DIVERSITY RECEIVING APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

This research provides a diversity receiving apparatus and a method thereof. The apparatus includes a switching units for sequentially scanning a plurality of directional antennas based on a first control signal and selecting a directional antenna having an optimal channel impulse response based on a second control signal; a radio frequency (RF) front end units for converting an RF signal into a digital intermediate frequency (IF) signal; a demodulating units for demodulating the digital IF signal into a baseband signal; a diversity signal processing units for transmitting the first control signal to the switching units, selecting a beam output signal having the optimal channel impulse response and transmitting the second control signal to the switching unit to select the directional antenna corresponding to the beam output signal; and a channel equalizing unit for compensating for remaining channel distortion of the selected beam output.
