Abstract
A data receiver (110) for processing multiple signals includes a receiving circuit (120) for demodulating at least first and second signals and a selector (125) coupled to the receiving circuit (120) for comparing the at least first and second signals to estimated peak and valley values. The selector (125) generates error values associated with the at least first and second signals and selects a data symbol associated with one of the estimated peak and valley values based on the error values. A timing circuit (140, 150) activates the selector (125) at predetermined times, and a controller (140) coupled to the selector (125) and the timing circuit (140, 150) recovers information in accordance with the data symbol and other data symbols.
