SCHALTUNGSANORDNUNG ZUR DURCHFÜHRUNG DER RÄUMLICHEN DIVERSITÄTSOPERATIONEN MIT EINEM EMPFÄNGER FÜR DIGITALE SIGNALE

A circuit arrangement for carrying out spatial diversity operations with a digital signal receiver, in particular a mobile DVB receiver for receiving terrestrially and digitally transmitted television transmissions while the receiver is moving, is designed to receive signals to the DVB-T Standard (Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial). The aim of the invention is to reduce the outlay in terms of costs and material. To this end, an integrated circuit for the OFDM receiver is modified such that it can be used as an individual item in conventional, stationary DVB receivers, and in a number of items in mobile DVB receivers with spatial diversity operation. Each RF input circuit is connected to a separate complex integrated circuit (OFDM-IC) which has a diversity processor (11) in the signal path between a point at which the information in the parallel subbands is converted into a serial digital transport stream, and the deinterleaver (9), which diversity processor (11) contains a databus (D-bus) for the external connections of the integrated circuit (OFDM-IC).
