| Summary: | This paper reports two independent preliminary
works in implementing a receive-diversity technique. These
works are re-observation of a previously constructed RFcombiner
and preliminary observation of DVB-T2 receive-signal.
The RF-combiner was designed to operate below 200 MHz, therefore
should be future modified to support UHF band. Using
commercial (consumer) DVB-T2 receiver, received signal can be
monitored by two quantities: signal-intensity and signal-quality.
Value which is required as high as possible is the signal-quality,
not the signal-intensity. This preliminary observation gives a
guidance that one of efforts to improve the signal quality is by
minimizing the multipath effect. Space-diversity, of course, is
expected to be able to do that.
Keywords—multipath, receive-diversity, OFDM, DVB, RFcombiner.
