Abstract
A wireless diversity receiver includes, in part, N signal processing paths, a bin-wise combiner, and an inverse transformation module. Each signal processing path includes, in part, a mixer adapted to downconvert a frequency of an RF signal received by that path, an analog-to-digital converter adapted to convert the downconverted signal from an analog signal to a digital signal, and a transformation block adapted to transform the digital signal represented in time domain to an associated frequency domain signal having M subband signals. The bin-wise combiner is configured to combine the corresponding subband signals of the N paths. The inverse transformation block is configured to transform the output of the bin-wise combiner to an associated time-domain signal.
