PROCESSING METHOD FOR A RADIO SIGNAL DISTURBED BY A RADAR SIGNAL
The present description concerns a method of processing by a radio transmitter/receiver (12) of a radio signal (SR) comprising a telecommunications signal disturbed by pulses of a radar signal, the method comprising the steps of: estimating the instantaneous power of the pulses, estimating the ratio of the average power of the telecommunications signal to the instantaneous power of the radar pulses, and modifying the radio signal at the locations of the radar pulses when said ratio is smaller than a threshold.

Background Noise Recorder
An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with a transmit antenna that transmits signals and a receive antenna that receives reflected signals. The wireless circuitry may detect a range between the device and an external object based on the transmitted signals and the reflected signals. When the range exceeds a first threshold, the wireless circuitry may use the transmitted signals and received signals to record background noise. When the range is less than a second threshold value, the wireless circuitry may detect the range based on the reflected signals and the recorded background noise. This may allow the range to be accurately measured within an ultra-short range domain even when the device is placed in different device cases, placed on different surfaces, etc.
Techniques For Reducing Filter Distortion In Data Using Emphasis
An integrated circuit includes a filter circuit and a computation circuit that applies emphasis to a data stream in a frequency domain to reduce distortion to the data stream caused by the filter circuit.

PHASE NOISE COMPENSATION IN A WIRELESS SYSTEM
According to one configuration, a system includes a first wireless station in communication with a second wireless station. A phase noise predictor model such as associated with the first wireless station receives phase noise information. The phase noise information captures an estimate of: i) first phase noise associated with a first wireless station, and ii) second phase noise associated with a second wireless station. Based on the received phase noise information, the predictor produces phase noise adjustment information. The predictor applies the phase noise adjustment information to adjust (compensate) a signal of the first wireless station. Adjustment of the signal results in phase noise adjustment with respect to both the first phase noise associated with the first wireless station and the second phase noise associated with the second wireless station.
