Patent number: 9112587Abstract: In certain embodiments, an apparatus includes circuitry coupled to a switch between a first and second antenna of a device. The circuitry generates a first control signal for the switch to couple a transceiver of the device to the first antenna for transmission of a first data frame. The circuitry determines whether the transceiver has received, within a pre-determined time interval after transmission of the first data frame, a second data frame containing an acknowledgement message confirming successful receipt of the first data frame by another device. The circuitry generates, if the transceiver has not received the second data frame within the pre-determined time interval, a second control signal for the switch to couple the transceiver to the second antenna for re-transmission of the first data frame. An output line of the apparatus couples the circuitry to the switch and communicates the first or second control signal to the switch.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2013Date of Patent: August 18, 2015Assignee: Atmel CorporationInventors: Tilo Ferchland, Sascha Beyer, Frank Poegel, Thomas Hanusch

Patent number: 9054718Abstract: In one embodiment, a transceiver may set a first receive frequency of a first channel of the transceiver and a second receive frequency of a second channel of the transceiver. The transceiver may receive, during a first time interval, a first radio frequency (RF) signal on the first channel. The transceiver may determine that a first measured value indicative of a first detectable received RF signal on the first channel exceeds a first predetermined threshold, and in response, receive a first data frame on the first channel. The transceiver may receive, during a second time interval, a second RF signal on the second channel. The transceiver determine that a second measured value indicative of a second detectable received RF signal on the second channel exceeds the first predetermined threshold, and in response, receive a second data frame on the second channel.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2011Date of Patent: June 9, 2015Assignee: Atmel CorporationInventors: Tilo Ferchland, Sascha Beyer, Dietmar Eggert, Udo Walter
