A device may obtain a sequence of input samples. The device may further obtain a first set of sequences, which may be based on discrete prolate spheroidal sequences associated with eigenvalues having a value larger than a first threshold. The device may determine a first projected sample sequence comprising a projection of the sequence of input samples to the first set of sequences and generate a signal based on the first projected sample sequence. Another device may determine a window of received samples of the signal and project the window of received samples to the first set of sequences or filter the window of received samples to obtain a first sample sequence. The detection of the received signal may then be performed based on the first sample sequence.
