Abstract
The present invention describes a channel equalizer and a method for channel equalization in a receiver in a multi-user communication system. The method comprises the steps of receiving a signal with at least two antennas to produce at least two antenna input streams, measuring the temporal of each antenna input stream and the spatial correlation between the antenna input streams, determining a user-independent pre-equalization filter from the temporal and spatial correlation, filtering the antenna input streams with the pre-equalization filter, and finally inputting the filtered signal to a user-dependent receiver configured to detect the received data symbols of a given user.
