Abstract
A diversity receiver (300) has improved diversity weighting parameter estimation. The receiver receives different versions of a signal (101) having encoded data, combines the versions and decodes the data contained within the combination. The decoded data output is then re-encoded using a similar technique as that at a transmitter which transmitted the signal (101). The re-encoded data is then used to calculate a diversity weighting parameter which is used to modify a stored replica each version. The modified versions are then combined and decoded to yield a more accurate estimate of the information contained within the signal (101) at diversity receiver (300).
