Abstract: A Radio Frequency, “RF”, component and a method of making the same. The component comprises a first electrically conductive signal member for conveying an RF signal and a second electrically conductive signal member for conveying an RF signal. The component also comprises a barrier located between the first signal member and the second signal member electromagnetically to shield the first and second signal members from each other. The barrier comprises a first row of electrically conductive shielding members spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the first row, and a second row of electrically conductive shielding members spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the second row. Each shielding member comprises a polyhedron. The shielding members of the first row are offset with respect to the shielding members of the second row to prevent a direct line of sight between the first signal member and the second signal member.

Abstract: A power amplifier cell comprising a first power amplifier, a second power amplifier and a balun. The balun comprises a first inductor and a second inductor that define a first transformer; and a third inductor and a fourth inductor that define a second transformer. The following: (i) a parasitic capacitance of the first power amplifier; (ii) a leakage inductance of the first transformer; and (iii) a capacitive coupling between the first inductor and the second inductor, contribute to a first impedance matching circuit for the first power amplifier. Also, the following (iv) a parasitic capacitance of the second power amplifier; (v) a leakage inductance of the second transformer; and (vi) a capacitive coupling between the third inductor and the fourth inductor, contribute to a second impedance matching circuit for the second power amplifier.

Abstract: A transmission line includes a signal conductor and one or more return conductors, one or more of which having a stepped multi-layer structure. The return conductors may be disposed at opposite sides of the signal conductor. The return conductors may be multi-layer structures. At least some layers of each return conductor may have a stepped arrangement that defines a curve, such as an exponential curve. Additionally or alternatively, the signal conductor may be a stepped multi-layer structure, where at least some layers of the signal conductor may define a curve, such as an exponential curve. The signal conductor may be disposed at one or more upper layers of the transmission line or may be embedded at one or more layers near the center of the transmission line.

Abstract: A multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna system for a mobile cellular network and method is described. The MIMO antenna system includes an array of dual-polarization patch antennas each having first and second polarization feed-points, a first polarization radio chain and a second polarization radio chain. The MIMO antenna system includes a beamformer coupled to the first and second polarization radio chains. The beamformer includes a beamformer channel for a respective feedpoint and further includes a transmit amplifier and a detector (coupler) coupled to a transmit amplifier output. In one mode of operation, a signal is transmitted via the first polarization feed-point of a dual-polarisation patch antennas and a replica of the transmitted signal may be sensed using the coupler at the output of the transmit amplifier and routed via the second polarization radio chain to a digital predistortion module. The digital pre-distortion module is configured to digitally pre-distort a signal for transmission dependent on the replica of the RF signal.
