摘要： A folded metal dipole antenna includes a balun having two sides, the sides having metal contact end portions for electrical connection to a printed circuit board, two radiating elements, each radiating element in coplanar relationship to a corresponding side of the balun, and an antenna support member having a spacer portion placed between the two sides of the balun. The spacer portion is used to separate one radiating element of the dipole antenna from another radiating element of the dipole antenna.

摘要： A method for testing a power amplifier assembled in a gateway connected to a service provider network includes remotely testing the radio of the gateway. The method configures the gateway to perform a first baseline receive noise measurement and compare it to a second receiver noise measurement. The power amplifier is determined to be in a fault condition if the second receiver noise measurement is greater than the baseline receiver noise measurement.
