A transceiver is disclosed. The transceiver accesses a CFO (carrier frequency offset) estimate, and, for each of one or more working frequencies: transmits a transmitter RF signal at each working frequency, receives a receiver RF signal at each working frequency, and generates first I/Q measurement data based at least in part on the received receiver RF signal and the CFO estimate. In some embodiments, the transceiver receives I/Q measurement information for each working frequency. In some embodiments, the transceiver generates second I/Q measurement data based at least in part on the received I/Q measurement information. In some embodiments, the transceiver estimates a distance between the antenna and an antenna of another device based at least in part on the first and second I/Q measurement data.

A transceiver circuit includes transmit circuitry comprising a transmit baseband filter and a driver amplifier having an output coupled to a power amplifier, receive circuitry comprising a low noise amplifier and a receive baseband filter, mixer circuitry and a magnetic circuit, wherein the mixer circuitry and the magnetic circuit are coupled between the transmit baseband filter and the driver amplifier, and are further coupled between the low noise amplifier and the receive baseband filter, wherein the mixer circuitry and the magnetic circuit are shared between the transmit circuitry and the receive circuitry in a time division duplexing (TDD) communication system.

A solution for security negotiation during handover of a user equipment (UE) between different radio access technologies is provided. In the solution, the UE receives non-access stratum (NAS) security information and access stratum (AS) security information which are selected by the target system and then performs security negotiation with the target system according to the received NAS security information and AS security information. As such, the UE may obtain the key parameter information of the NAS and AS selected by a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system and perform security negotiation with the LTE system when the UE hands over from a different system, such as a Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN), to the LTE system.

A transceiver circuit is disclosed. The transceiver circuit includes an antenna, a receiver RF chain configured to receive a receiver RF signal from the antenna, a transmitter RF chain configured to transmit a transmitter RF signal to the antenna, and a controller configured to access a CFO (carrier frequency offset) estimate, and to, for each of one or more working frequencies: cause the receiver RF chain to receive a receiver RF signal from the antenna at each working frequency, generate I/Q measurement data based at least in part on the received receiver RF signal and the CFO estimate, store the I/Q measurement data, and cause the transmitter RF chain to transmit a transmitter RF signal to the antenna at each working frequency, where the controller is further configured to cause the transmitter RF chain to transmit the I/Q measurement data for each working frequency to the antenna.

Techniques and apparatus are described for reducing power consumption when performing wireless communications by dynamically changing the frequency of a local oscillator signal for a radio frequency (RF) downconversion circuit, based on signal conditions. An example method includes receiving an RF signal and downconverting the RF signal using an oscillating signal with a first frequency at a first time. The method also includes switching to downconverting the RF signal using the oscillating signal with a second frequency, based on a property associated with the RF signal at a second time. The second frequency is a subharmonic of the first frequency.
