Abstract
A method is for processing an analog channel signal from a transmission channel. The analog channel signal conveys frames, the transmission channel being linear and cyclostationary for a duration of a frame. The method may include converting of the analog channel signal into a digital channel signal, and performing channel estimations for the frame based upon the digital channel signal to generate a sequence of N transfer functions of the transmission channel. Each of the sequence of N transfer functions may be respectively associated with N successive time slices. The method may include decoding at least some symbols of the frame using, for each of the symbols, a transfer function associated with a successive time slice including a respective symbol.
