Abstract
A system including a diversity module and an antenna selection module. The diversity module is configured to measure (i) a first signal-to-noise ratio and a first error rate associated with a first antenna, and (ii) a second signal-to-noise ratio and a second error rate associated with a second antenna. The antenna selection module is configured to select the first antenna or the second antenna by comparing (i) the first signal-to-noise ratio to the second signal-to-noise ratio, and (ii) the first error rate to the second error rate.
