Abstract: A multi-range communication system is provided that can be expanded to support communications using both RF signals and millimeter wave signals without having to install entirely new systems to support communication of the signals. The communication system can use one or more shared optical fibers to simultaneously communicate both RF signals and millimeter wave signals in different ranges between network devices and mobile devices. The communication system permits the co-location of components for the communication system for the different ranges, which can result in substantially similar coverage areas for each of the ranges supported by the communication system. In addition, the corresponding equipment used for communicating signals in each of the ranges can be powered from a common DC power source. The supplied power can be configured for each piece of equipment, and corresponding range, such that the substantially similar coverage areas are obtained.

Abstract: A system has a plurality of non-linear circuit stages and an intervening linear circuit stage. An input signal is provided to a first non-linear circuit stage, and from the first non-linear circuit stage, to the linear circuit stage. The first non-linear circuit stage applies a second-order distortion to the input signal and provides the resulting signal to the linear circuit stage. The resulting signal that is output from the linear circuit stage is inverted with respect to the input signal and suitably linearly processed (attenuated or amplified). This signal is then provided to a second non-linear circuit that applies a second-order distortion and outputs a signal that has an overall reduction in second-order distortion.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for registering devices with a distributed antenna system (DAS) and managing access to one or more mobile networks provided through the DAS. The DAS may include a centralized hub that may interface with various base stations to provide one or more mobile networks in a DAS deployment. In some embodiments, the centralized hub may communicate with one or more remote units that convert signals received from the centralized hub to be communicated using one of the distributed antennas. When a device attempts to connect to the mobile network, an access manager in the DAS can determine whether the device can access the mobile network. Access can be determined based on device registration with the DAS. In various embodiments, different service levels may be made available to different users, devices, types of traffic, etc. by the DAS.

Abstract: A balanced amplifier can utilize a common mode choke to suppress even harmonics in the signals of the balanced amplifier. The common choke can be coupled between cascaded balanced amplifier pairs to receive the differential output signals from one of the balanced amplifier pairs and to provide conditioned signals to the other of the balanced amplifier pairs. The common mode choke can improve the amplitude and phase balance between the differential output signals by providing increased impedance to the passage of common mode signals such as even harmonics.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide techniques for managing interference across multiple transceivers in an access point in a network environment. A wireless networking system can include various access points. These access points may each include multiple transceivers. However, with multiple transceivers in close proximity, signals transmitted by one transceiver may interfere with another transceiver through crosstalk, adjacent channel interference, or other form of interference. Each access point may include an interference manager which can use an interference model to modify a signal transmitted by one transceiver to be used to cancel corresponding interference caused in a second transceiver. Interference can be modeled prior to deployment and/or at deployment using a series of test signals transmitted by one transceiver while the corresponding interference is monitored on a second transceiver.
