A receiver includes an antenna array that generates received signals from a first remote transmitter and a second remote transmitter, the antenna array having a beam pattern that is controllable based a control signal. A plurality of receiver sections process the received signals to generate down-converted signals. A receiver processing module, generates the control signal to control the beam pattern to a first pattern during a first time period for reception from the first remote transmitter, generates a first reception estimate based on the down-converted signals during the first time period, generates the control signal to control the beam pattern to a second pattern during a second time period for reception from the second remote transmitter, generates a second reception estimate based on the down-converted signals during the second time period, and generates inbound data based on the first reception estimate and the second reception estimate.
