Abstract
Methods, apparatuses and computer readable media are described that configure wireless circuitry in a wireless communication device. The wireless communication device establishes a connection to a wireless network using wireless circuitry that includes a first radio frequency receive signal chain and a second radio frequency receive signal chain. The wireless communication device monitors uplink and downlink traffic activity communicated between the wireless communication device and the wireless network and measures downlink radio frequency receive signal conditions at the wireless communication device. The wireless communication device reconfigures the wireless circuitry to enable receive diversity or to disable receive diversity at the wireless communication device based on the monitored traffic activity and the measured downlink radio frequency receive signal conditions.
