Data unit detection including antenna diversity
First Claim
1. A method of adjusting a receiving device in response to sensing symbols comprising:
- (a) adjusting an automatic gain control in response receiving a first symbol of a data unit from a first antenna;
(b) after adjusting said automatic gain control receiving at least a second and a third symbol of said data unit and in response thereto (1) calculating a first energy of at least one of said second and third symbol, (2) calculating a first frequency offset of at least one of said second and third symbol, and (3) calculating a first temporal offset of at least one of said second and third symbol;
(c) adjusting said automatic gain control in response receiving a fourth symbol of said data unit from a second antenna;
(d) after adjusting said automatic gain control receiving at least a fifth and a sixth symbol of said data unit and in response thereto (1) calculating a second energy of at least one of said fifth and sixth symbol, (2) calculating a second frequency offset of at least one of said fifth and sixth symbol, and (3) calculating a second temporal offset of at least one of said fifth and sixth symbol; and
(e) selecting at least one of said first and second antenna based upon a comparison between said first and second energy.

Abstract
A system adjusts a receiving device in response to sensing symbols. An automatic gain control is adjusted in response receiving a first symbol of a data unit from a first antenna. After adjusting the automatic gain control at least a second and a third symbol of the data unit are received, and in response thereto (1) a first energy of at least one of the second and third symbols is calculated, (2) a first frequency offset of at least one of the second and third symbols is calculated, and (3) a first temporal offset of at least one of the second and third symbols is calculated. The automatic gain control in response receiving a fourth symbol of the data unit from a second antenna is received. After adjusting the automatic gain control at least a fifth and a sixth symbol of the data unit is calculated, and in response thereto (1) a second energy of at least one of the fifth and sixth symbols is calculated, (2) a second frequency offset of at least one of the fifth and sixth symbols is calculated, and (3) a second temporal offset of at least one of the fifth and sixth symbols is calculated. At least one of the first and second antenna is selected based upon a comparison between the first and second energy. In this manner, antenna diversity selection may be performed within a limited duration of available symbols.
