    Abstract: Selectively enabling an amplitude processing circuit and a phase processing circuit of a wireless station's polar receiver with respect to reception of a beacon signal. Such systems and methods may include sequentially demodulating symbols of the received beacon signal using at least the phase processing circuit to detect a traffic indication signal value in a data payload portion of the received beacon signal. Upon detecting a condition indicating no data traffic for the wireless station, the phase processing circuit may be turned off. The polar receiver may demodulate symbols of the received beacon signal and upon detecting a beacon preamble symbol sequence, shut off the amplitude processing circuit and set the amplitude to a fixed value. The phase processing circuit in conjunction with the fixed amplitude value may be used to demodulate symbols of the beacon signal.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for aligning amplitude and phase signals in a polar receiver. A receiver generates digital amplitude and phase signals representing the amplitude and phase of a modulated input signal. At least one of the digital signals is filtered using a fractional delay filter with a variable delay. The delay of the fractional delay filter is adjusted to align the amplitude and phase signals. In some embodiments, an error vector magnitude is determined by comparing in-phase and quadrature values of the signal with values corresponding to a constellation point, and the delay is adjusted based on the error vector magnitude. The fractional delay filter may be a finite impulse response filter with coefficients stored in a lookup table that correspond to different delays.

    Abstract: A predistortion circuit receives an input polar signal to be transmitted, including an input amplitude signal and an input phase signal. The input polar signal is predistorted using at least one predistortion parameter selected from a lookup table. A phase-and-amplitude modulated radio-frequency signal is generated corresponding to the predistorted polar signal. A copy of the generated radio-frequency signal is provided to a polar receiver. The polar receiver is operated to generate, from the copy of the radio-frequency signal and without information relating to the generated transmit signal, a feedback polar signal including a feedback amplitude signal and a feedback phase signal. The feedback polar signal is compared to the input polar signal, the lookup table is updated in response to the comparison.
