    摘要: A method of signal processing, or corresponding apparatus, includes providing multiple analog receive signals at respective antennas and selecting one antenna at a time in an iterative manner, to cycle through the antennas and provide a multiplexed analog signal. The multiplexed analog signal is filtered at a filter to pass a predetermined frequency band. The multiplexed analog signal is sampled at a single analog to digital converter to generate a multiplexed digital signal. The multiplexed digital signal is demultiplexed to generate multiple digital signals for digital processing. Sharing a receiver and ADC among multiple antennas results in reduced cost and power. Such cost and power reductions in turn enable larger antenna arrays than are available with prior art techniques, thereby promoting increased throughput and coverage.

    摘要: A control unit 19 switches four antennas 111 to 114 at predetermined time intervals, receives signals from an LTE base station 2 using four receiving antennas 111 to 114, and receives signals from a GSM base station 3 using the four antennas 111 to 114. The control unit 19 determines the reception level in a cell 2c of the LTE base station 2 on the basis of signal strengths detected by a received signal detector 14p when signals are received from the LTE base station 2 using the four antennas 111 to 114. In addition, the control unit 19 determines the reception level in a cell 3c of the GSM base station 3 on the basis of four signal strengths detected by the received signal detector 14p when signals are received from the GSM base station 3 using the four antennas 111 to 114.

During defined 5 intervals of time (SACCH1-SACCH4), only one RF path is used to transmit from one of said transceivers to the other of said transceivers, and the receiving transceiver measures the strength of the signal received during at least a number of said intervals, thus making it possible to compare signal strength and thereby path loss between different RF paths, which in turn 10 makes it possible to find imperfections in one or more of said RF paths.

    摘要: A system and method for receiving communication signals is provided. According to the method, a plurality of communication signals is received, each communication signal comprising one or more source signals. The plurality of communication signals are multiplexed into a multiplexed signal, which is then converted into a baseband signal. The baseband signal is sampled to produce a digital multiplexed signal comprising a plurality of samples. The samples are interpolated to generate respective interpolated digital signals, which are then subject to a blind signal separation operation to separate each of the source signals.
