    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for the use of Crest Factor Reduction (CFR) technique that utilizes a cancellation pulse signal having a reduced length. The CFR technique may be applied to a signal to be transmitted, which may comprise a composite signal having one or more carrier signals. Each carrier signal of the composite signal may be filtered via a respective channel filter and then recombined to form the signal to be transmitted, on which the CFR operations are then applied. The length of the cancellation pulse signal is less than the number of taps of the channel filter with the largest number of taps. This reduction in cancellation pulse signal length significantly reduces the processing power required to perform the CFR operations while maintaining regulatory emissions compliance.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for a vector processor architecture that enables data interpolation in accordance with multiple dimensions, such as one-, two-, and three-dimensional linear interpolation. The vector processor architecture includes a vector processor and accompanying vector addressable memory that enable a simultaneous retrieval of multiple entries in the vector addressable memory to facilitate linear interpolation calculations. The vector processor architecture vastly increases the speed in which such calculations may occur compared to conventional processing architectures. Example implementations include the calculation of digital pre-distortion (DPD) coefficients for use with radio frequency (RF) transmitter chains to support multi-band applications.
