An apparatus and method for wireless communication, and a method of fabricating the apparatus. The apparatus comprises two or more transceiver array groups, each transceiver array group comprising one or more radio frequency, RF, circuits, and one or more RF front end, RF FE, circuits; wherein the transceiver array groups are configured to operate at different frequencies; wherein the transceiver array groups are configured to be connected to one corresponding digital baseband processor; and wherein the transceiver array groups comprise at least one first transceiver array group configured to operate at cm wavelength or larger. Preferably, the transceiver array groups comprise at least one second transceiver array group configured to operate at mm wavelength.

Approaches provide for determining spectral information for a communications signal, such as a wideband communications signal. For example, a communications signal (e.g., a wideband signal) is received at a set of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The output of the ADCs is divided into a set of segments. A center frequency for each segment is determined based on the segment bandwidth and a number of segments in the set. The segments can be filtered, buffered, and analyzed using at least one digital signal processing technique (e.g., Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) technique to generate a representation of the segments in the frequency domain. Thereafter, the spectrum of frequency components (i.e., the frequency-domain representation) of the segments can be used to determine the power spectral density of the communications signal for different resolutions based on a resolution mode of the system or other criteria of the system.

Embodiments of the invention include a wakeup receiver (WRX) featuring a charge-domain analog front end (AFE) with parallel radio frequency (RF) rectifier, charge-transfer summation amplifier (CTSA), and successive approximation analog-to-digital converter (SAR ADC) stages. The WRX operates at very low power and exhibits above-average sensitivity, random pulsed interferer rejections, and yield over process.

Methods, devices, and systems for retransmission of wake-up signals from a first station to a second station over a wireless network are disclosed. In some aspects, a wake-up signal is encoded for transmission to the second station. While the first station is waiting for an acknowledgment of the wake-up signal from the second station, the second station may retransmit the wake up signal and/or encode a packet for transmission to a third station. In some aspects, whether the wake-up signal is retransmitted is based in part, on at least one of whether a number of timeout events for wake-up signals transmitted to the second station exceeds a maximum timeouts threshold, whether a number of wake-up signals transmitted to the second station exceeds a maximum wake-up signals threshold; or whether a maximum predetermined elapsed time since a first wake-up signal was transmitted to the second station is exceeded.
