Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sende- und Empfangsgerät für Hochfrequenzstrahlung, das mit einer Antenneneinrichtung ausgestattet ist, die eine gerichtete, trägheitslos veränderbare Strahlungscharakteristik aufweist. Das Gerät ist weiterhin mit einer Einrichtung ausgestattet, die eine automatische, trägheitslose Ausrichtung der Strahlungscharakteristik in Richtung eines zweiten Sende-/Empfangsgerätes (Gegenstation) in Echtzeit vornimmt. Dazu ist das erfindungsgemäße Sende- und Empfangsgerät mit Mitteln zur Bestimmung der aktuellen räumlichen Position ausgestattet, die geeignet sind, bei einer Veränderung der räumlichen Lage des Gerätes die Ausrichtung der Strahlungscharakterisistik auf der Grundlage der berechneten aktuellen Lage vorzunehmen.The invention relates to a transmitting and receiving device for high-frequency radiation, equipped with an antenna device is a directed, inertia changeable Has radiation characteristics. The device is still equipped with a device that automatically, inertial alignment of the radiation characteristics in Direction of a second transceiver (remote station) in real time. For this purpose, the transmission and Receiving device with means for determining the current spatial position that are suitable at a change in the spatial position of the device Alignment of the radiation characteristics on the basis the calculated current situation.

Durch die Bündelung und Ausrichtung der Sendekeule in Richtung des zweiten Gerätes wird die benötigte Sendeleistung bei unveränderter Feldstärke am Empfänger im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Geräten deutlich gesenkt. Dies führt gerade bei Batterie- oder Akku-betriebenen Geräten zu einer deutlichen Energieersparnis und damit zu einer Erhöhung der Betriebsdauer des Gerätes.
Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform enthält das Sende-/Empfangsgerät einen oder mehrere Beschleunigungssensoren, mit denen zu jedem Zeitpunkt die aktuelle räumliche Lage des Gerätes in Bezug auf eine Referenzachse berechnet wird. Bei einer Veränderung der räumlichen Lage des Gerätes wird die Ausrichtung der Strahlungscharakteristik automatisch auf der Grundlage dieser berechneten aktuellen Lage angepaßt.

Figure 00000001
By bundling and aligning the transmitter lobe in the direction of the second device, the required transmission power is significantly reduced compared to conventional devices with unchanged field strength at the receiver. This leads to significant energy savings and thus to an increase in the operating time of the device, particularly in the case of battery-operated or battery-operated devices.
In an advantageous embodiment, the transceiver contains one or more acceleration sensors with which the current spatial position of the device with respect to a reference axis is calculated at all times. If the spatial position of the device changes, the alignment of the radiation characteristics is automatically adjusted on the basis of this calculated current position.
