Systems and methods of the present disclosure include controlling directions of communications including a processor to obtain performance data of an integrated roofing accessory installed on a roof, the integrated roofing accessory including an antenna and a transceiver to enable fifth generation cellular networking (5G) protocol communication with a 5G-enabled device, and an adjustable attachment to orient or position the antenna. The performance data is indicative of 5G signal performance between the integrated roofing accessory and the 5G-enabled device. A signal performance affecting condition is determined using the performance data, where the signal performance affecting condition is a reduced signal performance of a 5G signal beam of the antenna. An improved orientation or an improved position of the antenna is determined to remedy the signal performance affecting condition. The adjustable attachment is controlled to physically adjust he orientation of the position to achieve the improved orientation or position.

AUTOMATIC DEVICE ORIENTATION

An electronic device determines a position of a communicaiton hub of a wireless network. In response to determining a position of a communication hub of a wireless communication network, the electronic device may operate one or more actuators to move the device to adjust the orientation of the device relative to the communication hub. As such, the mobile communicating device may adjust the orientation of the device relative to the communication hub to provide more reliable and/or more efficient communication of data.

COMMUNICATION DEVICE

A wireless tag that is not guaranteed to be located within a predetermined area is prevented from being read as a valid wireless tag. A communication device includes: an antenna; a reference tag; a reception unit; and a determination unit. The reception unit uses the antenna to sequentially receive signals wirelessly transmitted from a reference tag whose relative position to the antenna is known and a reading target tag different from the reference tag. The determination unit determines that the signal transmitted from the reading target tag and received by the reception unit is invalid based on a phase of the signal transmitted from the reference tag and received by the reception unit.

Method and System for Mast Sway Compensation
20230075873 · 2023-03-09 ·

A method for compensating a movement of an antenna structure having a directive antenna mounted thereto is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining sensor data from a motion sensor, where the sensor data is indicative of the movement of the antenna structure relative to a reference orientation. Moreover, the motion sensor is associated with a set of calibration parameters such that when applied to the obtained sensor data, calibrated sensor data is formed. Further, the method comprises generating a compensation signal at an output for controlling a beam direction of the directive antenna based on the formed calibrated sensor data such that the beam direction is an intended direction of the directive antenna and such that the (unwanted) movement of the antenna structure is compensated. The method further comprises re-calibrating the motion sensor in order to generate a set of calibration coefficients upon either one of an expiry of a predefined time period, a counter reaching a counter threshold, or upon a measured antenna parameter or signal parameter diverging from a parameter range. Once, one of these conditions are fulfilled, the re-calibration is performed by obtaining a received signal strength indication (RSSI) while the beam direction is controlled based on the generated compensation signal, generating the set of calibration coefficients based on the obtained RSSI, and updating the set of calibration parameters for the motion sensor with the determined set of calibration coefficients.
