When more than two layers are multiplexed in one CDM group, length-4 OCC has to be used across both clusters in one subframe. This means that slot-by-slot channel estimation according to conventional schemes cannot be exploited and Doppler impact cannot be well overcome. By introducing virtual variables and virtual channel samples that are used in processing two time slots in a subframe independently and applying a frequency domain filter based on the virtual variables and then performing postprocessing based on virtual channel samples, slot-by-slot processing is possible to reduce latency and overcome Doppler impact. Code de-spreading of length-4 OCC is no longer processed in time domain, but in frequency domain with two adjacent CDM subgroups. As a result, the frequency domain filtering can start earlier whereby detection latency and processing time for OCC of length longer than 2 is reduced. It can also be used for the length-2 OCC.
