A wireless receiver (301) for receiving multiple space time encoded signals from a plurality of transmit antenna sets (TAT1 through TAT2, and TAT3 through TAT4), wherein the multiple space time encoded signals comprise a set of symbols and wherein each transmit antenna set is coupled to a corresponding encoder (221, 222) at a single transmitter (121). The receiver comprises a plurality of receive antennas (RAT1 through RATQ) and collection circuitry (32), coupled to the plurality of receive antennas, for collecting a plurality of signal samples for a plurality of successive time instances and from each of the plurality of receive antennas. The collected samples comprise samples of multipaths of the space time encoded signals. The receiver also comprises circuitry (34, 36), coupled to the plurality of receive antennas, for determining a linear time invariant multiple-input multiple-output matrix in response to pilot values in the received multiple space time encoded signals. Finally, the receiver comprise circuitry (40, 421, 441) for estimating at least selected ones of the symbols in response to the signal samples and the linear time invariant multiple-input multiple-output matrix.
