The invention provides a cell phone which shows good receiving sensitivity even in a state where synchronization with a base station is not provided, such as power-on and detection of a dead space. The invention alternately switches between a plurality of antennas a predetermined number of times per fixed time predetermined in accordance with the number of perch channels in a state where synchronization with a base station is not provided, and sets an antenna whose mean value of the receiving level of each of these antennas is the highest as an antenna to be used subsequently, that is, an antenna to open a control channel.

A DMA (Direct Memory Access) mechanism is provided that may be of improved performance in particular in connection with high-speed packet buses. A transmit DMA engine for outputting read requests for a memory interface and receiving requested data from the memory interface, comprises a data transfer initiating unit for outputting first address data identifying a first memory range. Further, a boundary alignment unit is provided for generating second address data using the first address data, where the second address data identifies a second memory range that differs from the first memory range in at least one boundary. Further a corresponding boundary alignment may be done in a receive DMA engine. The DMA mechanism may be performed in a USB-2 host controller that has HyperTransport capabilities.

Disclosed here is a wireless LAN system employed for quick and accurate auto gain controlling with no work load to be applied to its baseband processing block. When the wireless LAN system gets ready to receive a signal, the gain control circuit switches between the receiving antennas alternately. The gain control circuit, when receiving a signal over a predetermined receiving sensitivity, sets gain setting value time divisional data according to the level of the received signal measured by the first measurement circuit to roughly control the gain to be set in the LNA and the gain to be set in the two programmable gain amplifiers provided in the front steps of the LPF/PGA circuits. The gain control circuit then cancels the DC offset while the second measurement circuit measures the signal level. The gain control circuit then sets the gain setting value time divisional data according to the measured signal level, then sets a minute gain in the programmable gain amplifiers provided in the front steps of the LPF/PGA circuits respectively, thereby completing the auto gain controlling.

A method (300) for receiving radio signal comprises the steps of: receiving (301, 303) first and a second received signal components using first and second antennas having different properties; processing (305) a received signal component to produce a sampled signal component; producing (307) at least one combined signal, which is a linear combination of at least two sampled signal components; and selecting (306) at least one set of complex values for coefficients of the linear combination so that a quality of a combined signal is at least equal to the quality of that sampled signal components having the best quality. Furthermore, the antennas are alternately connected (302, 304) via a switching element to radio frequency means so that the received signal components are interleaving and so that first and second parts of a certain piece of transmitted information are received with the first and second antennas, respectively. A corresponding receiver device is also presented.

This antenna array for base station for radiocommunication with mobiles comprises N first sensors, N being an integer greater than 2, arranged in such a way that the array exhibits substantially no ambiguity; an (N+1).sup.th sensor placed or contrived in such a way as to receive signals which are decorrelated from the previous ones; and a module for processing the signals received, making it possible to locate, in an explicit or implicit manner, a transmitting mobile from the signals received by the N sensors alone, and to combine these signals and the signals received by the (N+1).sup.th sensor so as to improve reception by effecting spatial or spatio-temporal diversity.

The invention relates to the radio-electrical transmission of accurate timing-mark signals. A space-diversity electrical connection is formed between a station having one single antenna and a station having two antennae and one of the stations is equipped with a receiver device which combines into one composite timing-mark signal the different repetitive timing-marks decoded and rectified from high-frequency signals which have traversed several spatial propagation paths. A common automatic gain control circuit weights the decoded and rectified timing marks according to a weighting which diminishes with the level of high frequency reception. Preferably the rectification of the timing marks is carried out non-linearly.

An access point (1) for use in a point to multipoint wireless network comprises a sector antenna (8) and an antenna array of antenna elements (7), the antenna elements not including the sector antenna, and the antenna elements being arranged to receive signals from the same sector as the sector antenna. A first beamformer (10) is configurable to form a first beam (11) from signals received at the antenna array and a selector switch (5) is switchable to at least a first state in which signals received at the sector antenna (8) are connected to a first receiver (2), and a second state in which signals received from the first beamformer (10) are connected to the first receiver (2). A scheduler is configured to set the selector switch (5) to the first state for at least a first receive timeslot and to the second state for at least a second receive timeslot.
