In a wireless communications system having a transmitter that transmits a transmit diversity signal using multiple antennas, a channel quality metric is computed by measuring a first and second diversity branch signal quality for first and second diversity branches in the receiver. Thereafter, the channel quality metric is computed in response to a difference between the first and second diversity branch signal qualities. The first and second diversity branch signal quality measurements may be signal-to-noise measurements. In one embodiment, the channel quality metric is computed by taking a square root of a product of signal-to-noise ratios of the first and second diversity branches in the receiver.
