Abstract: A method for distributed carrier aggregation on unlicensed bands is described. The method includes tuning an antenna of a user equipment to a first carrier (710). The method includes transmitting, from an access point on a first carrier, information regarding a second carrier (720). The method also includes receiving, on the first carrier via the antenna, the information regarding the second carrier (730). The first carrier and the second carrier are in an unlicensed band. The method includes retuning the antenna to the second carrier (740) and communicating data on the second carrier via the antenna (750). A maximum transmission power for the second carrier is based at least in part on a bandwidth of the second carrier. The information may comprise cross-scheduling information, or configuration data, for the second carrier. The configuration data may comprise an indication of the bandwidth of the second carrier or switching data indicating when to tune the antenna to the first carrier and when to tune the antenna to the second carrier. The switching data may comprise a switching periodicity or a switching bitmap. The first carrier may a core carrier and the second carrier may be a secondary cell carrier. The method may also comprise switching the core carrier from the first carrier to a third carrier. The maximum transmission power may be 10dBm.

Title: Closed loop ion mobility separation device
Inventor: GILES KEVIN
IPC: G01N27/62
Filed: 2012-12-21
Abstract: An ion mobility separator 4 and a method of separating ions according to their ion mobility are disclosed. An RF ion guide is provided having a plurality of electrodes 8 that are arranged to form an ion guiding path that extends in a closed loop. RF voltages are supplied to at least some of the electrodes 8 in order to confine ions within said ion guiding path.

Title: A push-pull RF power amplifier with capacitive gate-drain cross-coupling
Inventor: MANETAKIS KONSTANTINOS
IPC: H03F1/32
Filed: 2013-07-31
Abstract: Gate-to-drain cross-coupling capacitors 50 and 52 are added to the common-source stage of a cascode RF amplifier in order to reduce the variation of the stages input capacitance as a function of the signal swing. AM-PM distortion at higher signal levels may be reduced by counteracting the phase lag (602, figure 6) in the MOS transistors M11 and M12 with a phase lead (600, figure 6) in the driver stage. The leading phase characteristic of the driver stage is obtained by controlling the variable capacitor 18 (such as a CDAC (capacitor digital-to-analogue converter)) so that the LC resonant frequency of the driver stage is slightly below the signal frequency. The bias currents 20 and 24 respectively increase and decrease with temperature so that the gain and the drain voltage of the devices M11 and M12 do not vary much over the working temperature range.
