摘要:
A novel system and method for a network overlay geolocation system operating in a host wireless communication system with repeaters is disclosed. Embodiments of the novel system and method enable a wireless communication system to determine if signals being received by system receivers arrive directly from a target mobile appliance or if the signals are passing through or via a repeater. In an embodiment, the system's repeaters use a co-channel AM Golay Hadamard sequence multiplied by an uplink signal to watermark the repeated signal. The system uses the known AM Golay Hadamard sequences of the repeaters and the waveform of the received uplink signal to detect whether a repeater has operated on the signal and which repeater operated on the uplink signal. Embodiments of the novel system and method provide system management data and can be used to provide more accurate geolocation of mobiles served by repeater stations.

An antenna for communicating with mobile devices in a land-based cellular communication system via an antenna beam having a width, azimuth angle and downtilt angle. The antenna includes: a two dimensional array of radiating elements (31-34); and a feed network (35-39) from a feed line to the radiating elements. The feed network includes: downtilt phase shifting means (35,36) for varying the phase of signals supplied to or received from the radiating elements so as to vary the downtilt angle of the antenna beam; azimuth phase shifting (38,39) means for varying the phase of signals supplied to or received from the radiating elements so as to vary the azimuth angle of the antenna beam; and beam width adjustment means (37) for varying the power or phase of signals supplied to or received from the radiating elements so as to vary the width of the antenna beam.

An antenna includes radiating elements and a ground structure formed as a single unitary conductive member, the radiating elements extending from the ground structure such that some of the radiating elements are spaced from the ground structure on a first side thereof, others of the radiating elements being spaced from the ground structure on a second side thereof. The antenna may be an omnidirectional antenna and the single conductive member may be formed as a single metal sheet.

A circuit for pre-distorting a signal input to an amplifier includes a signal divider operable for dividing an input signal into signal portions that travel in a primary path and a secondary path. A delay element in each of the primary and secondary paths introduces a group delay to the signal portions in the respective paths. A signal combiner is operable for combining the signals in the respective paths into a combined output signal. A variable gain circuit is arranged in each of the primary and secondary paths. The variable gain circuit is operable to vary the level of the input signal in each path and thereby modulate the overall phase delay of the combined output signal.

An antenna includes a main controller for communicating with an external system, a plurality of peripheral devices and a number of sub-controllers. The peripheral devices are associated with sub-controllers. The main controller communicates with the peripheral devices over a hybrid communications bus, addressing both bus-addressable devices and serial addressable devices.

A sealing assembly for a cable to apparatus electrical interconnection. The assembly having a unitary cylindrical gasket, the outer diameter of the cylindrical gasket provided with an insertion opening to an interconnection cavity; the insertion opening having a generally circle sector shape at a cable end and an apparatus end, the insertion opening extending between the cable end and the apparatus end along the outer diameter. A generally C-shaped outer shell is dimensioned to seat along the outer diameter, the outer shell having outward protruding edge lips aligned with the insertion opening along the outer diameter. The edge lips movable towards one another to a closed position wherein the insertion opening is closed around the electrical interconnection; and means for retaining, such as a locking bar that fits over the edge lips.
摘要:
A satellite communications interoperability module and method for frequency down-conversion. The module insertable in-line with an intra-facility link communicating a multiplexed signal between the outdoor unit (ODU) and the indoor unit (IDU). Electrical circuitry of the module transforming and forwarding the multiplexed signal over the intra-facility link, the multiplexed signal including at least direct current, a standard tone, and L-band data signals. Switching means of the module specifies operations performed by the electrical circuitry to transform the multiplexed signal frequencies, waveforms and voltages according to predetermined parameters compatible between the ODU and the IDU. An interoperability method for compatibility with a range of different indoor units applied by the interoperability module and or incorporated into an integral ODU is application of a second frequency shift upon the L-band signal output from the ODU primary down-conversion circuit.
