Abstract:
A first-transceiver for use in an antenna diversity scheme. The first-transceiver comprises a first-time/clock-generation-unit; a first-receiver; and a first-transmitter. The first-receiver is configured to receive a wireless second-alignment-signal from a second-transceiver with a second-time/clock-generation-unit. The wireless second-alignment-signal is representative of a state of the second-time/clock-generation-unit. The first-transceiver is configured to set the first-time/clock-generation-unit, based on the wireless second-alignment-signal, to reduce an alignment-error between the first-time/clock-generation-unit and the second-time/clock-generation-unit. The first-transmitter is configured to transmit a wireless first-transmission-signal, in accordance with the first-time/clock-generation-unit, as part of the antenna diversity scheme. The first-transmission-signal corresponds to a second-transmission-signal that is transmitted by the second-transceiver. The antenna diversity scheme comprises aligned transmission of both the first-transmission-signal and the second-transmission-signal.
