Abstract
The present disclosure includes systems and techniques relating to processing received spatially diverse transmissions. In some implementations, an apparatus includes: circuitry configured to receive signals from separate communication inputs; circuitry configured to filter the signals to reduce noise, interference, or both; circuitry configured to estimate covariance of the separate communication inputs, including estimating a correlation between the separate communication inputs; and circuitry configured to apply the covariance estimation to the filtering circuitry to effect noise whitening and to force an underestimation of the correlation between the separate communication inputs as applied.
