Abstract: The present invention concerns a method and system for detection of a circuit board to be installed in an apparatus such as an electric drive. At least one first element is fixedly arranged at at least one defined position on the surface of the circuit board and at least one second element is fixedly arranged at at least one defined position in a housing of the circuit board. The at least one first element interacts with the at least one second element during installation of the required circuit board. A matching signal or decoding signal is generated when the first element and the second element interact. The invention further concerns an apparatus such as an electric drive with at least one circuit board arranged in a housing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for transferring signal data from a sender to one or more receivers. The invention includes receiving a quantity as a function of time, arranging the quantity into a first polynomial to obtain values for polynomial coefficients of a first continuous signal, and transferring the values of the polynomial coefficients of the first continuous signal via a first data transfer link to one or more receivers.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for bypassing a low noise amplifier unit in the front stage of a radio receiver, especially intended for the base stations of mobile communication networks. The front stage includes, in succession, a divider (420), an amplifier unit (430) comprising two parallel, low noise amplifier branches, and a first combiner (450). The by-pass arrangement includes a second combiner (443), by which the halves (E11, E12) of the received signal are combined immediately after the divider before the amplification. A change-over switch (SW) is then used to select either the signal that has propagated through the amplifier unit and then combined (G·E1) or the signal (E1?) that has been directly combined as the output signal of the front stage. Due to the invention, the noise figure of the front stage is improved and the integration of its structure is facilitated.

Abstract: An arrangement for bypassing a low-noise amplifier (LNA), intended especially to be used in base stations of mobile networks. For the bypass, a receiver antenna filter (210) has a second output (OUT2) parallel with a first output (OUT1) connected to the LNA. The antenna filter is of the resonator type, and there is a conductive element for each of its outputs in the resonator cavity. Selection between the LNA out-put signal and signal coming direct from the antenna filter is made by a changeover switch (SW). The noise figure of the receiver front stage (220) will improve as the series switch on the signal path, which most degrades the noise figure, is removed between the filter and LNA, and isolation on the LNA bypass path increases.
