Abstract
A cellular base station (10) in a digital cellular system employs transmitting circuitry in which voice signals (15) are processed at a low frequency level (12) into two separate paths. A first of the low frequency signals is variably delayed (20), and the first and the other low frequency signals are upconverted to radio frequency level (16,22) for transmission over independent time-spaced transmission paths (26,28) to cellular receivers. A receiver downconverts and demodulates the radio frequency diversity signals, and then combines the demodulated diversity signals to generate an equalized combination diversity signal for receiver output processing.
