    Abstract: In order to transmit a combination of modulated analog and digital signals in which a digital data signal (D 1 ) is modulated by means of singlecarrier quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) or by means of multicarrier Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) modulation and an analog signal (A 1 ) is modulated by means of single side band modulation (SSB), a singlecarrier or multicarrier quadrature amplitude base modulation of the digital data signal (D 1 ) and an SSB base modulation of the analog signal (A 1 ), is performed. Corresponding components of the modulated and optionally upsampled digital ( u m I , o m I , u m Q ,O m Q )and analog ( s m I , s m Q ) signals are added, and a carrier frequency modulation (4) of the added components is performed. In a receiver, the same carrier frequency demodulator (8) is used for the superimposed modulated analog and digital signals, which then are base band demodulated separately (5, 6, 7). The invention reduces the total computational effort for modulating the digital and analog signals by performing the carrier frequency modulation or demodulation only once.

    Abstract: There is provided mechanisms for frequency offset estimation in a wireless communication network for power grid control. The wireless communication network employs time based scheduling of packets. A method is performed by a packet receiver in the wireless communication network. The method comprises receiving a packet from a packet transmitter. The packet comprises a preamble. The preamble is composed of samples of a single OFDM symbol. The preamble has a CP defined by a repetition of samples from an end- portion of the preamble. The preamble, except for the CP, is free from any repeated sequence of samples. The method comprises determining a sequence of similarity measure values (ie. correlation) between the CP of the preamble and the end-portion of the preamble. The method comprises applying a low-pass filter to the sequence of similarity measure values, resulting in a filtered sequence of similarity measure values. The method comprises performing frequency offset estimation on the filtered sequence of similarity measure values.
