Simulation Model Fitting for Radio Frequency Matching-Network Optimization
This document describes systems and techniques to perform simulation model fitting for radio frequency (RF) matching-network optimization. Using a simulation tool, a simulation model of the RF interface circuitry is generated with matching component values. Port impedances of the simulation model are adjusted to match at least one or more simulated scattering parameters to at least one or more actual scattering parameter of a physical prototype of the RF interface circuitry assembled with the same matching component values. An optimal load-pull location for the RF interface circuitry is also determined. The simulation model is then used to identify a matching pair that corresponds to the optimal load-pull location. In this way, the described systems and techniques can reduce engineering time and improve the accuracy of the tuning process.
RADIO ENVIRONMENT ESTIMATION METHOD AND RADIO ENVIRONMENT ESTIMATION APPARATUS
A synthetic reception strength value in a case of synthesizing indirect waves of radio waves generated due to an obstruction is calculated for each piece of receive antenna coordinate information in consideration of a phase of each indirect wave. Relation information indicating relation between input information and teaching information is generated. The input information is the synthetic reception strength value for each piece of the receive antenna coordinate information corresponding to transmit antenna coordinate information. The teaching information is information indicating a reception state of the radio waves being calculated using a method of actually measuring the radio waves output by the transmit antenna at a position of a receive antenna or a method other than the method of the actual measurement. Strength of the radio waves is estimated by calculating the information indicating the reception state of the radio waves by using the transmit antenna coordinate information for evaluation and the generated relation information.
PROCESSING OF COMMUNICATIONS SIGNALS USING MACHINE LEARNING
One or more processors control processing of radio frequency (RF) signals using a machine-learning network. The one or more processors receive as input, to a radio communications apparatus, a first representation of an RF signal, which is processed using one or more radio stages, providing a second representation of the RF signal. Observations about, and metrics of, the second representation of the RF signal are obtained. Past observations and metrics are accessed from storage. Using the observations, metrics and past observations and metrics, parameters of a machine-learning network, which implements policies to process RF signals, are adjusted by controlling the radio stages. In response to the adjustments, actions performed by one or more controllers of the radio stages are updated. A representation of a subsequent input RF signal is processed using the radio stages that are controlled based on actions including the updated one or more actions.
Vegetation growth detection via radio propagation
A method and method to detect vegetation growth into a wireless signal path. Signal strength indicators for a signal that is transmitted from a transmitter at a second location are received from a receiver at a first location. The signal strength indicators are determined to be consistent with a progression of a decrease in received signal strength corresponding to a growth of vegetation growing into a wireless signal path between the first location and the second location. A recent signal strength indicator is determined to be below a threshold from a baseline received signal strength, and a notification of likely vegetation encroachment into the wireless signal path is provided based on the recent signal strength indicator being below the threshold and determining that the signal strength indicators are consistent with a progression of a decrease in signal strength corresponding to a growth of vegetation.
