ABSTRACT:
Combining signals includes receiving a plurality of groups of signals at a plurality of antennas at a mobile device, where each group of signals includes a plurality of signals, and each signal includes a time slot. The following is repeated for each group of signals of the plurality of groups of signals. An adjustment associated with a time slot of each signal is set. Each signal of the group of signals is adjusted at the time slot in accordance with the adjustment associated with the time slot. A signal quality associated with each time slot of each signal of the group of signals is established, and an optimal adjustment in accordance with the signal qualities is determined. The signals are adjusted in accordance with the optimal adjustment.
