Abstract

A system adjusts a receiving device in response to sensing symbols. An automatic gain control is adjusted in response receiving a first symbol of a data unit from a first antenna. After adjusting the automatic gain control at least a second and a third symbol of the data unit are received, and in response thereto (1) a first energy of at least one of the second and third symbols is calculated, (2) a first frequency offset of at least one of the second and third symbols is calculated, and (3) a first temporal offset of at least one of the second and third symbols is calculated. The automatic gain control in response receiving a fourth symbol of the data unit from a second antenna is received. After adjusting the automatic gain control at least a fifth and a sixth symbol of the data unit is calculated, and in response thereto (1) a second energy of at least one of the fifth and sixth symbols is calculated, (2) a second frequency offset of at least one of the fifth and sixth symbols is calculated, and (3) a second temporal offset of at least one of the fifth and sixth symbols is calculated. At least one of the first and second antenna is selected based upon a comparison between the fi…
