Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO)/Maximum Ratio Combining (MRC)

MIMO is an acronym for multiple input multiple output. This technology can multiply the throughput capacity by delivering multiple data streams over multiple antennas.

MRC is an acronym for maximum ration combining, This technology enables diversity of the reception signal, done by combining the signal received in each antenna with the proper gain factor according to its quality.
