Abstract

Methods and apparatus for implementing a wireless communication transceiver having receive path performance diversity. The transceiver implements a plurality of signal paths that can be configured as diversity receive paths. Each of the plurality of signal paths includes a distinct RF filter. Each RF filter can be configured to provide a distinct jammer rejection profile. Each receive path also includes a jammer detector, that can be a multiple level jammer detector. Each jammer detector operates to control a level of processing gain applied to the signals in its receive path. The multiple gain scaled receive signals can be combined in a coherent combiner before being routed for further processing.
