Precondition and initiation
The Air Time Slot Resources (ATSR) must be congured for diversity.
The diversity initiates when the ATSR is taken into trafc.

Figure 98 Diversity
One way to improve your performance on received signal is by using
diversity. This can be achieved by using two reception channels that are
independently inuenced by fading. Both of the two insignals from the
antennas are combined in the receiver. The receiver uses the weaker
signal together with the stronger signal, with a factor proportional to
SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) on each antenna.
