  • receiving spatially diverse signals;

    separately demodulating each of the spatially diverse signals;

    selecting a most correct of the demodulated signals; and

    forwarding the selected demodulated signal for further processing;

    wherein;

    said step of selecting comprises, performing FEC decoding on codewords contained in each of the spatially divese signals, and selecting decoded codewords that have been successfully FEC decoded; and

    if both of said spatially divese signals contain pairs of codewords that have been successfully FEC decoded, then selecting both decoded codewords.
