Abstract:
1. A diversity receiver comprising: a first RF front end module configured to receive a first RF signal and frequency convert the first RF signal and output a first diversity signal; a second RF front end module configured to receive a second RF signal and frequency convert the second RF signal and output a second diversity signal; a first converter configured to convert the first diversity signal to a first digital time-domain signal; a second converter configured to convert the second diversity signal to a second digital time-domain signal; a first transformer module for translating the first time-domain signal to a first frequency-domain signal; a second transformer module for translating the second time-domain signal to a second frequency-domain signal; a first pre-equalizer for pre-equalizing the first frequency-domain signal; a second pre-equalizer for pre-equalizing the second frequency-domain signal; and a combiner coupled to the first and second pre-equalizers and being configured to combine the first pre-equalized frequency-domain signal and the second pre-equalized frequency-domain signal.
