Abstract
An in-vivo communication system comprises an in-vivo transmitting device, multiple receiving devices, a signal selector, and a signal processing device. The signal selector being able to select two or more signals from multiple received signals at the multiple receiving devices, and the signal processing device being able to combine the selected two or more signals to reproduce a transmitted signal. A method of reproducing the transmitted signal from two or more signals selected from multiple received signals.
