Feedback of decoded data characteristics

An iterative method to cancel interfering signals from a received data signal to recover a transmitted data signal, the method comprising:

• receiving a data signal subject to interference from multiple interfering signals;
• identifying an interfering signal having a largest probability (Per) that the interfering signal will affect a signal of interest within the received data signal;
• generating an interferer weight coefficient associated with the interfering signal;
• canceling the interfering signal from the received data signal using the interferer weight coefficient;
• iteratively repeating the above steps for successive interfering signals until predetermined criteria are met;
• and
• recovering the transmitted data signal from the received data signal.

A receiver operable to recover a transmitted data signal subject to interfering signal(s), the receiver comprising:

• an antenna element operable to receive a data signal subject to the interfering signal(s);
• a processing module coupled to the antenna element, the processing module operable to:
• .identify a first interfering signal within the received data signal;
• generate an interferer weight coefficient associated with the first interfering signal;
• cancel the first interfering signal from the received data signal using the interferer weight coefficient;
• and
• recover the transmitted data signal from the received data signal.
