Abstract: A method for receiving, at a communications station which has a plurality of antennas, messages from a plurality of users in wireless communication with the communications station, comprising the steps of: (i) receiving, from the users, using the plurality of antennas, time-slotted information chunks formed from the messages of the users, wherein the information chunks are free of any encoded user-identifiers representative of the users transmitting the messages; (ii) after receiving all of the information chunks, estimating vectors representative of respective communication channels between the antennas and the users based on the received information chunks; (iii) grouping the information chunks based on the estimated vectors to form clusters of the information chunks respectively associated with the users; and (iv) recovering the messages of the users from the clusters of the information chunks.

Abstract: An electronic amplifier for amplifying an input signal has a branching node, a supply branch, a balance branch, an auxiliary branch and a load branch. All of the branches are connected in parallel to each other relative to the branching node and a reference potential. The supply branch supplies a DC voltage to the branching node. The balance branch absorbs and/or storing electric energy. A current supply device supplies a DC current. The control switch, the current valve and the current source are in different branches. The control switch, in a pass current state, establishes a current flow from the supply branch into either the auxiliary branch or the balance branch. In the block current state, current flows from the current supply device to the balancing device. The supply, balance and auxiliary branches provide an amplified signal to the load, controlled only by the input signal at the control switch.
