    摘要: Techniques for compensating for the time misalignment of receive-transmit switching in a multi-antenna radio network node are disclosed. An example method begins with the detection (1020) of signal transmission timing for each of two or more antennas associated with the radio network node, for at least a first transmission period. Next, the radio network node determines (1030) that transmit timing for at least one of the antennas is misaligned by at least a first threshold time interval, based on the detected signal transmission timings. The example method continues with the adjustment (1040) of transmit timing for at least one of the antennas for one or more subsequent transmission periods, responsive to determining that the transmission timing for at least one of the antennas is misaligned.

The control unit (306, 416) activates the switch (308, 418) when the output power of the transmitted signals falls below a threshold, and the delay component (304, 404) delays so that the diverted signals are received by the receiver part (303; 402-405) at a predefined point in time. The transceiver (300) comprises a comparison unit (307, 417) for comparing the diverted signals from the first and second transmitters after reception through the first receiver.

    摘要: Method and radio node (500) for controlling a change of communication mode between transmit mode and receive mode according to a Time Division Duplex, TDD, scheme. The radio node has at least two parallel branches (504, 06) for transmission and reception of radio signals, wherein the branches currently operate in a first communication mode. The radio node obtains one or more indication signals (S1A, S1B) generated by one or more of the branches to indicate that the first mode has been turned off. When it is determined that the first communication mode has not been turned off in a faulty branch, e.g. by not receiving an indication signal in time from that branch,the first mode is disabled in the faulty branch, and/or the faulty branch is reported to a supervision centre (510). Thereby, it can be discovered when one of the branches is misaligned or otherwise faulty and suitable actions can be taken for repairing or replacing the faulty branch.

    摘要: In TDD mobile networks, an incoming signal is received during a time period where no uplink communication takes place. The incoming signal is measured and analyzed to determine a noise level. Based on the noise level and on an uplink signal level from expected in a future uplink time slot, a gain for the automatic gain controller is set for use in future uplink communications. The gain is set to optimize the operation of an analog-to-digital converter.
