Abstract
A low cost switched diversity receiving system has been developed for use in UHF-FM mobile radio. The input of a single receiver is switched back and forth between two antennas upon command from a signal level sensing logic circuit. The system has been measured on simulated Rayleigh fading channels and has been found to give a significant improvement to both voice and data signals.
