Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for identifying a desired signal and suppressing co-channel interference in real-time from a signal received over a wireless channel are disclosed. For example, the method, by a circuit, determines values of a first set of terms of a cost function that are based on received data, the cost function being a measure of a level of the received data being non-Gaussian, determines, by the circuit, optimal values of a set of weight vectors for maximizing the cost function, identifies, by the circuit, a desired signal based on the optimal values of the set of weight vectors and the values of the first set of terms, and decodes, by a channel decoder coupled to the circuit, a channel of the desired signal that is identified.
