Systems and methods for user specific antenna down tilt in wireless cellular networks are disclosed. A preferred embodiment method comprises synthesizing a plurality of virtual antennas from a single physical antenna, wherein a total number of virtual antennas is less than a total number of antenna elements in the physical antenna, transmitting pilot signals on the plurality of virtual antennas, receiving, from a user equipment, a pre-coding control indicator based on the transmitted pilot signals, determining a multiple-input multiple output pre-coding vector based on the pre-coding control indicator, and transmitting user data modulated by the pre-coding vector to the user equipment via the plurality of virtual antennas.

Cellular signals or other wireless signals/messages are introduced into a building or to an outside location by transmitting packets corresponding to those signals over a data network and low cost cables to designated locations within the data network. Once the designated packets containing the signals reach the destination, they are then broadcast over the air to a terminal capable of receiving the wireless message. In a first embodiment, an in-building gigabit Ethernet network, such as that currently existing presently in many buildings, is used to distribute radio signals indoors. Instead of transmitting the radio signals over the air from a repeater connected to a base station, coded baseband signals generated by the coding processor (e.g., a CDMA Modem Unit) in the base station are packetized and sent over the Ethernet network to radio processing equipment and antennas distributed throughout the building. The radio processing equipment strips the packet headers from the baseband signal packets so those signals can be broadcast via the antennas to one or more mobile terminals.

The identification of wireless communication base stations in a region of high base station density is effected using a specific identification signal pattern transmitted by the base stations. In particular, each base station transmits a signal having a pattern with at least two time phase shifts relative to at least one time benchmark. The combination of these phase shifts allows identification of the transmitting base station. Since a plurality of phase shifts leads to a concomitantly larger number of phase shift combinations, the capacity to identify base stations is enlarged.

A signal notching system reduces signal peaks by notching the peak of a signal above a threshold to produce a notched signal. The notched signal is then filtered to produce a resulting signal with a reduced peak amplitude. For example, in an implementation where the signal is represented by signal samples, the peak notching system first locates a peak sample that is beyond a threshold, such as a sample representing a positive peak sample of a peak above the threshold. Once a peak sample is located, the peak notching system adjusts the peak sample by an amount which is a function of the amount that the peak sample is beyond the threshold, effectively creating a notched signal with a one sample notch at the peak. The peak notching system filters the notched signal to fill in the notch to produce a signal with a reduced peak.

A high-frequency, e.g., microwave, filter (100, 300, 400) is made, e.g., stamped or etched, from a single sheet (110, 310, 410) of electrically conductive material, e.g., a metal plate or a printed circuit board. The sheet defines a frame (112, 312, 412-413), one or more resonant filter elements (114, 311-315, 411-415) inside of the frame, one or more supports (116, 316-317, 416) connecting each resonant filter element to the frame, and a flange (118, 318, 418) on one of the resonant filter elements. The flange serves as an electrical contact to the filter; another flange (317, 417) on another element, or the frame itself, serves as a second contact. An electrically conductive housing (104, 304, 404) encapsulates both faces of the sheet.

The disclosed superconducting multipole RF filter comprises a multiplicity of coupled circular disk resonators designed for operation in the TM 010 mode. The disk resonators are arranged in a co-axial stack, with a circular metal spacer sandwiched between any two neighboring disk resonators. Each metal spacer has a central through-aperture, with a conductive member disposed in the through-aperture and electrically connecting the two neighboring disk resonators that are sandwiching a given metal spacer. A disk resonator comprises two circular members, each circular member comprising a circular dielectric substrate, exemplarily a LaAlO.sub.3 wafer. Superconducting layers (typically YBCO) are disposed on each major surface of the substrate. The two members are joined together such that conductive layers (typically gold) electrically connect the two outside superconducting layers. The disclosed RF filter has good power handling capability, is compact, has good heat removal and relatively simple tuning. It can, for instance, be advantageously used as transmit filter in base stations of a wireless communication system.
