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.
