Abstract
A receiver for receiving an input signal is disclosed. The receiver includes a processor, a memory, a plurality of sub-receivers configured to receive a plurality of versions of the input signal through a plurality of transmission channels, a sub-receiver selection module configured to select one more of the plurality of sub-receivers using expected contributions to signal-to-noise (SNR) of an output signal based on an uncertainty of the estimated contributions. The receiver also includes a combiner to combine outputs of the selected sub-receivers to produce the output signal.
