Abstract: A method for reducing an inter-cell interference (ICI) and an inter-antenna interference (IAI) in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes generating a first candidate signal list and a second candidate signal list, wherein the first candidate signal list relates to transmission data signals, and the second candidate signal list relates to interference signals; processing, via a detector, a first loop operation, and processing, via a decoder, a second loop operation, to update the first candidate signal list and the second candidate signal list; and after iteratively processing the first loop operation and the second loop operation, utilizing the updated first candidate signal list and the updated second candidate signal list to recover the transmission data signal with less complexity and latency.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for cell search and synchronization for subscriber stations of the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system. The invention uses primary synchronizing signal of primary synchronization code in each frame structure to establish synchronization with the base station when a subscriber station accesses the LTE network. With such synchronization between the subscriber station and the base station, control signals and transmission data may be correctly exchanged between them.
