Maximal-ratio combining architectures and performance with channel estimation based on a training sequence.

Maximal-ratio combining architectures and performance with channel estimation based on a training sequence.

Maximum-ratio combining (MRC) is a simple and effective combining scheme for adaptive antenna arrays to combat noise, fading, and to a certain degree, cochannel interference. However, it requires estimation of the spatial signature (i.e., the channel gain and phase at each antenna element) of the de...
