| 20120183026 | Crosstalk Limitation between Modems - A device for providing access to a data communication network for modems is connected to the modems via a set of communication lines. The modems include a first group supporting vectoring and a second group not supporting vectoring. The device investigates the expected value of an element in a synchronization interval to be received by a modem in the second group, investigates the value of an element of at least one data sequence assigned to the communication line of this modem, compares the values, selects the element of the investigated data sequence for transmission if the element value corresponds to the expected value and transmits the selected element and corresponding elements of a number of pilot sequences assigned to the first group of modems via the set of communication lines. | 07-19-2012 |

| 20130142319 | Method In A Communication System - A method and arrangement are disclosed in a Vector Control Entity for enabling a fair bit rate distribution among lines of similar priority in a vectoring group, when applying partial vectoring in a DSL communication system. The method comprises calculating a rate balancing metric, RBM, for each line i within a priority group A, indicative of the ratio between the bit rate of a line i with a current vectoring resource allocation, and the estimated bit rate of line i assuming approximately no crosstalk within the vectoring group. The method further comprises allocating partial-vectoring resources to the line/s within the group A, based on the calculated RBMs, such as to reduce the difference in RBM between the lines. The method further comprises calculating an updated RBM for any line within the group A subjected to changes in vectoring resource allocation. The method may be iterated until certain criteria are fulfilled. The arrangement is adapted to enable the performance of the above described method. | 06-06-2013 |
| 20130272110 | Method for Handling Transmission Errors On a Telecommunications Transmission Line - When data retransmission is used to handle errors caused by impulse noise, buffer memory requirements may be reduced and/or data rate increased by detecting impulse noise at the transmitting equipment and initiating retransmission in response to such detection rather than waiting for a retransmission indication from the receiving end. The decision to retransmit may be made dependent on the strength or other properties of the detected noise burst. The decision criterion may be made adaptive by correlating noise burst properties with received retransmission indications or the absence thereof. | 10-17-2013 |
| 20140161163 | METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT IN A DSL VECTORING SYSTEM - Method and arrangement in a Vectoring Control Entity, VCE, for handling disorderly events in a Digital Subscriber Line, DSL, system. The method involves a number of actions, to be performed when a disorderly event occurs on a line m in a vectored group of DSL lines, and the transmission on line m is continued. The method comprises obtaining error samples from Customer Premises Equipments, CPEs, connected to other lines in the vectored group of DSL lines. The method further comprises—calculating an estimate of the channel coefficients changed due to the disorderly event, based on the error samples, thus providing a partial channel estimate. Further, the method comprises—modifying a downstream precoder, at least partly based on the partial channel estimate, such that retraining of the other lines in the vectored group due to the disorderly event is avoided. | 06-12-2014 |
| 20140169489 | Method for Saving Power in a Telecommunications System - In a vectoring-capable DSL system, power can be saved by a low power mode wherein data transmission is reduced or halted, but synch symbols continue to be transmitted, so that estimation of crosstalk coefficients may continue during the low power mode. When crosstalk coefficient estimates are up to date, a line may exit low power mode without causing problematic changes of crosstalk noise in other lines, since the vectoring functionality will eliminate or reduce the crosstalk. | 06-19-2014 |

The antenna arrangement comprises an antenna mounting unit and an active antenna element. The antenna mounting unit is arranged with fastening means from which the active antenna element is detachable. Further, the antenna mounting unit is arranged with a signalling interface via which signals are arranged to be transferred between the active antenna element and a remotely located base station with which the antenna arrangement communicates. Moreover, the antenna mounting unit is arranged with an interface via which the active antenna element is powered. | 08-28-2014 |
| 20140269245 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INITIATING BI-DIRECTIONAL COMMUNICATION IN A TIME-DIVISION DUPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - The present invention relates to a method and a system for initiating bi-directional communication in a time-division duplex (TDD) communication system between a customer premises equipment (CPE) modem, such as a DSL modem, and an operator modem, such as a DSLAM. The invention is characterized in that the transmission of the CPE modem is aligned with the time-division duplex timing structure present in received crosstalk noise when transmitting initiation signals, so-called handshake tones. | 09-18-2014 |

The device comprises a transmitter and a receiver and it has a normal mode of TDD communication. In these devices, Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) is used as line measurement. It has a number of drawbacks, and for overcoming said drawbacks, Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) measurement techniques adapted for TDD devices are suggested. | 10-16-2014 |
| 20140348074 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING A SIGNAL PATH OF A RADIO COMMUNICATION - A method and a remote digital unit in a central office of a core network, for handling a radio communication for a mobile terminal being connected to an access point at a local site. The remote digital unit determines that the mobile terminal can be served locally by a local digital unit connected to a local signal switching unit at the local site, and instructs the local digital unit to locally process signals to or from the mobile terminal in the communication. The remote digital unit further schedules the signals over a radio interface between the mobile terminal and the access point, and sends updated scheduling information to the local digital unit to indicate the scheduling, thereby enabling the local digital unit to handle the radio communication according to the updated scheduling information. In this way, the functionality of a base station is divided into a relatively simple digital unit and switching function at the local site and a more advanced digital unit with scheduling function at the central office, such that the costs for implementing radio access at a local site are low and tromboning of communicated signals over the core network can be avoided. | 11-27-2014 |
