Antenna isolation enhancement
Techniques are disclosed for providing isolation between a pair of partially overlapping antennas. An example electronic device includes a first antenna coupled to a first transceiver through a first signal path comprising a first feed, and a second antenna coupled to a second transceiver through a second signal path comprising a second feed. The first antenna and second antenna partially overlap. The example electronic device also includes compensation circuitry coupled to the first signal path and the second signal path and configured to generate a compensation signal that provides analog cancellation of an interference signal received at the second antenna from the first antenna.

Method for checking the association of radio nodes and of objects with a radio environment
A method for checking the association of radio nodes and objects to a radio environment with a radio node set having at least three radio nodes spaced apart from one another, each with a radio interface and its separate timer, wherein at least two radio nodes are reference radio nodes with known distances from one another and at least one radio node is a test radio node, the association of which with the radio environment of the reference radio node is checked.
