A signal detector device and method includes a quadrature demodulator configured to receive an input signal, a first reference signal, and a second reference signal in quadrature with the first reference signal, the quadrature demodulator further configured to produce a plurality of output signals from the input signal and the first and the second reference signal, the plurality of output signals indicating the amplitude and phase of the input signal, and one or more inverting circuits, the inverting circuits having a first and a second programmable output polarity, the plurality of output signals being output by the quadrature demodulator when the inverting circuits are set to the first programmable output polarity, the plurality of output signals being inverted and output by the quadrature demodulator when the inverting circuits are set to the second programmable output polarity

A receiving device may identify a mutual information associated with a code block. The receiving device may identify whether the code block is decodable based on the mutual information. The receiving device may skip decoding the code block if the code block is identified as being not decodable. The receiving device may decode the code block if the code block is identified as being decodable. The code block may be identified as being not decodable if the mutual information is less than a second threshold. The code block may be identified as being decodable if the mutual information is greater than the second threshold. The receiving device may identify the second threshold based on an MCS associated with the code block or a code block length of the code block.

The invention relates to a method, systems, computer program, and computer-readable medium for reducing artefacts (speckling) which may appear to be noise/errors in a representation of an electrical signal. An Eye Pattern representation of a digital bit stream signal can be used for determining a range of signal quality characteristics, and can be generated from measurements of the proportion of ones and zeroes detected when sampling the signal at both at a reference data sampling position within a bit period and at a range of offset sampling positions. However, the speckling noise which typically exists in such an Eye Pattern reduces the confidence that can be placed in values for different signal characteristics which may be determined from the Eye Pattern. While speckling may be reduced by increasing the sampling frequency used to sample the signal, the present invention reduces speckling by using data gathered at the reference data sampling point to correct data gathered at each of the offset sampling positions. Thereby, the invention reduces the number of samples needed in order to reduce speckling to a particular level.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit an indication of a multi-level coding (MLC) capability for uplink transmissions. The UE may receive a configuration of a selected MLC scheme associated with an uplink transmission, wherein the configuration of the selected MLC scheme is based at least in part on the indication of the MLC capability for the uplink transmissions. Numerous other aspects are described.
