and the at least a portion of the subset of the plurality of demodulated symbols, for use in decoding a current OFDM symbol; and f) repeating steps b-e until a channel estimate for each demodulated symbol corresponding to the first OFDM symbol has been generated.
