1. Significant instrumentation is needed to adjust the complex
weighting parameters of maximal-ratio combiner to their exact
values.
2. Additional improvement in :
1. output signal-to-noise ration gained by mrc over sc is not
large
2. Receiver performance is lost in inability to achieve the exact
setting of mrc
3. other details of the combiner may result in a minor improvement
in overall receiver performance.
