Techniques are provided to compute beamforming weights at a communication device, e.g., a first communication device, based on transmissions received at a plurality of antennas from another communication device, e.g., a second communication device. A plurality of transmissions are received at the plurality of antennas of the first communication device from the second communication device. A covariance matrix associated with reception of a plurality of transmissions at the plurality of antennas of the first communication device is computed. Corresponding elements (e.g., all the rows or all the columns) of the covariance matrix are combined to produce a weighted channel signature vector. A receive beamforming weight vector is computed from the weighted channel signature vector.
