Abstract: Devices and methods for detection of active return loss for an antenna element of a plurality of antenna elements of a phased array antenna are provided. An exemplary device can convert a voltage differential at an input of a power amplifier (PA) to first current. The device can convert a coupled voltage corresponding to a signal transmitted from the PA to a respective antenna element, to a second current. The device can convert a reflected voltage corresponding to a signal reflected from the respective antenna element, to a third current. The device can convert the first current, the second current, and the third current to an output voltage at a generator output. The device can further have a controller that can adaptively generate codebooks for transmission based on the output voltage.

Abstract: An integrated circuit is disclosed that implements a delay-locked loop with differential delay lines. In an example aspect, the integrated circuit includes a first delay line, a second delay line, and control circuitry. The first and second delay lines are coupled to a reference clock source to receive a reference clock. The first delay line produces a first delayed signal that is delayed relative to the reference clock by a first delay amount. The second delay line produces a second delayed signal that is delayed relative to the reference clock by a second delay amount. The control circuitry is coupled to the first and second delay lines. The control circuitry is configured to receive the first delayed signal, to receive the second delayed signal, and to adjust the first delay amount or the second delay amount based on the first delayed signal and the second delayed signal.

Abstract: Various aspects of this disclosure describe configuring and operating a transistor switch. Examples include a self-biasing circuit that contains a diode-connected transistor whose source or drain is connected to the gate of a transistor configured as a switch. The diode-connected transistor is enabled and disabled responsive to voltage swings in the input signal to the transistor configured as a switch. When enabled, the diode-connected transistor may charge the floating gate voltage of the transistor configured as a switch. When disabled, the diode-connected transistor may acts as a high impedance to inhibit voltage discharge from the gate of the transistor configured as a switch.
