Abstract
Methods and systems for processing signals in a receiver are disclosed herein and may comprise generating at least one channel estimate of a time varying impulse response for at least one of a plurality of received clusters within at least one received signal, where a cluster may comprise an aggregate of continuously processed received multipaths. The generated channel estimate may be transformed to at least one flat fading channel estimate utilizing at least one signal-to-noise ratio optimization algorithm. Complex waveforms, comprising in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components, may be processed for the plurality of received clusters within the received signal, and the processed complex waveforms may be filtered. The resulting filtered waveforms may be convolved with the generated channel estimate to generate a convolved input signal. A weight signal for the transforming may be generated, utilizing the at least one signal-to-noise ratio optimization algorithm and the generated convolved input signal.
