Abstract: A solid-state amplifier architecture is disclosed. In some embodiments, the disclosed architecture may include first and second channel chipsets configured to amplify either the entire instantaneous frequency band of a radio frequency (RF) input signal or, respectively, sub-bands thereof, which may be divided proportionally between the two chipsets. In some cases, the chipsets may be configured to amplify frequencies in excess of the entire K-band and Ka-band frequencies simultaneously. In some cases, the architecture may be configured to address a signal received, for instance, from an electronic warfare (EW) system to a log amplifier stage configured to output a signal to the EW system, in response to which the EW system may generate a RF signal for amplification by the architecture for transmission. To facilitate heat dissipation, the architecture may be coupled, in part or in whole, with a thermally conductive carrier, optionally with an intervening diamond heat spreader layer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and corresponding system for controlling how a user equipment device (UE) served by a base station of a first network is concurrently served by a second network, where the first network is interconnected with the second network. In an example method, if the UE determines that the UE provides connectivity between at least one other device and the base station, the UE then causes itself to be served by the second network in a first mode in which the UE is registered with the second network via the first network. Whereas, if the UE determines that the UE does not provide such connectivity, the UE then instead causes itself to be served by the second network in a second mode in which the UE is registered with the second network directly via the second network rather than via the first network.
