Abstract
A method and apparatus for generating a reference signal for use in an alternating projection loop which is part of demodulation in a base station of a wireless communication system, the reference signal relaxed to minimize the effects of frequency offset and amplitude variations, the base station including an array of antennas. The alternating projection loop demodulates in the presence of co-channel interference and includes correction for time alignment and/or frequency offset.
