Abstract: A mobile wireless terminal (MWT) includes multiple wireless modems. The multiple modems have their respective transmit outputs combined together to produce an aggregate transmit output. The multiple modems can concurrently transmit data in a reverse link direction and receive data in a forward link direction. The MWT is constrained to operate under an aggregate transmit power limit. Each of the multiple modems has an individual transmit limit related to the aggregate transmit power limit. An MWT controller adjusts the individual transmit power limits in the multiple modems based on an aggregate transmit power limit of the MWT and respective transmit power estimates from the modems, to cause each individual transmit power limit to track a corresponding individual modem transmit power.

Abstract: A mobile wireless terminal (MWT) includes multiple wireless modems. The multiple modems have their respective transmit outputs combined to produce an aggregate transmit output. The multiple modems can concurrently transmit data in a reverse link direction and receive data in a forward link direction. The MWT is constrained to operate under an aggregate transmit power limit. Each of the multiple modems has an individual transmit limit related to the aggregate transmit power limit. When operating, over-limit ones of the multiple modems are deactivated and then reactivated to keep an aggregate transmit power of all of the modems below the aggregate limit, and to maximize data through-put on the forward and reverse links.

Abstract: A mobile wireless terminal (MWT) includes multiple wireless modems. The multiple modems have their respective transmit outputs combined to produce a n aggregate transmit output. The multiple modems can concurrently transmit dat a in a reverse link direction and receive data in a forward link direction. Th e MWT is constrained to operate under an aggregate transmit power limit. Each of the multiple modems has an individual transmit limit related to the aggregat e transmit power limit. An MWT controller controls the total number of modems that transmit data at any given time, based on an average energy-per- transmitted bit, or alternatively, individual energy-per-transmitted bits of the modems.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for using multiple receive antennas (420A, 420B) in a satellite communication system (100) receiver (500, 700, 900) to mitigate the effects of specular reflection (202B, 402B) of a received signal (202A, 402A). The system includes first and second antennas (420A, 420B), for receiving a satellite communication signal along first and second direct (202A, 402A) and specular propagation paths (202B, 402B), respectively, and a digital maximal ration combiner (520) for combining the signals (202A, 202B, 402A, 402B, 420A, 420B) so as to maximize the signal-to-noise of the resultant combined signal.

Abstract: A portable phone unit for use in satellite communication systems has a vertically correcting antenna module pivotally secured to the handset for free rotation about a pivot axis. The module contains a mechanism, such as a gravitational counterweight for urging the module to pivot into a predetermined vertical orientation regardless of the handset orientation. An antenna projects from the module in a direction which is vertically upright when the module is in its predetermined vertical orientation. A mast mounted antenna module can also be used to take advantage of dissimilar antenna segment weights for multiple frequency antennas. As the handset is moved into an angular orientation, the module pivots under the weight of the counterweight, or a portion of the antenna itself, until the antenna is oriented vertically.
