Method for processing radio signals that are subject to unwanted change during propagation
First Claim
1. A method for processing received radio signals that are subject to unwanted change during propagation, the method comprising the steps of:
- transmitting radio signals through the atmosphere;
subjecting the radio signals to modification as a result of conditions prevailing during propagation from a transmitter to an antenna array at a receiver;
receiving multiple cochannel radio signals at the antenna array; and
processing the received signals to eliminate the effects of modification of the signals during propagation, wherein the processing step includes cumulant-based signal recovery without regard for the geometrical properties of the antenna array.

Abstract
A method for processing received radio signals that are subject to unwanted change during propagation through the atmosphere, from a transmitter to a receiver array. The multiple signals are received as cochannel signals at the antenna array, and are processed to eliminate the effects of modification of the signals during propagation, wherein the processing step includes cumulant-based signal recovery without regard for the geometrical properties of the antenna array. In the invention as disclosed, two different information signals having two different polarization states are transmitted, and at least one of the transmitted signals is subjected to an unwanted change of its polarization state. The received signals are processed to separate and recover the two information signals without regard to their polarization states.
