  • Patent number: 10705200
    Abstract: An antenna system for providing identification functionality comprising a main antenna and an auxiliary antenna, wherein the antennas are configured to at least transmit electromagnetic waves. The antenna system comprises a first channel interface and a second channel interface, a first switch and a transmission input means. The first switch is configured to switch between a first operation mode and a second operation mode. When set in the first operation mode the second channel interface is set to be in connection with the auxiliary antenna and when set in the second operation mode the second channel interface is set to be in connection with the main antenna. If transmission via the first transmission channel is expected the transmission input means is configured to set the first switch in the first operation mode.

  • Publication number: 20190162840
    Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for controlling transmission of an electronically steerable antenna system, wherein the electronically steerable antenna system comprises a signal generator configured to generate electromagnetic waveforms, and an antenna. The antenna comprises an even number of antenna columns symmetrically arranged about a centerline of the antenna and thereby forming two symmetrical antenna halves. Respective antenna column comprises at least one antenna element configured at least for transmitting electromagnetic waves.

  • Patent number: 9875202
    Abstract: Peripherals (18, 20, 22, 24, 26) are connected to a processor (6) and a programmable peripheral interconnect (10) is connected to each peripheral. One of the peripherals (18) is configured to signal an event to the interconnect, and one of the peripherals (20) is configured to respond to a task signal from the interconnect by performing a task. The task-receiving peripheral (20) has a task register (40), addressable by the processor (6), and performs the task in response to a change in the contents of the register (40). The interconnect (10) accesses a memory (14) in which a mapping is stored between an event of a first peripheral (18) and a task of a second peripheral (20), the mapping comprising (i) an identification of the event, and (ii) the address of a task register (40). The mapping causes the interconnect (10) to provide a channel by sending a task signal to the second peripheral (20) in response to a signal of the event from the first peripheral (18).

  • Patent number: 6822890
    Abstract: In methods for storing data in a non-volatile ferroelectric random access memory wherein destructive readout operations are followed by rewrite operations, identical copies of the data are stored in different memory locations that do not have any common word lines or alternative neither common word lines nor common bit lines. A first word line or a segment of a first word line is read in its entirety, said word line or said segment including at least a first copy of the identical copies of data. The data thus read are rewritten to the memory location and in addition transferred from the memory location in question to an appropriate cache location, whereafter subsequent memory locations either in the form of word lines or segments thereof are read, and data rewritten to the cache location. The operation is repeated until all identical copies of the data have been transferred to the cache storage.
