Abstract
An apparatus and digital signal processing means are disclosed for excision of co-channel interference from signals received in crowded or hostile environments using spatial/polarization diverse arrays, which reliably and rapidly identifies signals with transmitted features that are almost-periodic over known framing intervals, and exploits those features to develop diversity combining weights that substantively extract those signals from that environment, based on differing diversity signature, timing offset, and carrier offset of those signals. In one embodiment, the signal identification and extraction is performed in an appliqué that can be implemented without coordination with an actual radio transceiver.
