Method for antenna selection and related products
A method for antenna selection and related products are provided. The method is applicable to a user terminal equipment including four internal-antenna groups and one external-antenna group. The four internal-antenna groups are distributed around a periphery of the user terminal equipment. Each internal-antenna group includes two internal antennas with different polarization directions. The external-antenna group is electrically coupled to the user terminal equipment. The method includes the following. Whether the user terminal equipment is coupled to the external-antenna group is determined. When the user terminal equipment is coupled to the external-antenna group and the external-antenna group is determined to be enabled, two target internal antennas are determined from any of the four internal-antenna groups or two adjacent internal-antenna groups among the four internal-antenna groups. A target antenna group is formed according to the two target internal antennas and two external antennas to receive and transmit radio frequency signals.
Dynamic antenna selection in millimeter wave systems
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications in millimeter wave (mmW) systems are described. A mmW wireless device may identify a plurality of subsets of antennas from available antennas. The wireless device may compare effective array gain values for each subset in the plurality of subsets of antennas. An effective array gain value may be determined based on a realized array gain for each subset normalized or penalized by a radio frequency (RF) power consumption for antennas corresponding to each subset in the plurality of subsets of antennas. Based on the comparison, the wireless device may select one or more subsets of the plurality of subsets of antennas, the selected one or more subsets may correspond to antenna combinations of one or more antenna subarray units. The mmW wireless device may then communicate using the selected one or more subsets.
Signal strength prediction based on line of sight analysis
Architectures and techniques are presented that can provide point-to-point analysis to generate an improved signal strength prediction (SSP) based on, e.g., earth surface image data processing and analysis to draw conclusions of line of sight (LOS) along the propagation path between a BTS or another AP transmitter and CPE receiver. For example, USGS image data and/or elevation data of locations are identified to correspond to signal propagation between the transmitter and receiver can be analyzed for LOS signal quality at a fixed location, in addition to the statistical model prediction of the RF signal quality. As a result, foliage or terrain that obstructs the LOS can be identified and utilized to improve SSP by eliminating the additional pathloss due to LOS obstructions. Such can provide a significant improvement to SSP results that are conventionally predicted by statistical models rather than a point-to-point analysis.

A plurality of multicarrier signals is generated. Each of the plurality of multicarrier signals includes a pilot symbol sequence at a same temporal point in each multicarrier signal. Each pilot symbol sequence includes a plurality of pilot symbols with non-zero amplitude. The pilot symbol sequences are orthogonal to each other at the same temporal point. A quantity of the plurality of pilot symbols in each pilot symbol sequence is greater than or equal to a quantity of the plurality of multicarrier signals to be transmitted. The plurality of multicarrier signals are transmitted in an identical frequency band from a plurality of antennas. The plurality of antennas includes two, three, or four antennas.
LOW-POWER AUTO-CORRELATION ANTENNA SELECTION FOR MULTI-ANTENNA SYSTEM
Systems and methods for low-power auto-correlation antenna selection for multi-antenna systems are disclosed. In particular, a computing device, such as an Internet of Things (IoT) computing device, may include a transceiver operating with multiple antennas. For example, the computing device may operate under a low-power wireless standard such as Long Range BLUETOOTH LOW ENERGY (LR BLE). In an exemplary aspect, an antenna from amongst the multiple antennas may be selected based on which antenna is receiving a best copy of a periodic signal. The periodic signal is likely indicative of a preamble pattern and, as such, may be used to activate a cross-correlation circuit for signal detection confirmation. Power consumption is reduced by delaying activation of the cross-correlation circuit until a likely signal is detected by detection of the periodic signal.
Signal integration circuit and electronic device
An electronic device includes a communication module, an external module and a signal integration circuit. The signal integration circuit includes a first input port, a second input port, a third input port and an output port. The first input port is for inputting an input signal. The second input port is for selectively inputting a first L1 band signal. The third input port is for selectively inputting a second L1 band signal. The output port selectively outputs a first output signal or a second output signal. When the third input port is coupled to an external module, the third input port is for inputting the second L1 band signal, and the output port outputs the second output signal. When the third input port is not coupled to the external module, the second input port is for inputting the first L1 band signal, and the output port outputs the first output signal.
