Methods for frequency division multiplexed on-off keying signals for wake-up radios

An access point (AP) that supports the IEEE 802.11ba protocol may transmit a frame including a physical layer (PHY) preamble to one or more stations (STAs) over a channel. The PHY preamble may include a plurality of repeated modulated legacy signal (L-SIG) fields to spoof a recipient of the frame and protect a wake up signal (WUS) to be subsequently transmitted by the AP. The AP may transmit the WUS to at least a first STA of the one or more STAs, wherein the at least the first STA is a IEEE 802.11ba compliant STA.

Identifying Faulted Message Elements by Modulation Consistency in 5G/6G
20230224196 · 2023-07-13 ·

Disclosed is a method to demodulate messages according to two different modulation schemes in 5G and 6G, and thereby identifying which message elements are likely faulted. The two modulation schemes are QAM in which the signal is a sum of two orthogonal amplitude-modulated “branch” signals, and classical amplitude-phase modulation in which each message element's raw signal is both amplitude and phase modulated. The two schemes have similar information density but different noise sensitivities. Therefore, a receiver can compare the demodulated message using one modulation scheme to the same message demodulated according to the other modulation scheme, and flag any message elements that demodulate differently. In addition, one modulation scheme may be more effective than the other depending on conditions.
