Abstract: A system for extending the battery life of a wireless phone has four circuit s. A first circuit (20) provides a control signal (40) indicative of a mode of the wireless phone. A second circuit (20), which may be the same as the firs t circuit, provides a transmit signal (Tx). A third circuit (32) receives a biasing signal (42) and amplifies the transmit signal in preparation for transmission. A fourth circuit (12) selectively alters the power dissipated by the third circuit by selectively changing the biasing signal in response to the control signal.

Abstract: A transceiver system for interfacing digital modems with radio frequency signals including an antenna, an antenna interface system and a modem interface system separated by a cable. The antenna is placed in a location having optimal reception and in close proximity to the antenna interface system. The cable couples the antenna interface system to the modem interface system. The modem interface system includes a two state variable attenuator and an attenuation register that are configured to either reduce the strength of the receive (Rx) signal when the modems are located near a base station, or to transmit the Rx signal without attenuation when the concentrated subscriber unit is at a more distant location. The outgoing, or transmit (Tx), signal is also attenuated in a similar manner to the incoming signal. A signal loss detection system includes a detector located in the modem interface system that receives an oscillating signal transmitted from the antenna interface system through the coaxial cable. A differentiating integrator then determines the amount of signal loss experienced by this oscillating signal during transmission through the coaxial cable and attenuates the signal from the antenna interface system accordingly so the amount of loss experienced remains constant. DC power is transmitted from the modem interface system to the antenna interface system through the coaxial cable. A maximum power limiting system detects when the signal being generated exceeds the capacity of the transmit power amplifier and transmits an alarm signal to the modem interface system.

Abstract: A TRANSCEIVER SYSTEM FOR INTERFACING DIGITAL MODEMS WITH RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS IS DESCRIBED. THE TRANSCEIVER SYSTEM INCLUDES AN ANTENNA, AN ANTENNA INTERFACE SYSTEM AND MODEM INTERFACE SYSTEM SEPARATED BY A CABLE. THE ANTENNA IS PLACED IN A LOCATION HAVING OPTIMAL RECEPTION SUCH AS THE ROOF OF A BUILDING AND IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE ANTENNA INTERFACE SYSTEM. THE CABLE COUPLES THE ANTENNA INTERFACE SYSTEM TO THE MODEM INTERFACE SYSTEM WHICH IS PLACED WITHIN THE BUILDING SO THAT IT MAY BE EASILY ACCESSED FOR SERVICE AND CONFIGURATION AND SO THAT IT MAY BE COUPLED TO THE MODEMS. THE MODEM INTERFACE SYSTEM INCLUDES A TWO STATE VARIABLE ATTENUATOR AND AN ATTENUATION REGISTER THAT ARE CONFIGURED TO EITHER REDUCE THE STRENGTH OF THE RECEIVE (RX) SIGNAL WHEN THE MODEMS ARE LOCATED NEAR A BASE STATION, OR TO TRANSMIT THE RX SIGNAL WITHOUT ATTENUATION WHEN THE CONCENTRATED SUBSCRIBER UNIT IS AT A MORE DISTANT LOCATION. THE OUTGOING, OR TRANSMIT (TX), SIGNAL IS ALSO ATTENUATED IN A SIMILAR MANNER TO THE INCOMING SIGNAL. ONCE THE TRANSCEIVER SYSTEM IS PUT IN PLACE, A SIGNAL LOSS DETECTION SYSTEM FIXES THE AMOUNT OF SIGNAL LOSS EXPERIENCED BY THE INCOMING SIGNAL BEFORE BEING SUPPLIED TO THE MODEMS OVER CHANGING ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. THE SIGNAL LOSS DETECTION SYSTEMS INCLUDES A DETECTOR LOCATED IN THE MODEM INTERFACE SYSTEM THAT RECEIVES AN OSCILLATING SIGNAL TRANSMITTED FROM THE ANTENNA INTERFACE SYSTEM THROUGH THE COAXIAL CABLE. A DIFFERENTIAL INTEGRATOR THEN DETERMINES THE AMOUNT OF SIGNAL LOSS EXPERIENCED BY THIS OSCILLATING SIGNAL BY TRANSMISSION THROUGH THE COAXIAL CABLE AND ATTENUATES THE SIGNAL FROM THE ANTENNA INTERFACE SYSTEM ACCORDINGLY SO THE AMOUNT OF LOSS EXPERIENCED REMAINS CONSTANT OR IS NORMALIZED. ADDITIONALLY, DC POWER IS TRANSMITTED FROM THE MODEM INTERFACE SYSTEM TO THE ANTENNA INTERFACE SYSTEM THROUGH THE COAXIAL CABLE. THE ANTENNA INTERFACE SYSTEM ALLOWS MULTIPLE MODEMS TO GENERATE A SIGNAL USING A SINGLE POWER AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT BY INCLUDING A MAXIMUM POWER LIMITING SYSTEM THAT DETECTS WHEN THE SIGNAL BEING GENERATED EXCEEDS THE CAPACITY OF THE TRANSMIT POWER AMPLIFIER, AND THAT TRANSMIT AN ALARM SIGNAL TO THE MODEM INTERFACE SYSTEM IN RESPONSE SO THAT THE MODEM INTERFACE SYSTEM CAN SIGNAL THE REST OF THE CONCENTRATED SUBSCRIBER SYSTEM.
