  • Patent number: 10567052
    Abstract: Using High-beam and low-beam transmission signals that have different antenna tilts, different beam-widths, and different polarizations than one another may provide performance advantages in wireless networks. The high-beam transmission signal and the low-beam transmission signal may have orthogonal polarizations. For example, the high-beam transmission signal and the low-beam transmission signal may be linearly polarized signals having different electromagnetic field (E-field) polarization angles with respect to the y-axis, e.g., +/?forty-five degrees with respect to a vertically polarized wave. As another example, the high-beam transmission signal may be a vertically polarized signal, and the low-beam transmission signal may be a horizontally polarized signal, or vice-versa. In addition to having orthogonal polarizations, the low-beam transmission signal may have a greater antenna beam down-tilt angle, and a wider beam-width than the high-beam transmission signal.

  • Patent number: 7376416
    Abstract: A radiotelephone terminal unit is provided for a subscriber who has a portable radiotelephone terminal of the mobile network type or cordless telephone type which can be carried around by a user and by means of which the user communicates via a communication network to which the user is connected by radio via a relay transceiver station. The unit includes a radiotelephone terminal which is complementary to the portable radiotelephone terminal, preferably remains in place, and can be used conjointly with the portable radiotelephone terminal when connected to the relay transceiver station by a call set up via the station. Complementary functions of the two terminals can be employed by the same user having simultaneous access to both terminals.
