    摘要: Methods, apparatus and computer programs for transmitting and/or receiving information are described. Information encoded in a carrier signal comprising a modulation pattern superimposed on a grid frequency at which electricity flows in a synchronous area of an electric power grid, is decoded by measuring, at a receiving device, a characteristic relating to a frequency of electricity flowing in the electric power grid, accessing data indicative of one or more predetermined code patterns and performing a correlation process to determine a correlation between the modulation pattern and one of the one or more predetermined code patterns. The information is decoded on the basis of the determined correlation. This enables information to be easily transmitted within a synchronous area of the electric power grid.

    摘要: A network device may be configured to adapt beamforming parameters for a communication region of a powerline cycle in response to variations in communication channel conditions. A first network device can estimate initial beamforming parameters for each communication region based on sounding messages received from a second network device. The first network device can determine coarse beamforming parameters for each communication region based on data packets received from the second network device using the initial beamforming parameters. The first network device can determine a difference parameter for the first communication region based, at least in part, on a first initial beamforming parameter associated with the first communication region and a first coarse beamforming parameter associated with the first communication region. The first network device can compare the difference parameter with a difference threshold to determine whether to estimate a first modified beamforming parameter for a first communication region.

    摘要: A control device (1) for transmitting an item of control information to at least one lamp unit, which has at least one light-emitting means and can be operated on alternating current, has a switchable output stage (18), a power supply (20), a zero crossing identification device (13) and a modulator for generating a modulation voltage for applying the item of control information to the AC voltage supplied to the lamp unit via the control device (1). Part of the control device (1) is also a logic unit (14). The control device (1) has a switchable parallel branch (21), via which, when switched, an impedance can be connected which is greater than the impedance of the output stage (18). In this case, provision is made for the parallel branch (21), when switched, to form a shunt via the power supply (20) in such a way that the internal resistance of the power supply (20) or, in the event of the presence of a plurality of internal resistances in the power supply (20), said internal resistances represent, overall or partially, the usable impedance. The invention also describes a method for determining the time of the beginning of a modulation phase following an operating phase by means of a control device (1), with a shunt being switched once said operating phase has ended in the lamp unit. Prior to the beginning of the shunt circuit flow connected on the lamp side, the output stage (18) is deactivated and the parallel branch (21) is activated in the control device (1). Upon detection of the shunt circuit flow, the output stage (18) is then activated and the parallel branch (21) deactivated before the data transmission begins.
