China, Ser. F. 52, No. 6, 1067-1074 (2009).} \itemab Summary: Focusing on space-time block code (STBC) systems with unknown co-channel interference, an oblique projection-based robust linear receiver is proposed in this paper. Based on the oblique projection, the desired signal subspace and interference-plus-noise subspace are first identified from the received signal. Then the matched filter receiver is used to decode the STBC encoded signals in the desired signal subspace. Simulation results show that the proposed linear receiver obtains significant performance improvement over conventional Capon-type receivers under finite sample-size situations and in the presence of channel estimation errors. \itemrv{~} \itemcc{} \itemut{space time block code; linear receiver; oblique projection; co-channel interference; finite samples} \itemli{doi:10.1007/s11432-009-0113-x} \end
