RECIPROCITY BASED CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION ACQUISITION FOR FREQUENCY DIVISION DUPLEX SYSTEM
20220311493 · 2022-09-29 ·

Various embodiments disclosed herein provide for a reciprocity based channel state information acquisition scheme for frequency division duplex wireless communications systems. By converting channel state information from a traditional frequency-time domain to a Delay-Doppler domain, the channel state information feedback overhead can be reduced since the multi-path of radio propagation is reciprocal in terms of each ray and each cluster of antenna elements. Since the surrounding objects create the same multipath fading for both uplink and downlink transmissions, modeling the channel state information in the Delay-Doppler domain, and adjusting the sign of the Doppler value (negative/positive) can account for the multipath characteristics in both uplink and downlink.

Continuous time linear equalizer that uses cross-coupled cascodes and inductive peaking

The disclosed embodiments relate to the design of an equalizer that uses both cross-coupled cascodes and inductive peaking to reduce distortion in a signal received from a communication channel by attenuating lower frequencies and amplifying higher frequencies. At lower frequencies, when the effects of inductive impedance within the equalizer are negligible, the equalizer essentially functions as a traditional cascode amplifier that presents high gain. At higher frequencies, the increases in inductive impedances within the equalizer act to boost a gain of the equalizer.
