Receiver device and method of receiving a plurality of signals

摘要

A receiver device (12) and method (100) ofreceiving a plurality of signals are provided, wherein the receiver device (12) includes at least one antenna element (A 1 ...A N ), and circuitry (20) in communication with the at least one antenna element (A 1 ...A N ). The at least one antenna element (A 1 ...A N ) is configured to receive at least a first signal having a first polarization and a second signal having a second polarization, wherein the first polarization is different than the second polarization. The circuitry (20) is configured to process and emit an output (22) based upon at least one of the received first and second signals, wherein the first signal is received at a first reception elevation angle with respect to the at least one antenna element (A 1 ...A N ) that is greater than a second reception elevation angle of the second signal with respect to the at least one antenna element (A 1 ...A N ), and the first and second signals are transmitted at substantially the same frequency.
