A method of processing data and related apparatuses. The method relies on an optical finite impulse response (FIR) filter. This optical FIR filter comprises several delay stages having weights set in accordance with parameters of a transformation to be applied by the optical FIR filter. Each of the delay stages is configured to impose a delay matched to a given input data period corresponding to a given input sample rate. According to the method, an optical signal is coupled into the optical FIR filter. The optical signal carries a data stream of input samples encoded at the given input sample rate; the data stream represents the data to be processed. Next, output samples are collected from an output data stream carried by an output optical signal obtained in output of the optical FIR filter. A set of output samples are obtained, which are representative of processed data.

An acoustic wave device includes a high-acoustic-velocity film, a low-acoustic-velocity film provided on the high-acoustic-velocity film, a piezoelectric layer provided on the low-acoustic-velocity film, and an IDT electrode provided on the piezoelectric layer. An acoustic velocity of bulk waves propagating through the high-acoustic-velocity film is higher than an acoustic velocity of acoustic waves propagating through the piezoelectric layer. An acoustic velocity of bulk waves propagating through the low-acoustic-velocity film is lower than an acoustic velocity of bulk waves propagating through the piezoelectric layer. The low-acoustic-velocity film includes a material including hydrogen atoms.

A filter circuit includes a processor configured to compare a current input value with a last-time output value, add a first correction value to the current input value and to the last-time output value if a comparison result between the current input value and the last-time output value is greater than a predetermined value, and add a second correction value smaller than the first correction value to the current input value and to the last-time output value if the comparison result is smaller than or equal to the predetermined value, and calculate a current output value based on the current input value and the last-time output value to each of which the first correction value or the second correction value has been added.

An electronic device may include wireless circuitry having an LC filter. The LC filter may include first and second series inductors coupled between the input and output of the LC filter. An input capacitor can be coupled at the input of the LC filter, and an output capacitor can be coupled at the output of the LC filter. Feedforward capacitors can be cross-coupled with the first and second series inductors to at least partially or fully cancel out any parasitic capacitance associated with the first and second series inductors to mitigate any undesired self-resonant effects associated with the series inductors.

A digital signal processor is designed to channelize an input signal, and includes a channelizer circuit and a plurality of tuning modules. The channelizer circuit is designed to receive an input signal having a first bandwidth and to channelize the input signal into a first set of channels each having a bandwidth smaller than the first bandwidth as a first output signal and to channelize the input signal into a second set of channels having a bandwidth smaller than the first bandwidth as a second output signal. The plurality of tuning modules are designed to receive one or more channels from the first output signal or the second output signal and to further downsample the one or more channels to a user-defined bandwidth at a user-defined center frequency. Each of the plurality of tuning modules include a plurality of FIR filter blocks and a memory having a plurality of FIR filter coefficients.

One example includes a digital signal conditioner (DSC) system. A sample selector bank receives a digital sample block of an input signal that is provided at a supported input oversampling factor and selects a subset of samples from the digital sample block based on a selection signal. A tap weights selector bank generates a set of tap weights based on the selection signal. A filter bank receives the subset of the samples from each of the sample selectors and a respective set of tap weights. Each filter provides a weighted sample associated with the respective subset of samples and the respective set of tap weights. A reformattor receives the weighted sample from each of the filters and provides a filtered sample block including the weighted sample from a subset of the filters at an output oversampling factor for each supported input oversampling factor based on a selected supported resampling ratio.
