Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling uplink power in a non-terrestrial network (NTN). An NTN station transmits a reference signal at a first time having a defined transmission power and the reference signal is received by non-terrestrial user equipment. The user equipment evaluates the reference signal and determines a first downlink loss of the reference signal by calculating a difference between a measured power level of the received reference signal and the defined transmission power. The NTN station transmits a communication signal at a second time and is received by the user equipment, which estimates a second downlink loss of the communication signal based on the first downlink loss and a power level of the communication signal. A first uplink loss is estimated based on the second downlink loss, and the user equipment adjusts a transmission power of its transmitter based on the first uplink loss.

Abstract: A method for radio measuring applications, wherein a first radio node functions as an initiator and a second radio node as a transponder, each radio node has its own timer and a data interface, in a first step, the initiator transmits a first carrier frequency as an initial signal and the initial signal is received by the transponder during a first reception period, in a second step, a response signal with a second carrier frequency is transmitted by the transponder and the response signal is received by the initiator during a second reception period. The initial signal and the response signal are coherent at least during each sequence of steps, the carrier frequency of the initial signal is changed within one predetermined frequency domain with each repetition.
Abstract: A monitoring/calibrating system is provided based on the amplitude and/or phase of electric and/or magnetic fields measurements. In transmitter mode of AUT, one or more probe sets are placed very close to the AUT around the radiation aperture of AUT to prevent probes effects on the AUT performance. For each amplitude/phase state of AUT controller, the near field data are measured and compared with a previously stored dataset. A successive method can reduce the error by changing the amplitude/phase of AUT controller. Moreover, a machine learning method can be used to classify the errors in near field data, errors in amplitude/phase of AUT controller, and automatically tuning the AUT controller. In receiver mode of AUT, the system is the same but the probe sets are working as transmitters to make a known near field around the AUT.
