Typically, the signal from the antenna with the least noise (best SNR) is chosen, and the other antenna is ignored. scheme, it effectively prevents channel fading and radio fluctuations. Real time channel tracking supports robust rate selection and MAC TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) A technology that transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path. Each lower-speed signal is time sliced into one high-speed transmission. scheduling to guarantee service of concurrent and different multiple HD streams. Packet loss is minimized to levels which allow hours of HD watching without a single packet drop (better than 10E(-8) packet error rate).
