A method of reception of signals transmitted by a FBMC transmitter using a block Alamouti coding. After demodulation in a base band, the received signal is sampled, with the sample blocks undergoing a sliding FFT before being de-multiplexed towards a first path during a first use of the channel and a second path during a second use of the channel. The vectors received on the first path are multiplied by a first and a second transfer matrix, conjugated to provide first and second vectors. The vectors received on a second path undergo time-reversal and complex conjugation and, if appropriate, multiplication by an imaginary factor, depending on the size of the blocks. The vectors thus obtained are multiplied by first and second transfer matrices to provide third and fourth vectors. The first and fourth (second and third vectors) are then combined and the combined vector is filtered and spectrally de-spread to give an estimate of the block transmitted by the first (second) antenna of the transmitter during the first use of the channel.
