Abstract
A technique for achieving receive diversity without multiple antennas per cell is disclosed. An illustrative embodiment of the present invention comprises: a first antenna for receiving a first information-bearing signal at a first radio frequency; a first downconverter for downconverting the first information-bearing signal to a first intermediate frequency; a first transmitter for transmitting the first information-bearing signal at the first intermediate frequency over a first wireline; means for receiving the first information-bearing signal at the first intermediate frequency from the first wireline and for demodulating the first information-bearing signal.
