Abstract: An antenna is provided for operation across multiple frequency bands. The antenna includes, in order, a ground plane and a first conductive member separated from the ground plane. The antenna also includes a pair of second conductive members forming, with the first conductive member, a resonant structure sized to resonate at a higher frequency band of the multiple frequency bands. The antenna further includes a pair of third conductive members forming a resonant structure sized to resonate at a higher frequency band of the multiple frequency bands. The first conductive member is sized to resonate at a lower frequency band of the multiple frequency bands.

Abstract: Various example embodiments describe a method comprising the steps of: obtaining, channel strengths between access points, APs, and areas covered by the APs; determining from the obtained channel strengths, propagation losses between the areas; identifying first pairs of areas with lower propagation losses and second pairs of areas with higher propagation losses; selecting, from the first pairs of areas, candidate areas for deploying mesh-operated APs; and determining, from the second pairs of areas, coverage by the respective mesh-operated APs when deployed in one or more of the candidate areas.

Abstract: Controller circuitry configured to control an optical transceiver of an optical line terminal, OLT, in a passive optical network, PON. The controller circuitry configured to derive a level of optical beat interference, OBI, of a received upstream optical signal from an optical transceiver of an optical network terminal, ONT; and set a wavelength of a downstream optical signal based on the level of OBI such that the wavelength is forced to differ from the upstream optical signal wavelength.

Abstract: According to an aspect, there is provided an antenna arrangement. Said antenna arrangement comprises two or more feed antennas adapted to transmit and receive radio signals. The two or more feed antennas comprise at least a first feed antenna adapted to operate in a first frequency band and a second feed antenna adapted to operate in a second frequency band, where the first and second frequency bands being discontiguous with each other. Moreover, the antenna arrangement comprises an antenna radome arranged around the two or more feed antennas. Said antenna radome comprises a metallic section implementing an antenna reflector for the two or more feed antennas and a nonmetallic section penetrable by radio waves.
