Abstract:
A transreceiver allows efficient operation in a full or half-duplex TDD or FDD system. The preferred transreceiver includes a common set of filters used for both FDD (Frequency Division Duplex) and TDD (Time Division Duplex) operation in a given range of frequencies thereby reducing circuitry count and implementation costs. Thus, the transreceiver of the present invention can operate in FDD operation or TDD operation.
A capacitive signal coupling device to link an antenna radiating element to a peripheral device is disclosed. The capacitive signal coupling device includes a support and at least one conductive element on a first surface of the support. The conductive element is positioned to align with the radiating element of an antenna system and also includes a connector to enable a peripheral device to be connected to a transceiver antenna system without violating the integrity of the transceiver unit itself or without interrupting the operation of the transceiver system.

Abstract:
A forward error correction (FEC) method is provided that operates in a multiple access format, such as, e. g. , a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) format. An FEC transband central station and a plurality of FEC transband remote stations transmit data and corresponding error correction data therebetween during time frames. The time frames are divided into in-band time slots during which the traffic data is transmitted and out-of-band time slots during which the error correction data may be transmitted. The FEC transband remote stations that are assigned to the out-of-band time slots are efficiently and dynamically adjusted during communication.
An integrated radiating enclosure is disclosed. The enclosure housing is formed from a dielectric material with a radiating element formed on the exterior surface of the housing and a groundplane material formed on the interior of the housing. The groundplane provides EMI shielding for the enclosed electronics. The three antenna elements are directly connected to the circuitry of a transceiver system, thereby integrating the transceiver antenna components directly into the transceiver enclosure.
An antenna utilizes multiple radiating elements placed at regular interval around a geometric structure. Each of the individual radiating elements are selectably activated in order to narrow the range of transmission and reception for the antenna. Larger antenna gain is achieved by narrowing the radiation pattern and each individual radiating element has significantly more gain than an omni-directional radiator while also reducing the power output requirements of the transmitter.

Switchless Combining Of Multi-Carrier Coherent And Incoherent Carriers
The invention is a combiner and a method for selectively combining modulated signals. The combiner includes a first modulator () with a selective input which receives at least one input signal and a first carrier signal and which outputs a first output modulated with the first carrier signal; a second modulator () with a selective input which receives at least one input signal and a second carrier signal and which outputs a second output modulated with the second carrier signal; means for combining (′) the first and second amplified output signals to provide a combined output; and wherein the first and second carrier signals are selectably coherent or incoherent with the selection of first and second coherent carrier signals causing the combined output to comprise a single carrier of higher power and the selection of incoherent carrier signals causing the combined output to comprise two distinguishable carriers of lower power.
