ABSTRACT:
A spread spectrum communications system includes an antenna array for receiving different summations of desired and undesired signals, and receivers are coupled to the antenna array. Each receiver operates based upon a respective channel code for de-spreading the desired and undesired signals for determining at least one desired signal associated with the respective channel code, and for combining the at least one desired signal and the undesired signals after the de-spreading. A processor is coupled to the receivers for forming a mixing matrix based upon the combined signals from each receiver, with entries on a diagonal of the mixing matrix corresponding to the desired signals and entries adjacent the diagonal corresponding to the undesired signals. The processor also processes the mixing matrix so that a level of the desired signals increases and a level of the undesired signals decreases. A demodulator is coupled to the processor for demodulating at least one desired signal.
