The disclosed systems, structures, and methods are directed to an orbital angular momentum (OAM) receiver. The OAM receiver includes at least two receiver antenna elements to receive radiated OAM signal beams containing superposed order modes and to generate antenna element output signals based on the received OAM signal beams. The receiver antenna elements are positioned tangentially along a circular locus and spatially separated by a distance. A variable ratio combining unit operates to switch between the antenna output signals based on a high-rate periodic waveform that emulates unidirectional movement by the antenna elements to produce a pseudo-Doppler frequency shift. The variable ratio combining unit further modulates the antenna output signals based on the periodic waveform to impart a fractional pseudo-Doppler shift to each OAM mode and combines the modulated antenna element output signals in accordance with the fractional pseudo-Doppler shift to facilitate separation of the OAM modes.

A pseudo low intermediate frequency (IF) configuration is provided for a receiver having a zero IF radio architecture dedicated for radar detection, in order to reduce false radar detection. Energy from local oscillator leakage is shifted away from DC. After filtering out of the desired sub-channel, the local oscillator leakage energy is suppressed, reducing false radar detection.

The present disclosure is directed to systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing continuous or periodic link training. Existing link training protocols generally perform link training only once during startup or initialization of a link and, as a result, are limited in their applications. After link training is performed and Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) data link layer and other high-layer data is transmitted across the link, no further link training is performed using these existing link training protocols. However, parameters of the link may change over time after link training is performed, such as temperature of the link and voltage levels of signals transmitted over the link by the transmitter of the transmitter-receiver pair.

Embodiments may relate to a communications module comprising with a dispersion compensation module communicatively coupled between a baseband module and a radio frequency (RF) module. The dispersion compensation module may be configured to process a data signal at an intermediate frequency that is between a baseband frequency and a RF frequency. Other embodiments may be described or claimed.

A multiplexer includes a first filter disposed on a first signal path, a second filter disposed on a second signal path different from the first signal path, the second filter having a passband different from that of the first filter, a common connection point at which the first signal path and the second signal path are connected to each other, and an inductor disposed in series on a path connecting the common connection point and the first filter, the path being a portion of the first signal path. On the first signal path, a distance connecting the common connection point and the inductor is shorter than a distance connecting the inductor and the first filter.
