    摘要: Polar transmitter calibration Various embodiments relate to a transmit and receive system using polar modulation, including: a transmitter configured to produce a transmit signal using modulation; a receiver configured to receive a transmit signal using in-phase/quadrature (IQ) processing; a Tx/Rx switch configured to loop a transmitted signal from the transmitter back to the receiver for calibration; and a controller configured to: command the transmitter to generate a real signal; command the Tx/Rx switch to loop the real signal back to the receiver to produce a first received signal; command the transmitter to generate an imaginary signal; command the Tx/Rx switch to loop the imaginary signal back to the receiver to produce a second received signal; determine a compensation parameter based on the first received signal and the second received signal; and command the receiver to compensate a third received signal based upon the compensation parameter.

    摘要: A multiple-mode RF power amplifier includes two power amplifiers, output combiner circuitry, and a switchable impedance circuit. The power amplifiers receive first and second input RF signals and produce first and second amplified RF signals. The output combiner circuitry combines the amplified RF signals to produce a combined amplified RF signal. The switchable impedance circuit has an input terminal coupled to an isolated port of the output combiner circuitry. When the switchable impedance circuit is in a first state, the isolated port is coupled through the switchable impedance circuit to a first impedance to configure the multiple-mode RF power amplifier as a balanced amplifier. When the switchable impedance circuit is in a second or third state, the isolated port is coupled through the switchable impedance circuit to a second or third impedance to configure the multiple-mode RF power amplifier as a first or second type of Doherty power amplifier.

    摘要: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to an apparatus having a multi-link device (MLD) including processing circuitry to communicate signals with one of a plurality of remote devices over multiple communications link. The MLD and the one of the remote devices operate in first and second communication-specific configurations as follows. A physical layer convergence procedure protocol data unit (PPDU) is transmitted in one of the links while a PPDU is communicated in another one of the links under a first configuration. A PPDU is communicated in a first one of the respective communications links with an ending time set based on a PPDU communicated in a second one of the respective communications links in a second configuration. Such approaches may be carried out based on capabilities relating to simultaneous transmission and reception of MLDs that are communicating.

    摘要: A detector circuit of an eUSB repeater is coupled to a USB bus to detect a wake signal from a device through the USB bus and to send a forced resume signal to the device in response thereto. Repeater logic of the eUSB repeater repeats the received wake signal to the host. The host has a suspend state and an active state. The detector circuit detects the host resume signal from the host in the active state and stops sending the forced resume signal to the device in response thereto.

    摘要: One example discloses a method for beamforming feedback reduction in a WLAN (wireless local area network), including: generating a per-tone beamforming feedback matrix by vectorizing a set of steering vectors using vectorization based dimension reduction (DR-Vec); performing lossy compression on the vectors; reducing the per-tone beamforming feedback matrix to one vector; and generating per-tone beamforming angle information using only the one vector.

    摘要: A power amplifier device includes a transistor die with an elongated bondpad coupled to a terminal of an integrated transistor. The device also includes a substrate formed from a stack of alternating dielectric and patterned conductive layers. An elongated die contact is exposed at a first substrate surface and is attached to the elongated bondpad to provide a uniform connection between the die contact and the elongated bondpad. A vertical interconnect structure is connected to the die contact and extends towards the second substrate surface. A circuit includes passive component(s) coupled to the second substrate surface and to the vertical interconnect structure. An encapsulation material layer covers the passive component(s) and the second substrate surface. A plurality of device interconnects are coupled to the substrate, electrically coupled to the power transistor die, and exposed at a contact surface of the power amplifier device.
