1. Apparatus for processing at least two received signals, said apparatus comprising:
N separators each associated with a respective one of N input signals derived from said at least two received signals, N is at least 1, each of said N separators configured to generate a first separated signal and a second separated signal representing an at least one first signal and an at least one second signal respectively of said at least two received signals, said at least two received signals were transmitted from at least one transmit antenna at a common transmitter end, said transmitted signals were formed by transmitting said at least one first signal and said at least one second signal in a common frequency channel, a first adder configured to generate a first adder output signal that is a function of the sum of the products of i) each representation of said first separated signal of each one of said N separators with ii) a respective one of a plurality of first weights associated with that said representation of that said first separated signal, each said representation of each said first separated signal is one of one or more shifted output signals that are shifted versions of the associated said first separated signal that include respective different time delay shifts or respective different phase shifts, each time delay shift is at least zero, each phase shift magnitude is at least zero, said plurality of first weights are determined in such a way as to reduce interference in a particular type of signal that said apparatus was designed to process, a second adder configured to generate a second adder output signal that is a function of the sum of the products of i) each representation of said second separated signal of each one of said N separators with ii) a respective one of a plurality of second weights associated with that said representation of that said second separated signal, each said representation of each said second separated signal is one of one or more shifted output signals that are shifted versions of the associated said second separated signal that include respective different time delay shifts or respective different phase shifts, each time delay shift is at least zero, each phase shift magnitude is at least zero, each one of said plurality of second weights is derived from at least the associated one of said plurality of first weights. |
