  • Patent number: 9362906
    Abstract: A sensor arrangement for detection of proximity and/or touching including least one sensor supporting surface having a first flat face and a second flat face, a proximity and/or touching sensor which is connected to the first flat face and/or to the second flat face of the sensor supporting surface, a decoration supporting medium with a first support flat face and a second support flat face, a decoration layer which is connected to the first support flat face and/or to the second support flat face of the decoration supporting medium, and/or is an integral component of the decoration supporting medium. In this case, the sensor supporting surface and the decoration supporting medium are connected to one another such that a connection along their mutually facing flat face and support flat face is not formed, or is partially formed.

  • Patent number: 9329217
    Abstract: A sensor assembly and method for producing a sensor assembly for detecting an approaching and/or contacting object. The sensor assembly includes at least one sensor support surface having a first flat side and a second flat side, a proximity and/or contact sensor, which is connected to the first flat side and/or to the second flat side of the sensor support surface, a decoration support medium having a first support flat side and a second support flat side, and a decoration layer, which is connected to the first support flat side and/or to the second support flat side of the decoration support medium and/or is an integral part of the decoration support medium. The decoration support medium includes a glass or plastic film or panel which is back-molded on the first support flat side thereof and/or on the second support flat side, directly or indirectly, using an injection molding material.

  • Patent number: 7200136
    Abstract: A method for mapping format identification bits onto a frame which is to be transmitted using a compressed mode, in which more TFCI points are available than TFCI bits wherein in order to fill the excess TFCI points with bits as well and at the same time to achieve as high a performance capability as possible, it is proposed that the TFCI bits be repeated in a skillful manner for the uplink and/or downlink.

  • Patent number: 7197027
    Abstract: A method for mapping bits which are not to be transmitted onto a frame which is to be transmitted using a compressed mode, in which more TFCI points are available than TFCI bits wherein in order to fill the excess TFCI points with bits as well and at the same time to achieve as high a performance capability as possible, it is proposed, in particular for the downlink, that DTX bits be used to fill the TFCI points which immediately follow the transmission gap that occurs in the compressed mode.

  • Patent number: 7180902
    Abstract: A method for mapping format identification bits onto a frame which is to be transmitted using a compressed mode, in which more TFCI points are available than TFCI bits wherein in order to fill the excess TFCI points with bits as well and at the same time to achieve as high a performance capability as possible, it is proposed that originally punctured TFCI bits and/or an unpunctured format identification code word be transmitted for the uplink and/or downlink.

  • Patent number: 7062288
    Abstract: A method is provided for controlling the transmission power in a radio system, including the steps of: transmitting a transmission signal to a receiver; evaluating the transmission signal to produce a power control command for controlling the transmission power of the transmitter; setting the transmission power of the transmitter based on an estimated value after an occurrence of a transmission gap in a transmission channel, the estimated value taking account of power control commands produced for the transmitter in the past; and determining the estimated value as a function of a parameter which indicates whether the respective power control command is intended to be taken into account in the determination of the estimated value, and setting the parameter to a value which results in the power control command being taken into account when determining the estimated value.

  • Patent number: 7039409
    Abstract: A method and system are provided for monitoring adjacent cells in a mobile radio telephone system, in which a mobile station located in a cell of a mobile radio telephone system receives, for purposes of monitoring adjacent cells, transmits signals coded with different cell-specific codes from base stations of adjacent cells and codes and evaluates these in accordance with the respective cell-specific codes, wherein at least the base station currently responsible for the mobile station transmits a signaling information item which informs the mobile station of the codes to be used in the monitoring of adjacent cells and/or of the codes not to be used in monitoring adjacent cells, and the mobile station, in monitoring adjacent cells, only decodes and evaluates the transmit signals of the adjacent cells coded with a code which can be used for the monitoring of adjacent cells in accordance with the signaling information.
