ABSTRACT:
A method and device are set forth for providing improved diversity reception to a receiver system in a communication system, the receiver system having at least one receiver on each of at least a first and a second receiver branch. The method and device provide, upon receipt of signals on the receiver branches, for utilizing received signal strength voltages to determine control voltage values, utilizing the control voltage values to amplify the designated signal (the designated signal being, for example, a signal having a received signal strength (RSSI) greater than a predetermined threshold) to obtain an amplified designated signal, and generating a resultant signal in view of the at least first amplified designated signal. The control voltage values are utilized to obtain at least one weighted difference. The at least one weighted difference is utilized to obtain an adjusted amplification of the at least one designated signal in accordance with a linear approximation. Amplified designated signals are combined to obtain the resultant signal.
