For digital transmitters decoding and re-encoding the digital signal allows the reconstruction of a noise-free replica of it. With increasing disturbances in the reference signal the error rate of the decoded information increases and leads to an inaccurate reference signal. We propose a method to use diverse reception from multiple sensors to optimize the reconstructed reference signal. Simulations and results from a multi-sensor system located in a wind park demonstrate its potential.enconference paper
