Radio frequency systems and methods for polar phase distortion calibration
Systems and method provided herein relate to reducing distortion of signals introduced by components on a phase path of a radio frequency system polar architecture. To reduce phase path distortion, a pre-distortion is introduced prior to a distortion caused by the components on the phase path. The pre-distortion in conjunction with the component distortion results in a transmission signal that forms its expected shape.

Synchronization method of an active load modulation clock within a transponder
A method of wireless communication includes transmitting frames from a transponder to a reader and synchronizing between a reader carrier frequency and an active load modulation (ALM) carrier frequency within each transmitted frame. Each transmitted frame includes ALM carrier bursts generated from subcarrier modulation by binary phase shift keying (BPSK) data encoding and producing signal oscillations at a transponder antenna after each ALM carrier burst generation, The synchronizing occurs at each phase change of the data encoding when no burst is generated during a half period of the subcarrier preceding the phase change and a half period of the subcarrier following this phase change. The transponder antenna has a moderate quality factor sufficient to naturally damp the signal oscillations so that the synchronizing is performed without performing any controlled signal oscillations damping.
Receiver transducer for wireless power transfer
A signal generator generates an electrical signal that is sent to an amplifier, which increases the power of the signal using power from a power source. The amplified signal is fed to a sender transducer to generate ultrasonic waves that can be focused and sent to a receiver. The receiver transducer converts the ultrasonic waves back into electrical energy and stores it in an energy storage device, such as a battery, or uses the electrical energy to power a device. In this way, a device can be remotely charged or powered without having to be tethered to an electrical outlet.

Fast frequency hopping of modulated signals
An apparatus is comprised of a processor, a fast-locking Phase-Locked Loop Waveform Generator (PLLWG), an amplifier circuit, and a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO). The processor generates data program signals to program the PLLWG and generates a trigger command signal instructing the PLLWG to generate an analog tuning signal. The PLLWG, coupled to the processor, generates the analog tuning signal based on the trigger command signal. The amplifier circuit, coupled to the PLLWG, receives the analog tuning signal, amplify the analog tuning signal, and generates a control voltage. The VCO, coupled to the amplifier circuit, receives the control voltage and amplifies the control voltage to generate an amplified Radio Frequency (RF) channel frequency signal.
