3.14.6 Space Diversity
This feature is not yet available as of the publishing date of this
manual.
Space Diversity (SD) is a similar application for radios where there is a “back-up” path for the radio
in case of radio failure or path outage problems. This type of application is typically configured as
two separate radios at the same site connected to two separate antennas. The separate antennas
yield a slightly different path and therefore may provide better performance in cases of path outage
due to weather or interference. There is an availability improvement due to multipath fading in a SD
configuration as compared to a non-protected system configuration. A representative SD
configuration is shown in Figure 3-30.
