Abstract: The application relates to an antenna device for transmitting high-frequency signals from or to a motor vehicle. The antenna device comprises a first radio module and a second radio module, which provide high-frequency signals for transmission via an antenna, and an antenna module comprising the antenna and a compensator. The antenna module is connected to the first radio module via a first antenna cable, and to the second radio module via a second antenna cable. The compensator is designed to modify a signal strength of the high-frequency signals in accordance with a control signal. The first radio module and the second radio module are designed to generate the control signal for controlling the compensator, wherein in order to control the compensator, the second radio module modulates the control signal for the first radio module onto the second antenna cable.

Abstract: A radio system comprises a front-end receiver for receiving an RF signal and converting the RF signal into a digital payload signal. The system further comprises a base-band processor for processing the digital payload signal, and a serial data interface over which the front-end communicates the digital payload signal and meta data to the base-band processor. The meta data may comprise information indicating whether a corresponding digital payload signal communicated over the serial data interface is valid and additional information of the front-end status, e.g. gain or state of tuning.

Abstract: A digital radio system comprises a mixer and an analog-to-digital converter communicative coupled to the mixer. The mixer generates an intermediate frequency signal based at least in part upon a radio frequency signal and a local oscillator signal, wherein the intermediate frequency signal comprises a signal of interest having a particular bandwidth. The analog-to-digital converter generates a digital signal by quantizing the intermediate frequency signal using a sampling frequency that is greater than twice the bandwidth of the signal of interest and less than the frequency of the intermediate frequency signal.
