    This document discusses the use of hybrid combiner stacks to combine multiple radio frequency (RF) inputs from transmission/reception (TRX) units in base stations. It notes that each level in a stacked hybrid combiner introduces a 3dB loss, so the combined loss increases with the number of inputs. While hybrid combiner stacks are cost-effective for cells with few TRXs, the increasing loss makes them inadequate when many signals need combining.

    Hybrid Combiner Stacks


    To combine more than two inputs, several combiners must be stacked Each level introduces a 3 dB loss - gives inadequate output when many

    Combined loss is 6 dB for each TRX

    Hybrid combiners are cost effective for cells with few TRXs They have a wide bandwidth - used in frequency hopping
