Upon receiving spatially independent OFDM signals from multiple transmit antennas coupled to a single transmitter, a receiver comprising multiple receive antennas operably coupled to multiple RF chains adjusts phase and/or gain of a portion of signal components received over multiple receive antennas coupled to the same RF chain. A combined channel estimate for the RF chain is generated using corresponding frequency domain samples of the adjusted signal components. Individual channel estimates are generated from the generated combined channel estimate. Phase rotation and/or gain adjustment information are determined to adjust signal components received over additional receive antennas coupled to the RF chain. The phase and/or gain adjusted signal components are combined with signal components over a selected reference receive antenna coupled to the RF chain for RF processing. The RF processed signal components are converted into corresponding frequency domain samples to generate individual channel estimates for the phase rotation and/or gain adjustment.
