Technologies directed to improving power for wireless transceivers are described. One method determines, in a first mode, a first value associated with a wireless link and a second values associated with the wireless link, the first value being indicative of a first metric and the second value being indicative of a second metric different from the first metric. The first value and the second value collectively indicate a category of channel quality for the wireless link. The method determines that the wireless device can operate in a second mode for subsequent data based on the category of channel quality, wherein in the second mode the wireless device consumes less power than in the first power mode. The method receives, in the second mode, second data over the wireless link.

A coding method for data communication is provided, and may be applied to a plurality of scenarios such as a metro network, a backbone network, and a data center interconnection. The method includes: forming a first codeword, where the first codeword includes n image bits and n to-be-transmitted bits, the n image bits are selected from to-be-transmitted bits in m source codewords, the source codeword is a codeword formed before the first codeword, both n and m are positive integers, and n>m; and sending the n to-be-transmitted bits in the first codeword. The bit in the first codeword is protected by a plurality of codewords generated at different moments, and a coding gain effect is better. In addition, the bit in the codeword is protected by different quantities of codewords.

A faulted message element in 5G or 6G can often be identified according to its modulation parameters, including a large deviation of the branch amplitudes from the predetermined amplitude levels of the modulation scheme, and/or the SNR of the branch amplitudes, and/or an amplitude variation of the raw signal or the branches during the message element, and/or an inconsistency between the modulation state as determined by the amplitude and phase of the raw waveform versus the amplitudes of the orthogonal branch signals, among other measures of modulation quality. An AI model may be necessary to correlate the various quality measures, and optionally to determine the correct demodulation of faulted message elements. Costly, time-consuming retransmissions may be avoided by determining the correct demodulation of each message element at the receiver, thereby improving throughput and reliability with fewer delays.

Apparatuses, systems, and methods for implied sequence numbering of transactions in a processor-based system. The processor-based system includes a transmit circuit configured to generate an implied sequence number for each entry to be transmitted as a packet. The transmit circuit is configured to generate a packet to be transmitted based on an entry, wherein the packet including the payload information and the transmit check value based on the implied sequence number and associated with the entry. In this manner, including an individual sequence number with every transmitted packet may be reduced or avoided to reduce or avoid consuming bandwidth on the communications interface, as the bits used by the sequence number could ordinarily be used for data transmission instead. A receiver circuit is configured to receive the transmitted packet including the payload and the transmit check value, wherein the transmit check value is based on the transmit sequence number.

A universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter includes a transmission register to include information to be transmitted, a receive register to include information received, a frame error checking circuit to evaluate contents of the receive register for a frame error, and control logic. The control logic is to route the contents of the transmission register to the receive register. The control logic is to, during transmission of the contents of the transmission register through the reprogrammable pin to the receive register, modify a bit inversion register to yield modified contents to be provided to the receive register. The modified contents are to cause a frame error. The control logic is to determine whether the frame error checking circuit detected the frame error.

A faulted 5G/6G message may be recovered by finding the faulted message elements and altering them until the fault is corrected. Disclosed are methods to evaluate the modulation quality of each message element using multiple criteria. The receiver can determine a first quality by measuring the overall (sum-signal) amplitude and phase of each message element, and comparing to the predetermined amplitude and phase levels. The receiver can determine a second quality by separating the overall wave into orthogonal components (branches) and comparing the branch amplitudes to the predetermined levels. The receiver can determine a third quality according to the SNR of the overall signal and the two branch signals. By combining the first, second, and third quality factors, the receiver can identify the most likely faulted message elements. The receiver can then alter the worst message elements in a nested grid search to find the correct message version.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for improving communication throughput despite periodic blockages. In some implementations, a method includes receiving, by a receiver and from a transmitter, code blocks transmitted according to a first set of communication parameters that includes one or more first interleaver parameters used to interleave information in the code blocks prior to transmission. Corrupted portions of at least some of the received code blocks are identified. A blockage duration and a blockage interval of a blockage of communication channel between the transmitter and the receiver are determined based on the corrupted portions of the received code blocks. A second set of communication parameters that includes one or more second interleaver parameters are determined based on the blockage duration and blockage interval. The second set of communication parameters are communicated to the transmitter for subsequent transmissions by the transmitter to the receiver.
