Claim One:
1. A method of detecting data in a received multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) signal, the method comprising: receiving, via a transmission channel, N signals from N respective antennas, the received signals being associated with (i) M sets of data values, (ii) a set of symbols, and (iii) a set of carrier frequencies; forming the N signals into a received signal vector y and performing one or more transformations on the received signal vector y to obtain a transformed vector; forming a plurality of samples from the transformed vector, each sample of the plurality of samples being associated with (i) a spatial stream of a set of spatial streams, (ii) a symbol of the set of symbols, and (iii) a carrier frequency of the set of carrier frequencies; selecting, for samples of the plurality of samples, a data detection technique of a plurality of data detection techniques to be used in detecting data of a given sample, the selecting being based on at least one of the spatial stream, the symbol, and the carrier frequency associated with the given sample; and using the selected data detection technique to detect data of the given sample.
