An embodiment of an arrangement for detecting sequences of digitally modulated symbols from multiple sources. The arrangement identifies a suitable set of candidate values for at least one transmitted sequence of symbols and determines for each candidate value a set of sequences of transmitted symbols. The arrangement estimates at least one further set of sequence of transmitted symbols, calculates a metric for each sequence of transmitted symbols and selects the sequence that maximizes the metric. At the end, a-posteriori bit soft output information for the selected sequence is calculated from the metrics for said sequences. Generally, these calculations are base on the information coming from a channel state information matrix and a-priori information on said modulated symbols from a second module, such as a forward error correction code decoder.
