摘要： An active transceiver array for a wireless telecommunications network. The transceiver array comprises a plurality of calibratable transceiver modules. Each transceiver module comprises a transceiver chain operable to process a primary signal and generate a processed primary signal; a comparator unit operable to compare said primary signal and said processed primary signal to determine a transceiver chain error induced by said transceiver chain in said processed primary signal; and a correction unit which uses the transceiver error to correct said primary signal to be processed by said transceiver chain.

摘要： An antenna array and a method are disclosed. The antenna array comprises: a plurality of active antenna elements, each active antenna element being separated by a predetermined first spacing distance; and a plurality of passive antenna elements, each passive antenna element being separated by a predetermined second spacing distance. By providing both active and passive antenna elements, multiple networks can be supported by the same antenna array. Providing a dual network antenna significantly simplifies base station provision since existing base station sites may be reused more readily. Also, the number of antenna arrays which need to be provided at those base stations sites may be significantly reduced, thereby reducing mast head congestion and also reducing mast head loadings since the mass of the dual antenna array and its wind loading characteristics will be significantly less than that of two separate antenna arrays.

摘要： The power amplifier mainly includes a main amplifier, two splitters, one combiner, one subtracter, two phase shifters, one attenuator and one error amplifier. The splitters, subtracter and combiner are designed in the form of 90-degree or quadrature hybrid couplers. A quadrature hybrid can be implemented with any lumped or transmission-line elements and has an important advantage compared to the in-phase splitter that at equal values of reflection coefficients from loads connected to the in phase and 90° phase shift terminals, the reflection wave is lacking at the main input terminal and, consequently, the input voltage standing wave ratio of a quadrature hybrid does not depend on the equal load mismatch level.

摘要： A wide-bandwidth aperture antenna is constructed of two parallel metal plates 51, 52, each having a resonant aperture 53, 54. The apertured plates are arranged parallel to one another, with the apertures aligned. A third plate 57 is arranged parallel to the apertured plates to act as a reflector. The resonant apertures are in the form of squares with rounded corners. Feed stubs 55 and 56 are arranged between the apertured plates and project into the region between the apertures to excite orthogonally polarized modes. The feed stubs are in the form of strips which are aligned in planes perpendicular to the planes of the apertured plates. An exemplary embodiment has a bandwidth of 1700 MHz to 3300 MHz, containing the bands used for GSM 1800, UMTS, UMTS+, Bluetooth and WLAN systems. The feed is high-impedance and the decoupling better than −11 dB over the whole bandwidth.
