摘要:
A portable test chamber with an open top may serve as a field testing apparatus for wireless testing of electronic devices. A wireless device under test may be mounted within a cavity in the test chamber. The cavity may be surrounded by a dielectric lining of anechoic material. A layer of electromagnetic shielding such as metal foil may cover the outer surfaces of the dielectric lining. The chamber may have a box shape with a rectangular opening at its top. Satellite navigation system signals or other wireless signals may be received through the opening at the top of the test chamber during testing. The electromagnetic shielding may reduce the effects of multipath interference during field tests.

摘要:
An electronic device may include sensitive circuitry such as radio-frequency receiver circuitry. A noise source may produce radio-frequency interference that can disrupt operation of the sensitive circuitry. The noise source may include a first transmitter such as a cellular telephone transmitter and as second transmitter such as a wireless local area network transmitter. Interference may be produced by simultaneous operation of the first and second transmitters. The radio-frequency receiver circuitry may be satellite navigation system receiver circuitry that includes one or more satellite navigation receivers. The impact of interference may be reduced by blanking the satellite navigation system receiver, by imposing a duty cycle limitation on the second transmitter, by switching between alternative receivers in the satellite navigation system receiver circuitry, by using an interference-dependent cross-correlation protection scheme, or by using a combination of these schemes.

The invention provides a method and system for adaptive point to multipoint wireless communication. The wireless physical layer and the wireless media-access-control (MAC) layer collectively include a set of parameters, which are adaptively modified by a base station controller for communication with a plurality of customer premises equipment. The base station controller adjusts communication with each customer premises equipment individually and adaptively in response to changes in characteristics of communication, including physical characteristics, amount of communication traffic, and nature of application for the communication traffic.
摘要:
An electronic device such as a cellular telephone may include transceiver circuitry for handling wireless communications. The transceiver circuitry may include a transceiver such as a cellular telephone transceiver or a wireless local area network receiver and may include a satellite positioning system receiver. Radio-frequency circuitry may be used to couple the transceiver circuitry to antenna structures. When operating the transceiver in different modes of operation, the radio-frequency circuitry may be adjusted to optimize performance. Adjustments to the radio-frequency circuitry may impose phase offsets on satellite positioning system signals that are received through the antenna structures and radio-frequency circuitry. These phase offsets which would otherwise cause degradation in the satellite positioning system receiver can be compensated by applying stored compensating phase offset values to the satellite positioning system receiver during operation.
摘要:
A system that adapts wireless link parameters for a wireless communication link. A measure is determined of errors occurring in communication over a wireless link. In a case that the measure of errors corresponds to more errors than a first predetermined threshold, communication changes from a first set of wireless link parameters to a second set of wireless link parameters. The second set of wireless link parameters corresponds to higher error tolerance than the first set of wireless link parameters. In a case that the measure of errors corresponds to fewer errors than a second predetermined threshold, communication changes from the first set of wireless link parameters to a third set of wireless link parameters. The third set of wireless link parameters corresponds to lower error tolerance than the first set of wireless link parameters. Preferably, the measure of errors is determined by monitoring a number of NACK messages and a number of ACK messages that occur. It is determined that the measure of errors corresponds to more errors than the first predetermined threshold when more than a predetermined number of NACK messages occur in succession. It is determined that the measure of errors corresponds to fewer errors than the second predetermined threshold when more than a predetermined number of ACK messages occur in succession.
