Abstract
Wireless receiver systems and methods for user equipment are described that employ multiple receiver heads. The multiple heads can receive wireless communication signals over different receive paths from different transmission sources. The systems can scan and monitor signal quality from all receiver heads during a scheduled gap in a communication link without interfering with an ongoing communication session.
Claims12
A method of monitoring wireless signals comprising:
- during a scheduled gap in a wireless communication link, simultaneously evaluating a quality of two signals from a first antenna sub-array that receives signals having at least two different polarizations and from a second antenna sub-array that receives signals having at least two different polarizations with a receiver system having four receive paths;
- and
- evaluating the quality of additional signals during the scheduled gap from additional antenna sub-arrays in the receiver system.
A controller for a receiver system configured to:
- simultaneously evaluate, during a scheduled gap in a wireless communication link, a quality of two signals from a first antenna sub-array that receives signals having at least two different polarizations and from a second antenna sub-array that receives signals having at least two different polarizations with a receiver system having four receive paths;
- and
- evaluate the quality of additional signals during the scheduled gap from additional antenna sub-arrays in the receiver system.
