Abstract: A method for beam sweeping in a wireless communication system is described. Beam sweeping includes performing a reduced beam sweep corresponding to a reduced set of beams that are a subset of a full set of beams available for transmitting and/or receiving from an antenna module, without sweeping beams that are not members of the reduced set of beams. The method includes selecting a beam out of the reduced set of beams for transmitting and/or receiving from the antenna module based on the reduced beam sweep without sweeping beams that are not members of the reduced set of beams. Related devices are disclosed.

Abstract: A system including a wireless communication device and a peripheral device communicate with each other using radio frequency (RF) waves that are propagated using a user's own body as a transmission medium. The wireless communication device selectively controls the transmit output power of the peripheral device to cause the peripheral device to transmit data and information in a low-power transmission mode. This minimizes the amount of RF waves that are received at the wireless communication device as reflected RF waves, but helps to ensure that the RF waves that do reach the wireless communication device are transmitted as surface waves along the user's skin. Responsive to the receipt of the surface waves, and based on a validity of the information carried by those surface waves, the wireless communication device transitions from a locked state to an unlocked state.

Abstract: An antenna switching method includes tuning respective signals provided to first and second antennas in a portable electronic device to at least one frequency band. The method may also include connecting the first antenna to an uplink signal path that is for transmissions through the first and second antennas, and performing impedance matching for the first antenna. The method may further include comparing a real-time performance characteristic of the first antenna with a real-time performance characteristic of the second antenna. The method may additionally include, responsive to determining that the second antenna has a stronger real-time performance characteristic than the first antenna while the first antenna is connected to the uplink signal path, switching from the first antenna to the second antenna by connecting the second antenna to the uplink signal path and disconnecting the first antenna from the uplink signal path, and performing impedance matching for the second antenna.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for transmitting data between a user equipment (15) and a base station (11) in a wireless radio network (10). The user equipment (15) comprises at least a first antenna (16) and a second antenna (17). The base station (11) comprises a plurality of antennas (12) for transmitting radio frequency signals between the base station (11) and the user equipment (15). According to the method, a first training signal is transmitted from the user equipment (15) to the base station (11) via the first antenna (16) at a first time period. Furthermore, a second training signal is transmitted from the user equipment (15) to the base station (11) via the second antenna (17) at a second time period different to the first time period. For each antenna (12) of the base station (11) a corresponding first configuration parameter is determined based on the first training signal and a corresponding second configuration parameter is determined based on the second training signal. Furthermore, first downlink data (DL1) is transmitted from the base station (11) to the user equipment using the first configuration parameters and simultaneously second downlink data (DL2) are transmitted from the base station (11) to the user equipment (15) using the second configuration parameters. Then, a first signal quality parameter of the first downlink data (DL1) is determined and a second signal quality parameter of the second downlink data (DL2) is determined. Based on the determined first and second signal quality parameters, an antenna of the first and second antennas (16, 17) of the user equipment (15) is selected for transmission of uplink data (UL1, UL2) from the user equipment (15) to the base station (11).
