Abstract: A printed-circuit board arrangement electrically connects the at least one transmitter and/or receiver unit with at least one antenna element, whereas the at least one transmitter and/or receiver unit and the at least one antenna element are at least partially integrated into the printed-circuit board arrangement.

Abstract: A test coupler for supplying a device under test with test signals contains a first coaxial connector, a waveguide port, and a first strip conductor. Test signals of a lower frequency range are supplied to the first coaxial connector. Test signals of an upper frequency range are supplied to the waveguide port. The test coupler guides the test signals on the first strip conductor to the device under test.

Abstract: A coupler comprises a first line and a second line in each case with two connectors. The lines run in spatial proximity and are coupled. A first connector of the first line and a first connector of the second line are disposed in spatial proximity. A second connector of the first line and a second connector of the second line are disposed in spatial proximity. A signal does not couple or couples only with a high attenuation from the first connector of the first line to the first connector of the second line. The signal is split, in particular, at the design frequency, into largely identical parts to the second connector of the first line and the second connector of the second line. The first line and the second line in this context are strip conductors.

Abstract: A person-identification system which includes a scanner unit, which scans a person to be identified by an electromagnetic radiation. The electromagnetic radiation provides a wavelength in the millimeter range and/or centimeter range. The scanner unit prepares a three-dimensional image of body geometries of the person to be identified as test data in a storage unit. The person-identification system further provides a processing unit which processes the test data and extracts biometric features necessary for the identification and compares these with biometric features which are stored in at least one further storage unit.

Abstract: A method for determining the place of origin of a passive intermodulation product excites a distributed device under test with two first excitation signals (x1(t),x2(t), each with a single spectral line, of which the frequencies (f1,f2) provide a frequency spacing relative to one another. Following this, the phase (?IM3Meas) of a first passive intermodulation product generated at the place of origin in the distributed device under test from the first excitation signals ((x1(t), x2(t)) by nonlinear distortion is measured, and the delay time of the first passive intermodulation product from the place of origin to the measuring device is calculated from the measured phase (x1(t),x2(t)) and the frequency (2·f1?f2) of the first passive intermodulation product. Finally, the place of origin of the passive intermodulation product is determined from the delay time and the topology of the distributed device under test.

Abstract: In a directional coupler with two coupled lines arranged in a flat chamber of an enclosed metal housing within the coupling region side-by-side in the longitudinal direction and at a spacing distance from one another, of which the ends are connected to connecting ports attached at the sides of the metal housing, these coupled lines include flat, sheet-metal strip conductors, which are arranged within the coupling region with their broad sides facing towards one another side-by-side at a spacing distance and held by several support elements made of insulating material in a cantilever manner at a spacing distance from the opposing internal walls of the flat metal-housing chamber within the latter.
