In our application targeted here, four on-glass antenna elements are set in an automobile to improve the reception quality of mobile ISDB-T receiver. With regard to the directional characteristics of each antenna, we propose and implement a joint Pre-FFT adaptive array antenna and Post-FFT space diversity combining (AAA-SDC) scheme for mobile ISDB-T receiver. By applying a joint hardware and software approach, a flexible platform is realized in which several system configuration schemes can be supported; the receiver can be reconfigured on the fly. Simulation results show that the AAA-SDC scheme drastically improves the performance of mobile ISDB-T receiver, especially in the region of large Doppler shift. The experimental results from a field test also confirm that the proposed AAA-SDC scheme successfully achieves an outstanding reception rate up to 100% while moving at the speed of 80km/h.
