The invention relates to a method for improving connection quality in a cellular radio system, and a receiver in a cellular radio system which comprises at least one base station (BS) in each cell and subscriber units (MS) which communicate with the base stations employing time division multiple access, the receiver comprising means (504, 508, 514) for receiving and measuring a signal from a transmitter. To allow antenna diversity to be implemented in low-cost subscriber and base stations units, the receiver according to the invention comprises at least two antenna means (500, 502) for receiving signals from the transmitter, means (508) for measuring, at the beginning of each data burst, the quality of the signal received at the receiver with each antenna over a given time period, switching means (516) for connecting the desired antenna to the receiving and measuring means (508), means (514) for comparing the measurement results, and means (514) for instructing the switching means (516) to select the antenna giving the best quality for receiving the remainder of the data burst. |
