A method includes defining a Center-of-Radiation Reference for a device under test, the CORR indicating a reference origin of an electromagnetic wave pattern formable with the DUT; determining a 3-dimensional orientation information with respect to the CORR, the 3-dimensional orientation information indicating a direction of the electromagnetic wave pattern; and providing the CORR and the 3-dimensional orientation information to a measurement system.

Methods and measurement systems for precisely evaluating a device under test

An apparatus comprises an antenna array comprising a plurality of antennas. The apparatus comprises a communication interface for receiving a control signal. The apparatus is configured to form a first radio frequency beam in accordance with a predetermined test case independent from the control signal using the antenna array. The apparatus is configured to form a second radio frequency beam that is different from the predetermined test case responsive to instructions contained in the control signal.

Apparatus, measurement system for testing an apparatus and methods for operating the same

An apparatus including a processor unit configured to provide a first high-definition map, a sensor unit configured for providing sensor data representing an environmental condition in a periphery of the apparatus and a receiver unit configured to receive data representing a second high-definition map. The processor unit is configured to fuse the second high-definition map and the sensor data so as to provide the first high-definition map. The apparatus further includes a transmitter unit configured for transmitting a result of fusing the second high-definition map and the sensor data, and includes a command generator unit configured to generate a command signal representing a vehicle control command for a vehicle carrying the apparatus based on the first high-definition map.

Generation and use of HD maps

Embodiments provide an unmanned aerial vehicle comprising a receiver and a position determiner. The receiver is configured to receive two periodic wideband signals transmitted from two spaced apart base stations of a navigation system for unmanned aerial vehicles, wherein the two periodic wideband signals are time-synchronized. The position determiner is configured to determine a position of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the two base stations based on a difference between reception times of the two periodic wideband signals and based on reception intensities of the two periodic wideband signals.

Positioning of unmanned aerial vehicles using millimeter-wave beam infrastructure

Among network devices for use within a wireless communication network, a transmitting network device is configured to transmit to a receiving network device via a control channel one or more control signals for configuring the receiving network device for a characterization of at least one of the transmitting network device and the receiving network device and/or for a characterization of one or more communication channels between the transmitting network device and the receiving network device.
