    摘要: The present invention provides an apparatus and method of multiple antenna receiver combining of high data rate wideband packetized wireless communication signals, where the apparatus includes M receive antennas, receiving M high data rate wideband packetized wireless communication signals, where each of the signals includes N frequency bins. The apparatus, in an exemplary embodiment, includes (1) a joint timing recovery units that perform joint coarse signal timing estimation, joint frequency offset estimation, and joint fine timing estimation on each of the signals, (2) M Fast Fourier Transform units (FFTs) that each convert the digital data for each of the M signals into frequency domain information for each of the N received frequencies and that output Q pilots for each of the signals, where Q is a positive integer, and (3) a combiner that weights and combines the outputs of the M FFTs for each of the N received frequencies.

    摘要: A wireless local area network (WLAN) system can have multiple antennas to improve signal detection and decoding. A WLAN receiver in such a system includes multiple amplifiers that can appropriately size an incoming signal and an automatic gain control unit to process the received incoming signals. The amplifiers of a chain of the WLAN receiver, i.e. an antenna and associated receiver components, can be adjusted with computed gains. To optimize the wireless system detection and decoding, the automatic gain control unit can advantageously compute these gains for each amplifier in the WLAN receiver.
