System and method for reducing interference in wireless communication systems

A system and method for mitigating interference in a physical layer is disclosed. The system may include a transmitter configured to transmit a message, the message having appended to it an interference signal and a receiver configured to receive the message from the transmitter. The receiver may also include a singular value decomposition filter receiver into which the message is input, the singular value decomposition filter receiver configured to use singular value decomposition data from the interference signal to recover the message from the transmitter while substantially eliminating the interference signal. The interference signal may be co-channel with the message and/or the interference signal may be dominant to the message.
