Abstract
Calibrating signal processing paths for a plurality of transmission devices by obtaining calibration data for at least one of the signal processing paths for each of the transmission devices and determining a plurality of calibration weights from the calibration data for each of the transmission devices. A calibration variance is calculated between the plurality of calibration weights and it is determined if the calibration variance is below a calibration variance threshold. Additionally, a phase variation and a magnitude variation are calculated from the calibration data for each of the transmission devices and it is determined for each of the transmission devices if the phase variation is below a phase variation threshold and if the magnitude variation is below a magnitude variation threshold. Further, if the calibration variance is below the calibration variance threshold, and the phase variation is below the phase variation threshold and the magnitude variation is below the magnitude variation threshold for each of the transmission devices, then the plurality of calibration weights are applied to the at least one of the signal processing paths of each of the transmission devices.
