Abstract:
A technique, as well as select implementations thereof, pertaining to dual receive processing in wireless communications is described. The technique may involve receiving, by a plurality of receive processing modules, an incoming signal from an antenna to provide a plurality of processing results. The technique may also involve generating, by a determination mechanism, a determination output based on the plurality of processing results. The determination output may include either one or more decoding metrics based on a respective processing result from one of the plurality of receive processing modules or a weighted combination of more than one respective processing result from more than one receive processing module of the plurality of receive processing modules. The technique may further involve decoding, by a decoder, the determination output to provide a decoded signal.

Claim (Index 4):
A method, comprising:\n receiving, by a plurality of receive processing modules comprising at least a first receive processing module and a second receive processing module, an incoming signal from an antenna to provide a plurality of processing results; generating, by a determination mechanism, a determination output based on the plurality of processing results, the determination output comprising either one or more decoding metrics based on a respective processing result from one of the plurality of receive processing modules or a weighted combination of more than one respective processing result from more than one receive processing module of the plurality of receive processing modules; and decoding, by a decoder, the determination output to provide a decoded signal, wherein the generating of the determination output comprises:\n generating, by a plurality of weight calculation modules each of which corresponding to a respective one of the plurality of receive processing modules, weighting factors each of which generated based on a respective processing result from a respective one of the plurality of receive processing modules, the plurality of weight calculation modules comprising at least a first weight calculation module and a second weight calculation module corresponding to the first receive processing module and the second receive processing module, respectively; and \n generating, by a probability combining and decoding metric calculation module configured to receive the processing results from the plurality of receive processing modules and receive the weighting factors from the plurality of weight calculation modules, the determination output by performing log-likelihood ratio (LLR) combining before calculating one or more decoding metrics.
