  • Radio frequency network
    Patent number: 8428033
    Abstract: The present invention relates to radio frequency (RF) distribution systems for mobile communications. In particular, the present invention relates to a radio frequency network facilitating radio communication where the usual free space propagation of electromagnetic waves is hampered, undesired or impossible, for example in tunnels, mines, and buildings and in large complexes like exhibition grounds, shopping malls, and airports. The radio frequency network comprises a distributed antenna system having radiating elements, a wired distribution system feeding the distributed antenna system, at least one antenna amplifier between one end of the wired distribution system and the distributed antenna system, at least one line amplifier at the other end of the wired distribution system, and automatic self-leveling units included in the antenna and line amplifiers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 27, 2009
    Date of Patent: April 23, 2013
    Assignee: Alcatel Lucent
    Inventors: Heinz-Dieter Hettstedt, Robert Zorad, Axel Schroeder, Gerd Klauke, Ekkehard Schomburg
  • Method and system for optical transmission signal level configuration
    Patent number: 7945170
    Abstract: The invention relates to an optical transmission system comprising transmitter and receiver devices and comprising automatic optical signal level configuration means which provide the same fixed output signal level for a received signal level range, and the system comprising at least one automatic self-level unit in the transmitter device and at least one automatic self-level unit in the receiver device.
