Abstract:
A plug-and-play antenna may be used with many different types of wireless communication devices. An antenna may be coupled to an impedance tuning component and a waveform generator. A calibration control module receives radio status information, controls the waveform generator to vary a response of the antenna, and tunes the impedance tuning component to match impedances between a radio and the antenna.
Abstract:
An antenna module and communication device containing the antenna module are disclosed. The antenna module is disposed in a metal cavity. The antenna module includes a switched beam mm-wave antenna array having radiating elements separated by less than a wavelength of the radiating elements. The array is fed by a single transceiver chain. The array is disposed at the focal length of a low-profile mm-wave lens configured to steer the beam. A sub-10 GHz antenna is disposed closer to the opening of the cavity than the lens. The lens is a Fresnel Zone Plate lens having a focal length of less than about the wavelength of the beam, or a Saucer lens having shells of different refractive indexes and having a profile that is more than 6 times smaller than a Luneburg lens with a same focal length.

An apparatus of a wireless device, such as a user equipment (UE), can include processing circuitry configured to perform one or more of the handover-related techniques disclosed herein. For example, when associated with moving with a plurality of mobile devices from coverage of a first cell to a second cell, the processing circuitry can detect the second cell. One or more parameters of the second cell can be measured. The one or more parameters can be communicated to one or more other mobile devices of the plurality of mobile devices.

A third antenna can comprise a semiconductor antenna attached to the board assembly. A parasitic layer can be gap-coupled to the first and second antenna. The first and second antenna can include a rectangular patch antenna and an annular ring antenna. Other aspects are described.
Abstract:
In a recognition method, movement characteristics of an object are determined based on sensor information; image information of the object is determined based on the sensor information; and one or more gesture recognition operations are performed based on the movement characteristics and the image information to generate gesture recognition information. The recognition method may further include determining one or more physical characteristics of the object based on the image information; performing one or more physical characteristic pattern recognition operations based on the one or more physical characteristics to generate pattern recognition information; and generating a recognition output signal based on the gesture recognition information and the pattern recognition information.
Abstract:
Orbital angular momentum (OAM)-based multiplexing includes accessing distinct data streams to be multiplexed and transmitted according to a corresponding plurality of OAM modes. The OAM-based multiplexing further includes generating a set of antenna element-specific signals corresponding to individual antenna elements of an antenna array. Individual ones of the antenna element-specific signals are based on corresponding distinct data streams.
