RAKE or G-RAKE receiver structure for downlink transmit diversity signals

摘要

Methods and apparatus are disclosed for receiving a diversity transmitted signal using a Rake or G-Rake receiver in a radio system. Signals are diversity transmitted in a first and second symbol period by two or more antennas. One or more receive antennas receive the diverse transmit signals. Weights are generated to account for the correlation between the channels over which the diverse transmit signals are transmitted in the first and second symbol period and are used to weight the received signals. The weighted signals are then fed to a mutual receiver.
