It is presented an amplifier device comprising: a primary amplifier arranged to receive at least part of an input signal; a secondary amplifier arranged to receive at least part of the input signal; a first directional coupler device, wherein one input of the first directional coupler device is connected to the primary amplifier and a second input of the first directional coupler device is connected to the secondary amplifier; and a first multiband termination device arranged to reflect signals with a predetermined reflection phase in at least two frequency bands. One output of the first directional coupler device is a main output of the amplifier device and a second output of the first directional coupler device is connected to the first multiband termination device. A corresponding radio base station and mobile communication terminal are also presented.

Harmonic control apparatus of radio frequency (RF) devices are provided including an active device. In particular, the harmonic control apparatus includes a complementary open-loop resonator that is integrated in a conducting pattern of the harmonic control apparatus, to produce a shunt resonator that is configured to act as a short-circuit termination on at least one tuned frequency.

Harmonic control apparatus and related radio frequency devices and base stations

The present invention relates to a device for adjusting the beam direction of an antenna. The device has a source connection terminal to be connected to a signal source and at least two feed connection terminals to be connected to antenna element feed points. A feed line structure is elongated in a main direction at a distance from and in parallel to a fixed ground plane on at least one side of said feed line structure, wherein a movable dielectric element is located between said feed line structure and said ground plane so as to change the signal phase of signal components being transferred between said source connection terminal and the respective feed connection terminals. The device includes means for allowing said ground plane to be positioned relatively close to said feed line structure without risking accidental contact between said feed line structure and said ground plane.

Beam adjusting device

The present invention relates to a device for adjusting the beam direction of a beam radiated from a stationary array of antenna elements. Antenna element feed points are coupled to a common source via a feed line structure having a source connection and feed connection terminals to be connected to the antenna element feed points, the feed line structure being at a distance from and in parallel to a fixed ground plane. A movable element is located adjacent to the feed line structure to change the signal phase of signal components being transferred between the source connection and the respective feed connection terminals. The movable element is movable for effecting a phase shift of the signal components to adjust the beam direction. The device is provided with a detection arrangement for detecting the absolute position of the movable element.
