Abstract:
Apparatus for providing antenna diversity for a radio transmitter/receiver (TR) comprising measuring means for measuring relative received signal strengths in a plurality of antennas in a selectable frequency range, means for selecting the selectable frequency range according to a transmission frequency of the TR, and connecting means for connecting the antenna having the greatest received signal strength to the TR. The apparatus may be combined with a plurality of antennas to form a diversity antenna system, for example for use with a personal radio. The antennas may then be disposed spaced apart on the user's body e.g. by being incorporated into a garment.
