Device and method for wireless transmission
In certain aspects, a device for wireless transmission includes a transmission path, a feedback path, and a DPD control module. The transmission path includes a digital pre-distortion (DPD) conversion module configured to perform pre-distortion processing on an amplitude and a phase of a transmission signal based on a pre-distortion processing strategy. The transmission path further includes a power amplifier coupled to a downstream of the DPD conversion module and configured to amplify a power of the transmission signal. The feedback path is coupled to the transmission path at the downstream of the power amplifier and configured to generate a feedback signal. The feedback path includes a static gain compensation module configured to be activated during an initial time period of each frame to track and update a static gain for the feedback signal and configured to hold the static gain after the initial time period of each frame. The DPD control module is coupled to the feedback path and the DPD conversion module and configured to adjust the pre-distortion processing strategy based on an amplitude difference and a phase difference between the transmission signal and the feedback signal.

Remote Radio Unit with Adaptive Fronthaul Link using Adaptive Compression
A distributed radio frequency communication system facilitates communication between a wireless terminal and a core network. The system includes a remote radio unit (RRU) coupled to at least one antenna to communicate with the wireless terminal. The RRU includes electronic circuitry to perform at least a first portion of a first-level protocol of a radio access network (RAN) for communicating between the wireless terminal and the core network. The system also includes a baseband unit (BBU) coupled to the core network, and configured to perform at least a second-level protocol of the RAN. A fronthaul link is coupled to the BBU and the RRU. The fronthaul link utilizes an adaptive fronthaul protocol for communication between the BBU and the RRU. The adaptive fronthaul protocol has provisions for adapting to conditions of the fronthaul link and radio network by changing the way data is communicated over the fronthaul link.
TECHNIQUES FOR TEMPERATURE ADAPTATION FOR DIGITAL PRE-DISTORTION FACTORY TRAINING
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support adaptation of digital pre-distortion (DPD) coefficients based on a temperature of a user equipment (UE). The UE may determine a power offset value based on a first temperature value associated with a training procedure for the UE, a second temperature value associated with the UE, and a constant value. The training procedure may be associated with multiple sets of coefficients for the UE. The UE may apply the power offset value to a transmission power level for transmission of a message. The UE may determine a set of coefficients of the multiple sets of coefficients based on the training procedure and the power offset value applied to the transmission power level. The UE may apply the coefficients to a DPD engine of the UE to generate the message for transmission at the transmission power level.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING DATA
There is provided a method of transmitting and receiving data across a network. A receiver device comprises a recovery module comprising a neural network trained to recover signals from clipped signals. The transmitter device may clip the original signal more aggressively due to the improved performance of the machine-learning based recovery module, thereby reducing the Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the signal.

MULTI-BAND TRANSMITTER
Disclosed is a multi-band transmitter for transmitting a multi-band signal. The multi-band transmitter comprises: a pre-distortion unit including a first digital pre-distorter (DPD) which pre-distorts a first band signal and a second DPD which pre-distorts a second band signal discontinuous from the first band signal; a conversion unit which analog-converts the pre-distorted first band signal and the pre-distorted second band signal; an amplification unit including a first power amplifier (PA), which amplifies the analog-converted first band signal, and a second PA, which amplifies the analog-converted second band signal; and a feedback unit which digital-converts the amplified first band signal to feed the digital-converted first band signal back to the first DPD and digital-converts the amplified second band signal to feed the digital-converted second band signal back to the second DPD. The pre-distortion unit performs pre-distortion by using the fed-back first band signal and the fed-back second band signal.
