Abstract
The disclosed embodiments seek to improve communication rates and lessen transmission errors between nodes in a communication network. The disclosed embodiments seek to improve reception bandwidth using one or more of (1) a MAC wrapper configured to integrate incoming data across sector arrays for use by the existing chipsets, and/or (2) a new interface modification to the chip design facilitating integrated log likelihood ratio processing from across multiple sector arrays. Sector coverage may be deliberately overlapped using the dynamic diversity achieved by the embodiments to compensate for environmental factors.
