Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation has attracted substantial attention recently due to its great potential of providing reliable communications in high-mobility scenarios. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid signal detection algorithm for OTFS modulation. By characterizing the input-output relationship of OTFS modulation, we derive the near-optimal symbol-wise maximum a posteriori (MAP) detection algorithm for OTFS modulation, which aims to extract the information of each transmitted symbol based on the corresponding related received symbols. Furthermore, in order to reduce the detection complexity, we propose a partitioning rule that separates the related received symbols into two subsets for detecting each transmitted symbol, according to the corresponding path gains. We then introduce a hybrid detection algorithm to exploit the power discrepancy of each subset, where the MAP detection is applied to the subset with larger channel gains, while the parallel interference cancellation (PIC) detection is applied to the subset with smaller channel gains. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithms can not only approach the performance of the near-optimal symbol-wise MAP algorithms, but also offer a substantial performance gain compared with existing algorithms.
