Abstract: The present invention relates generally to communication and more specifically to techniques for power control in a wireless communication network. More particularly the present invention relates to method for controlling the radio output power in a mobile entity comprising a transmitter and a receiver for communicating with a radio base station over a communication channel, comprising receiving a message comprising an indication of a target transmit power from a base station, estimating a transmit power of said transmitter based on the received target transmit power and the actual conditions of the communication channel and adjusting (403) the transmit power of the radio transceiver in accordance with the estimation. The invention also relates to a mobile entity or a computer program comprising means for performing the method.

Abstract: A wireless communication device comprises a wide area transceiver, an auxiliary receiver, a plurality of antennas for use by said auxiliary receiver and said wide area transceiver, and an antenna selection circuit. The antenna selection circuit selects an antenna configuration for the auxiliary receiver and the wide area transceiver. The antenna selection circuit is configured to measure a link quality for one or more of antennas used by the auxiliary receiver, and select an antenna configuration for the wide area transceiver based on the link quality measurements for the auxiliary receiver.

Abstract: Switch arrangement (18) that comprises a plunger member (22) that is arranged to be displaced between a first position and a second position. The plunger member (22) is arranged to establish electrical contact in a first transmission line (A-D) in said first position and to establish electrical contact in a second transmission line (A-C) in a second position, whereby the displacement of said plunger member (22) is arranged to break electrical contact with said first transmission line (A-D) while said plunger member (22) is being displaced from said first position into said second position, and to break electrical contact with said second transmission line (A-C) while said plunger member (22) is being displaced from said second position into said first position.

Abstract: A system comprising an antenna, an antenna matching network, an amplifier of a radio frequency (RF) module, a matching circuit, and a switch. The switch is configured to selectively connect said amplifier to test apparatus via said matching circuit when in a first position, and to said antenna via said antenna matching network when it is in a second position.

Abstract: A microwave conducting structure is described, in which a first electrically conductive layer, a first dielectric substrate with a first dielectric constant being arranged on the first electrically conductive layer, and at least one electrically conductive trace with a first width being arranged on or within the dielectric substrate are provided. A track of a second dielectric substrate having a second width being wider than the first width and a second dielectric constant being lower than the first dielectric constant, is arranged locally between the first dielectric substrate and the conductive trace so as to extend along the conductive trace such that the conductive trace operates electrically as being arranged on the second dielectric substrate.

Abstract: A multilayered printed wiring board, a multilayer PWB, and a method for manufacturing the same. The multilayer PWB comprises a first main surface and an opposing second main surface, where the multilayer PWB has a height being defined by the distance from the first main surface to the opposing second main surface. The two surfaces and the height together define the thickness of the multilayer PWB. The multilayer PWB comprises a reference ground plane, a microstrip conductor separated from the reference ground plane by a first dielectric layer and a stripline conductor connected with the microstrip conductor and being separated from the reference ground plane by a second dielectric layer. The reference ground plane is formed by two or more different partial reference ground planes positioned at different layers of the multilayer PWB.
