Abstract: A wireless transmitter for transmitting bits to a wireless receiver. The wireless transmitter comprises: (i) circuitry for generating binary data bits; and (ii) circuitry for providing a first spreading sequence for a first bit in the binary data bits and for providing a second spreading sequence for a second bit in the binary data bits, wherein the second bit is complementary to the first bit. Each spreading sequence consists of an integer number N of bits, and the circuitry for providing provides a same bit value in an integer number M of bit positions in the first and second spreading sequences, where M

Abstract: Systems and methods of measuring distance between two wireless devices by combining phase shift and time-of-flight measurements. A first wireless devices sends a first packet to the second wireless device. After receiving the first packet, the second wireless device sending to the first wireless device a second packet. After sending the second packet, the second wireless device sends a first continuous wave signal to the first wireless device. After receiving the first continuous wave signal, the first wireless device sends to the second wireless device a second continuous wave signal. The first wireless device then calculates a time-of-flight measurement based on a time between the first wireless device sending the first packet and receiving the second packet, and calculates a second measurement based on a phase shift of the first continuous wave signal and the second continuous wave signal, and combines the two measurements.

Abstract: A circuit includes a first wireless radio frequency (RF) transceiver and a time-of-flight estimator included with or coupled to the first wireless RF transceiver. The time-of-flight estimator estimates a time-of-flight between the first wireless RF transceiver and a second wireless RF transceiver using: a first interval value that indicates an amount of time between when the second wireless RF transceiver received the message and when the second wireless RF transceiver transmitted the response; a first error value that indicates an offset between when the second wireless RF transceiver sampled the message and a target sampling point for the message; a second interval value that indicates an amount of time between when the TX chain sent the message and when the RX chain received the response; and a second error value that indicates an offset between when the RX chain sampled the response and a target sampling point for the response.

Abstract: A method of relay-attack resistant communications in a wireless communications system that includes a master wireless device (Master) sending a synchronization signal to a slave wireless device (Slave). The synchronization signal includes timing information including a common time reference and a timeslot duration for interlocking Master communication timeslots for Master and Slave communication timeslots so that an alternating TX and RX role pattern is provided. The Master analyzes Slave packet data received from the Slave to identify overlaps of a transmission from the Master and the slave packet data, and in a case of detecting overlap, suspends communications from Master to Slave to prevent a relay-attack.

Abstract: A circuit includes a receiver configured to couple to an antenna, configured to have a wakeup mode and an active mode, and to transition from the wakeup mode to the active mode in response to a wakeup signal received through the antenna. The receiver includes an impedance matching circuit coupled with the antenna, a low-noise amplifier coupled with the impedance matching circuit, a mixer coupled with the low-noise amplifier, a radio-frequency reference clock generator coupled with the mixer, a low-pass filter coupled with the mixer, an analog-to digital-converter coupled with the low-pass filter, and a control circuit configured to transition the receiver from the wakeup mode to the active mode in response to the wakeup signal. The low-noise amplifier, the mixer, the radio frequency reference clock generator, and the analog-to-digital converter are configured to be duty-cycled between a sleep state and an active wakeup receive state during the wakeup mode.
