<p>A cell handoff signal processing system (200) including Base Transceiver System channel elements (204, 206) that receive multiple RF signals corresponding to a common RF signal containing user data transmitted by a wireless communications device (104). The multiple RF signals are received by antennas associated with different communications cells (230, 232) that are located at geographically separated antenna towers (120a, 120b). The at least one single base transceiver channel element (204) receives RF signals from geographically separated antenna towers (120a, 120b) through cell to channel element link (260) and simultaneously processes these multiple RF signals that were received at the geographically separated antenna towers (120a, 120b) so as to extract the user data transmitted by the wireless communications device (104).</p> |
