Abstract
There is provided a device and method for demodulating a pulse amplitude modulated, hereinafter referred to as PAM, signal. The device comprises memory storing a set of boundaries of regions in which the log likelihood ratio, hereinafter referred to as LLR, for each bit to be determined is represented by a linear function of the received signal, along with the properties of the linear function for each bit for each region; and a controller. The controller is configured to: receive a PAM signal to be demodulated; determine which region the signal falls within; for each bit to be determined, retrieve the properties of the linear function for the LLR for the bit within the determined region and determine, from this linear function, the LLR value for the bit; and demodulate the signal based on the determined LLR values.
