DESIGNING FIR FILTERS WITH GLOBALLY MINIMAX-OPTIMAL MAGNITUDE RESPONSE
20170317701 · 2017-11-02 · ·

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide mechanisms that enable designing an FIR filter that would have a guaranteed globally optimal magnitude response in terms of the minimax optimality criterion given a desired weight on the error in the stopband versus the passband. Design of such a filter is based on a theorem (“characterization theorem”) that provides an approach for characterizing the global minimax optimality of a given FIR filter h[n], n=0, 1, . . . , N, where optimality is evaluated with respect to a magnitude response of this filter, |H(e.sup.jω)|, as compared to the desired filter response, D(ω), which is unity in the passband and zero in the stopband. The characterization theorem enables characterizing optimality for both real-valued and complex-valued filter coefficients, and does not require any symmetry in the coefficients, thus being applicable to all non-linear phase FIR filters.

FREQUENCY SHAPING AND ADAPTIVE ROUNDING FOR O-QPSK AND MSK TRANSMISSION IN POLAR COORDINATES
20170288921 · 2017-10-05 ·

Systems and methods are directed to phase modulation of polar coordinates in a transmitter of wireless signals, to achieve high transmit power levels while meeting spectral mask and EVM requirements. An input signal is mapped to a sequence of modulation frequency (e.g., O-QPSK to MSK) to generate a mapped signal. A digital frequency shaping filter is applied to the mapped signal to generate a shaped signal. An adaptive rounding algorithm is applied to the shaped signal to generate a reduced bit-width signal. A digital frequency synthesizer is applied to the reduced bit-width signal to generate an analog waveform for transmission.

Estimation and mitigation of swept-tone interferers in frequency-hopped systems

The estimation and mitigation of swept-tone interferers includes receiving a composite signal comprising a signal of interest and a swept-tone interferer over an observation bandwidth or a hop bandwidth in a frequency-hopping system. The estimation of the interfering signal may be based on modeling the interferer as a magnitude periodic signal comprising non-overlapping, contiguous epochs, where each epoch may comprise a common pulse shape and a distinct phase rotation. The modeling may be based over the observation bandwidth, the hop bandwidth, or after combining the signal over all the frequency hop bandwidths. The period of the magnitude-periodic signal may be initially determined, and the common pulse shape and each of the distinct phase rotations may then be estimated. These estimates may be used to reconstruct an estimate of the swept-tone interferer, which may be subtracted from the composite signal to generate an interference-mitigated signal of interest.

INTERFERENCE CANCELLATION IN RADIO TRANSCEIVERS
20170230210 · 2017-08-10 ·

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may tune an auxiliary receiver within a first radio to a transmission frequency of a co-located second radio. The auxiliary receiver may downconvert a signal from the second radio so that the UE may generate an interference estimate and perform interference cancellation. In some cases, the auxiliary receiver may also be used to perform transmission corrections for transmissions of the first radio. For example, the auxiliary receiver may be used to enable gain control or digital predistortion. The auxiliary receiver may be selectively tuned to the transmission frequency of the first radio or the second radio based on whether the auxiliary receiver is being used to perform interference cancellation or transmission correction.
