Abstract
Embodiments of systems and methods for combining downlink signals representative of a communication signal are provided herein. An example method comprises receiving the downlink signals from antenna feeds. In a first processing block(s) in a processor(s), performing a first blind detection operation on first packets of a first signal, and performing a first doppler compensation operation on the first packets. In a second processing block(s) in the processor(s) in parallel with the first processing block(s), performing a second blind detection operation on second packets of a second signal, and performing a second doppler compensation operation on the second packets. The method also comprises combining the first signal and the second signal based on (i) aligning the first data packets with the second data packets and (ii) performing a weighted combiner operation that applies scaling to the first and second packets based on corresponding signal quality.
