A CBSR configuration can include a set of restricted beams. Each restricted beam can be constrained by a maximum gain. A set of beams including one or more restricted beams can be selected based on received reference signals. A set of precoder coefficients, each forming a beam gain, can be determined for each selected beam. A function of the set of precoder coefficients can satisfy the maximum gain constraint. The function can be proportional to an average of amplitudes of members of a subset of the set of precoder coefficients or a square root of an average of squared values of amplitudes of members of the subset. A CSI report including at least an indicator of the set of selected beams, an indicator of the set of precoding coefficients, and coefficients of the selected beams can be transmitted.

A control node for an array antenna configured so as to apply an attenuation and a phase shift to a radiofrequency signal on the basis of a control signal, to a beamforming network, to an array antenna and to a satellite includes the control node.

A repeater generates repetition signals by repeating uplink signals over a plurality of subframes; controller sets a timing for transmitting the repetition signals, based on information indicating a transmission candidate subframe for a sounding reference signal used for measuring an uplink reception quality; and a transmitter transmits the repetition signals at the set timing.

In described examples, a quadrature phase shifter includes digitally programmable phase shifter networks for generating leading and lagging output signals in quadrature. The phase shifter networks include passive components for reactively inducing phase shifts, which need not consume active power. Output currents from the transistors coupled to the phase shifter networks are substantially in quadrature and can be made further accurate by adjusted by a weight function implemented using current steering elements. Example low-loss quadrature phase shifters described herein can be functionally integrated to provide low-power, low-noise up/down mixers, vector modulators and transceiver front-ends for millimeter wavelength (mmwave) communication systems.
