Abstract: A cellular telephone includes a plurality of power amplifiers having a common operating region. If one of the amplifiers has to be deselected, a desired moment for the switching to another amplifier is defined based upon a predetermined transmission interrupt criterion. The power continues to be adjusted with the currently selected amplifier until the instant of switch over. Switching to the other amplifier may then be performed after the transmission has been interrupted.

Abstract: A device includes a receiver including an estimation block for estimating the impulse response of the transmission channel and a transformation block. The transformation block may include a preprocessing block for determining a phase minimum transformed impulse response corresponding to a transformed channel based upon the estimated impulse response of the transmission channel, and a filter for filtering the signal received. This makes it possible to retain equality between the autocorrelation of the signal received and the autocorrelation of the filtered signal. Further, the receiver may include an equalizer for applying an equalization processing operation to the filtered signal while taking account of the transformed impulse response.

Abstract: A method for processing an incident pulsed signal of an ultra wide band type received over a channel by a data device operating in a wireless data communications system is provided. The incident pulsed signal carries information within a super-frame structure. Upon reception of each super-frame structure by a data device, coarse synchronization is performed with another data device acting as a coordinator device for the wireless data communications system. The coarse synchronization uses a first training sequence. Upon reception of each frame allocated to the data device operating within the super-frame structure, channel estimation is performed using a second training sequence. The channel estimation also performs a frame synchronization.

Abstract: A method for controlling frequency of a local oscillator in a DS-CDMA type receiver includes transforming a known spread spectrum signal into a sampled digital signal formed of symbols with a despreaded frequency spectrum, and determining a residual frequency error fe for each symbol including a first residual frequency error fe1. The method further includes correcting the frequency of the local oscillator with the residual frequency errors, and determining an average of absolute values of a predetermined number of successive residual frequency errors. The average is compared with a threshold, and if the average is greater than or equal to the threshold, the local oscillator frequency is corrected using an error equal to nullsgn(fe1) (1/Tnullnullfe1null), where sgn is the sign function, null null is the absolute value function and T is duration of a symbol before determining the next residual frequency error associated with the next symbol.
