Abstract

A method for communication includes receiving a signal carrying data including multiple data units using at least first and second reception channels. The data units are encoded with first and second codes such that, when the data units are arranged in rows and columns, the rows are encoded with the first code and the columns are encoded with the second code. The data units received by the first and second reception channels are selectively combined to produce composite data, which includes at least one row or column that includes a first data unit received from the first reception channel and at least a second data unit received from the second reception channel. The first and second codes for the composite data are decoded, including the at least one row or column, so as to reconstruct the data.
