Wireless devices and systems including examples of mixing coefficient data specific to a processing mode selection
Examples described herein include systems and methods which include wireless devices and systems with examples of mixing input data with coefficient data specific to a processing mode selection. For example, a computing system with processing units may mix the input data for a transmission in a radio frequency (RF) wireless domain with the coefficient data to generate output data that is representative of the transmission being processed according to a specific processing mode selection. The processing mode selection may include a single processing mode, a multi-processing mode, or a full processing mode. The processing mode selection may be associated with an aspect of a wireless protocol. Examples of systems and methods described herein may facilitate the processing of data for 5G wireless communications in a power-efficient and time-efficient manner.
Demodulating surveillance signals
In some examples, a system includes a receiver configured to receive signals encoding first, second, and third messages in first, second, and third frequency bands. The system also includes a mixer configured to down-convert the received signals to intermediate-frequency (IF) signals based on a local oscillator signal. The system further includes at least one analog-to-digital converter configured to sample the IF signals at a sampling rate. A frequency band of the IF signals encoding the first message falls within a first Nyquist region, and a frequency band of the IF signals encoding the second message falls within a second Nyquist region. The first and second Nyquist regions are frequency ranges bounded by multiples of one-half of the sampling rate, and the second Nyquist region is different from the first Nyquist region. The system includes processing circuitry configured to determine data in the first, second, and third messages based on an output of the at least one analog-to-digital converter.
Reception apparatus, reception method, transmission apparatus, and transmission method
The present technology relates to a reception apparatus, a reception method, a transmission apparatus, and a transmission method permitting provision of an emergency warning service more suited to actual operation. Provided is a reception apparatus including a reception section and a demodulation section. The reception section receives a physical layer frame transported as a broadcast signal on the basis of monitoring information that is included in upper layer signalling, signalling in a layer higher than a physical layer, and that is used to monitor a specific service. The demodulation section demodulates physical layer signalling acquired from the physical layer frame and monitors whether emergency warning information has been transported on the basis of emergency warning notice information acquired as a result of the demodulation. In the case where the emergency warning notice information indicates that the emergency warning information has been transported, the reception apparatus starts up automatically. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a transport system for transporting a physical layer frame compliant with the DVB-T2 standard.
Discrete time superheterodyne mixer
A receiver includes one or more mixers configured to sample an input analog signal at a plurality of discrete points in time to obtain a discrete-time sampled signal based on a local oscillating signal provided by a local oscillator; and a sample reordering circuit coupled to the one or more mixers and configured to reorder a sequence of samples received from the one or more mixers.
Non-orthogonal demodulation module, touch system and non-orthogonal demodulation method
The present application provides a non-orthogonal demodulation module, receiving a received signal and the received signal is related to a summation of a plurality of transmitted signals. The plurality of transmitted signals are corresponding to a plurality of frequencies, and the plurality of transmitted signals are not orthogonal to each other. The non-orthogonal demodulation module comprises a mixing-and-integrating unit, configured to perform mixing operations and integrating operations on the received signal respectively at the plurality of frequencies, to generate a plurality of in-phase components and a plurality of quadrature components corresponding to the plurality of frequencies; and a decoding unit, configured to generate at least a decoding matrix, and compute a plurality of energies corresponding to the plurality of transmitted signals according to the at least a decoding matrix, the plurality of in-phase components and the plurality of quadrature components.
Angle of arrival carrier frequency offset correction
A system and method for detecting and compensating for carrier frequency offset is disclosed. This system compensates for CFO and calculates a corrected phase. This corrected phase may be used by, for example, an AoX algorithm, such as MUSIC, to more accurately determine the angle of arrival or angle of departure of a signal. In certain embodiments, the system oversamples the incoming signal to create a plurality of samples. The system then determines the phase of each of the plurality of samples and calculates the carrier frequency based on the time derivative of the phase. In certain embodiments, a particular portion of an incoming packet is used to determine the carrier frequency offset. In other embodiments, the system calculates the carrier frequency offset throughout an entirety of the incoming packet. Once the carrier frequency offset is determined, it can be used to adjust the received signals. These adjusted signals are then used to determine the angle of arrival or angle of departure.

Multiband aggregation receiver architecture
A system and method for frequency-agnostic multiband aggregation of received signals is disclosed for use in high capacity communication. The system includes two up-conversion mixer stages and one down-conversion mixer stage, with SAW filter banks or other band pass filter banks used to select frequency bands of interest for aggregation based on configurable multiband combination settings. The method provides for the design of optimal multiband aggregation configuration settings.
Downlink subframe shortening in time-division duplex (TDD) systems
A guard period for switching between uplink and downlink subframes is created by shortening a downlink subframe, i.e., by not transmitting during one or more symbol intervals at the end of the subframe. A grant message includes signaling indicating when a shortened subframe is being transmitted. An example method is implemented in a receiving node configured to receive data from a transmitting node in subframes having a predetermined number of symbol intervals. In an LTE system, this receiving node may be a UE, and the subframes are downlink subframes. This example method includes determining that a received subframe is to be shortened, relative to the predetermined number of symbol intervals and, in response to this determination, disregarding a last part of the received subframe by disregarding one or more symbols at the end of the received subframe when processing the received subframe.
