摘要: A communication system utilizing reconfigurable antenna systems is described where beam steering and null forming techniques are incorporated to limit the region or volume available for communication with client devices. The communication system described restricts communication to defined or desired area and degrades signal strength coverage outside of a prescribed region. An algorithm is used to control the antenna system to monitor and control antenna system performance across the service area. This antenna system technique is applicable for use in communication systems such as a Local Area Network (LAN), cellular communication network, and Machine to Machine (M2M).

摘要: A communication system is described where multiple communication networks are simultaneously accessible from a plurality of fixed and/or mobile communication devices. A Master and Slave hierarchy is implemented among the communication devices to improve communication properties on one or multiple networks. A network system controller is implemented to select the network with optimal communication characteristics for subsets of communication devices as well as assigning Master status to a communication device within these subsets.

摘要: An RFIC with memory is described where the memory can be used to house a look-up table for tuning components designed into the RFIC, providing a customized tuning circuit for antenna and transceiver front-end tuning applications. The look-up table can be loaded at wafer level during the manufacturing process to customize an RFIC design for a specific antenna system. The memory can be used to restrict or tailor the tuning range of tunable capacitors and switches within the RFIC to optimize performance in the end application. The resident memory will improve signaling latency when tuning for time critical applications such as channel tuning in a cellular communication system.

摘要: The disclosure concerns a tunable logarithmic detector amplifier (TLDA) system where dynamic tuning functionality is applied to resonant circuits used for feedback control as well as applying tuning to the amplifier. Control signals for the tuning function are generated from the baseband processor. The control of the amplifier tuning and resonator tuning can be performed from information derived from baseband where metrics such as SNR, SINR or CQI are used to optimize system performance. Bandwidth and sensitivity of the receiver are key specifications targeted for optimization using this technique. This technique can be implemented in designs where a wide bandwidth is required.

摘要: A load balancing method for cellular communication systems and communication systems in general is described where beam steering antenna systems on the client or user side of the communication link are used to optimize load balancing among the base stations or nodes. A system controller containing an algorithm is implemented to control the radiation modes from the client or user devices to assign the client or user devices to the various base stations or nodes and to dynamically vary the network load across the cellular or communication system.
