  • Patent number: 7844276
    Abstract: A calibration procedure of wireless networks to create a topology map mainly consists of two phases: a measurement phase during which each wireless device, i. e. all mobile terminals end the central controller transmits a calibration signal in broadcast mode (S2, S3, S4) and each other wireless device measures the received signal quality and the reporting phase during which each mobile terminal reports the measured results to the central controller of the network (S6, S7). Both of these phases are preferably initiated by the central controller the measurement phase with the broadcast of a measurement control signal to all mobile terminals (S1) and the reporting phase with the broadcast of a reporting control signal to all mobile terminals (S5). Based on all measurement results the central controller creates a topology map of the network once all reports have been received.

  • Publication number: 20060286979
    Abstract: A method for logging a radio module into a cellular radio network, where the radio module automatically logs into the radio network when it is turned on by virtue of it transmitting a login message to the radio network, the radio network storing login data for the radio module and these the login data being deleted again when the radio module logs out. In response to an autoreset signal in the radio module a controlled autoreset is triggered in which the radio module temporarily turns off and then on again or temporally deactivates from the radio network and then registers again.

  • Patent number: 7130361
    Abstract: An OFDM telecommunication device, i.e. a receiver, transmitter or transceiver for OFDM—(Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplex) signals that generally employs the Inverse Fourier Transformation (IFT) technique to encode and transmit time-division multiplex signals and the Fourier Transformation (FT) technique to decode the received signals into time-division multiplex signals comprises a transformation unit (2) that incorporates at least an analog multiplication step and at least an analog convolution step of a multiplication convolution multiplication algorithm or a convolution multiplication convolution signal to perform a fourier transformation for demodulation and/or an inverse fourier transformation for modulation into the analog stage of said OFDM telecommunication device.

  • Patent number: 6925286
    Abstract: A transmit power control applicable for direct mode in a central controller based wireless network is described whereby direct mode indicates a direct communication of two network terminals (1, 15) without routing the traffic through the central controller (18). According to the present invention the transmit power control is performed by means of exchanging messages (S1, S2, S3) between the peer network devices (1, 15) in which recommendations for power control are carried.

  • Patent number: 6370369
    Abstract: Performing an antenna diversity set-up according to the present invention a first mobile terminal (1) transmits a pre-defined antenna calibration signal to a second mobile terminal (15) using its omni-directional antenna (10). During the period of the transmitted signal the best receiving antenna (x) is identified at the second mobile terminal (15) by switching all its directional antennas (21 to 28) and its omni-directional antenna (20) into its receiving path and measuring the received signal quality, e.g. the received signal strength. The directional antenna (x) of the second network device (15) which is identified as best receiving antenna is then used for transmission and reception of data transfer with the first network device (1).

  • Publication number: 20020037742
    Abstract: The invention is related to an arrangement for isolation of signals between a receiving branch (RX) and a transmitting branch (TX) of a multiband radio system. Each of said branches (RX, TX) comprises at least two radio frequency filters (RF1, RF2; TF1, TF2) with a stop band function. Within each of said branches (RX, TX) each of said radio frequency filters (RF1, RF2; TF1, TF2) is adapted to a given frequency band, whereby said frequency bands are different from each other. Furtheron there are provided a receive/transmit switch (RTSW) and a receiving/transmitting filter selector (RTFS).

  • Patent number: 5872806
    Abstract: A spread spectrum signal transmission method and spread spectrum signal transmission system in which a carrier frequency is frequency modulated with an analog or digital baseband signal in a transmitter, the frequency modulated carrier is converted into a pulse sequence, each pulse is converted into a band-spread signal linked with a code and transmitted via an antenna, and wherein the transmitted signal is subsequently received by an antenna and linked with a code which is the time inverse of the first named code, whereby a sequence of correlation peaks arises, which are converted into a pulse sequence and subsequently frequency demodulated to obtain an output signal corresponding to the analog or digital baseband signal. The method or the system make it possible to achieve an interference-free transmission of both analog and also digital signals with low transmitter power and/or large range, with a low number of system components, i.e. with simple and cost favorable system components.
