  • Patent number: 6674728
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for utilizing the available bandwidth in a wireless communication system that comprises a first (ANB) and a second (C/D) communication device intended to transmit information to each other, where each device (A/B; C/D) simultaneously can transmit on a first frequency and receive on a second frequency. Based on the need of the respective devices to transmit information within a particular interval of time, the said interval of time is divided up into a number of sub-intervals, the first device simultaneously transmitting on both the first and the second frequencies within a number of the said sub-intervals, and the second device simultaneously receiving on both the first and the second frequencies during these sub-intervals. The invention also relates to devices and modules intended to be incorporated in such a system.

  • Patent number: 6285335
    Abstract: An antenna structure for the transmission and processing of electromagnetic microwave signals is manufactured by making holes in a number of electrically-conductive plates by a mechanical or chemical process in order to create cut-outs in the form of through holes with electrically-conductive edge surfaces. For each plate, the holes have a defined position and length from one side of each plate to its other side. The plates with the holes are stacked in a defined relative position, and the sides of the plates are fixed to each other at least around the edge surfaces formed. In this way, a number of holes are given electrically-conductively limited surfaces in the form of the edge surfaces and also the parts of the side surfaces of the surrounding plate facing the holes.
