Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may support multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) operation in dual SIM dual active (DSDA) deployments. In some aspects, the UE may receive, via an antenna of the UE, a first signal associated with a first network subscription on a first receive path of the antenna and a second signal associated with a second network subscription on a second receive path of the antenna. The UE may determine a signal strength for each of the first signal and the second signal, determine a first gain for the first receive path and a gain for a low noise amplifier (LNA) coupled with the antenna based on the signal strength of the first signal, and determine a gain for the second receive path based on the signal strength of the second signal and the gain of the LNA.

Methods and systems for a multi gain LNA architecture achieving minimum phase discontinuity between all the different active and passive gain modes that uses different LNA configurations and settings for single and multi-stage LNAs by a configurable combined output matching and phase adjusting circuitry.

A method includes compressing the dynamic range of the target detection signal so as to correspond to the desired dynamic range (60) of the audio signal (81) that is generated in order to acoustically render this detection signal to the user, so that the quietest signals are audible, the loudest signals do not cause hearing damage for the user, and that the sound volume is able to be perceived gradually for the intermediate-level signals. This avoids losing variations in the detection signal that are below the audibility threshold (63) and clipping them above a maximum hearing comfort threshold (64) in the corresponding audio signal (71) that would be generated according to the prior art.

A feedforward echo cancellation device includes: a first impedance circuit for responding to a transmission current to output a first current to a node; an echo cancellation current generating circuit for drawing an echo cancellation current from the node; a circuit module that is coupled to the echo cancellation current generating circuit and the node has a first impedance value adjusted based on a system convergence index of a communication device, where the first impedance value is used to determine a gain of a programmable gain amplifier in the communication device; and a second impedance circuit for responding to the transmission current to output a second current to the node, where a second impedance value of the second impedance circuit is adjusted based on the first impedance value of the circuit module accordingly. Specifically, the node is coupled to an input terminal of the programmable gain amplifier.

A system, in an active reflector device, adjusts a first amplification gain of each of a plurality of radio frequency (RF) signals received at a receiver front-end from a first equipment via a first radio path of an NLOS radio path. A first phase shift is performed on each of the plurality of RF signals with the adjusted first amplification gain. A combination of the plurality of first phase-shifted RF signals is split at a transmitter front-end. A second phase shift on each of the split first plurality of first phase-shifted RF signals is performed. The plurality of RF signals as a directed beam is transmitted to a second equipment via a second radio path of the NLOS radio path.

A time to digital converter has a counter, a first phase difference detector, a first capacitor, a second capacitor having capacitance N times a capacitance of the first capacitor, a comparator to compare a charge voltage of the first capacitor with a charge voltage of the second capacitor, a first charge controller, a first phase difference arithmetic unit, a second phase difference detector, a second charge controller, a second phase difference arithmetic unit to operate the phase difference between the first signal and the second signal, and a third phase difference arithmetic unit to detect a fractional phase difference between the first signal and the second signal. The first phase difference arithmetic unit operates the phase difference between the first signal and the second signal, based on a reference phase, when the counter suspends a measurement operation.

A transimpedance amplifier circuit (1) includes an amplifier (22) that amplifies a received signal, an automatic gain control (AGC) circuit (2) that controls the amplification gain of the amplifier by a first time constant in accordance with the level of the received signal, and a first selection circuit (25) that selects the first time constant from a plurality of predetermined values. This can simultaneously implement a short time constant of an AGC function necessary to instantaneously respond to a burst signal and a long time constant of the AGC function necessary to obtain a satisfactory bit error rate (BER) characteristic in a continuous signal by an inexpensive and compact circuit arrangement.

According to one mode of the inventive concept, an amplification device includes a first amplifier configured to amplify an input multi-band signal to a first level, a separating unit configured to separate the multi-band signal having the first level into a first band signal and a second band signal, and a second amplifier configured to amplify the second band signal to a second level.

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described herein for improved processing audio in a video stream. A system may split audio in a frame of video content into multiple bands based on their audio levels. The system may then dynamically compress and dynamically normalize the audio level in each band. When dynamically compressing the bands, the system may determine, based on stored information, what audio level range is acceptable for an end user and may smooth and maintain the ranges of the audio to be within the acceptable range. The system may include the dynamically normalized and dynamically compressed frames as a second audio track in the video content. A computing device receiving the video content may select the second audio track during playback. If an end user selects the second audio track, the video is delivered with the modified sound of the second audio track.

A low noise amplifying system with adjustable gain. The low noise amplifier includes a plurality of gain stages, including a first stage and a last stage each having fixed gain, and an intermediate stage having adjustable gain. The intermediate stage is an inverting gain stage that includes a field effect transistor connected from the output to the input, to provide negative feedback, reducing the gain as a control voltage (applied to the gate of the field effect transistor) is adjusted to decrease the channel resistance of the field effect transistor. A control circuit measures the input and output signal power of the amplifying system and adjusts the gain of one or more intermediate stages to trade off linearity against noise figure.
