  • Patent number: 9608676
    Abstract: Various digital pre-distortion systems for use in transmitters are disclosed. The digital pre-distortion system comprises an observing path, which performs either undersampling or radio frequency sampling of the output of a power amplifier. Undersampling may be performed at a rate, which causes aliasing to occur in the undersampled frequency domain. Both undersampling and radio frequency sampling reduces the complexity of the digital pre-distortion system by removing any down mixing modules or anti-aliasing modules, while maintaining reasonable performance of the digital pre-distortion systems.

  • Patent number: 9550476
    Abstract: An overload protection in a drive unit for a steady or jack for a caravan comprises an electro-mechanical control system. A spindle is driven by a motor through a gearbox, wherein the motor is controlled through a power supply. A control device in the system comprises a movable part slidably seated on an output shaft of the gearbox, where the movable part is connected with the spindle. Movement between the shaft and the sliding part is counteracted by springs. The slidable part is provided with actuating points that may contact switches by axial movements. When a nut on the spindle reaches an end position, a reactive force in the spindle will cause the part to move against the force of springs, eventually actuating a switch and thereby causing interruption of the circuit, thereby protecting motor and engagement between nut and spindle from electric and mechanical overload.
