This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for configuring components of transmission circuitry. In one aspect, a first set of linear kernels and a first set of nonlinear kernels associated with a composite digital pre-distortion (DPD) kernel design is determined based on a first iteration of a DPD kernel analysis process. The first set of linear kernels is separated from the first set of nonlinear kernels according to a first iteration of a linear filter separation process. A final set of linear kernels and a final set of nonlinear kernels are determined based on one or more additional iterations of the DPD kernel analysis process and the linear filter separation process. A pre-DPD filter for the transmission circuitry is configured using a final set of filter coefficients derived based on the final set of linear kernels.

Differing from the fact that the amount of register units and adder units arranged in conventional moving average filter must be increased for processing more number of reference input signals, the present invention particularly discloses a moving average low-pass filtering device. The moving average low-pass filtering device comprises a register unit and a filtering and processing unit, and is able to use identical circuit architecture to successfully treat reference input signals with a filtering process even if the number of the reference input signals is alternatively increased. Moreover, after finishing a verification experiment by a simulator, simulation results have proved that, this novel moving average low-pass filtering device still can use identical circuit architecture to complete the filtering process under nearly the same calculation efficiency even though the number of the reference input signals is alternatively increased.

A radio communication receiver and a method performed by the radio communication receiver for configuring a Notch filter of the radio communication receiver. The method comprises retrieving stored and previously determined filter coefficients from a set of filter coefficients, where the retrieved filter coefficients constitute a fraction of the total number of filter coefficients; and setting the rest of the filter coefficients to one.

A signal processing arrangement generates electrical stimulation signals to electrode contacts in an implanted cochlear implant array. An input sound signal is processed to generate band pass signals that each represent an associated band of audio frequencies. A spectrogram representative of frequency spectrum present in the input sound signal is generated. A characteristic envelope signal is produced for each band pass signal based on its amplitude. An active contour model is applied to estimate dominant frequencies present in the spectrogram, and the estimate is used to generate stimulation timing signals for the input sound signal. The electrode stimulation signals are produced for each electrode contact based on the envelope signals and the stimulation timing signals.
