1. A method of iteratively decoding a data packet, comprising the steps of:

  • (a) applying decision feedback equalization (DFE) to the data packet during a first decoding iteration of the data packet; and

    (b) applying DFE to the data packet during a second iteration, wherein the DFE employs soft data generated for the data packet during the first iteration, wherein the soft data is generated by the step of decoding the data packet to which DFE is applied, the step of decoding being in accordance with a concatenated code.
