US Patent 11533203 Lattice reduction in wireless communication

Methods, systems and devices for lattice reduction in decision feedback equalizers for orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation are described. An exemplary wireless communication method, implementable by a wireless communication receiver apparatus, includes receiving a signal comprising information bits modulated using OTFS modulation scheme. Each delay-Doppler bin in the signal is modulated using a quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) mapping. The method also includes estimating the information bits based on an inverse of a single error covariance matrix of the signal, with the single error covariance matrix being representative of an estimation error for all delay-Doppler bins in the signal.
