Abstract
Techniques for controlling diversity beamforming antenna array is disclosed. One aspect of the techniques is to utilize low-power and low area circuits to achieve combining gains, mitigate the effects of multipath fading, provide spatial suppression and diversity gains to a single input receiver. The device is radiofrequency transparent yet provides antenna gain by selective three G and four G code acquisition and tracking of a desired downlink channel.
