Abstract
A receiver includes a plurality of antennas; a switching device coupled to the antennas for selecting one of the antennas to receive transmitted signals; a demodulator coupled to the switching device for demodulating the transmitted signals to generate demodulated signals; and a control circuit coupled to the demodulator and the switching device, for counting a specific type of packets within the demodulated signals so as to accordingly control the switching device.
