摘要:
Embodiments of the invention are generally directed to systems, methods, and apparatuses for inverter based return-to-zero (RZ)+non-RZ (NRZ) signaling. The interface circuit contains multiple ganged drivers (some or all of them are turned on at one point of time) and edge detection circuitry (to configure/modulate edges of the input data signal). These two circuits together generate weighted return-to-zero (RZ)+non-RZ (NRZ) signal.

A semiconductor device or a circuit includes a controllable oscillator and circuitry that senses a voltage which may control the controllable oscillator and digitally controls a gain compensation, adaptively compensating for a drop in a gain against overall loop gain within a closed loop. In one embodiment, a single supply source may be used to power the closed loop while a variable gain stage that is digitally controllable may adjust the gain in a feed-forward manner based on the drop.

A wireless communication device includes an antenna array with multiple antenna elements, an array of power amplifiers, and an array of phase shifters. Each antenna element is coupled to a power amplifier and a phase shifter. The device also includes transmitter circuitry coupled to the antenna array to encode a constant amplitude signal, which includes a power amplifier enable code to indicate which power amplifiers are to run in a subsequent data sample and a beam direction code to control beam direction of each phase shifter of the array of phase shifters in the subsequent data sample. The constant amplitude signal is then provided to the array of antenna elements and amplitude and phase modulation is combined over an air interface into a composite modulated signal.
摘要:
A device article and method for an open loop calibrated phase wrapping phase modulator. A tapped delay line may provide a coarse resolution for one or more phases of a signal. A phase multiplexer may receive one or more coarse phases from the tapped delay line and select a coarse phase to send to the digitally controlled delay line. A digitally controlled delay line may provide a fine resolution to the coarse phase from the phase multiplexer.

Architectures including digital outphasing transmitters. Digital signal generation circuitry generates at least two base-band sinusoid signals. Bandpass modulation circuitry is coupled to receive the base-band sinusoid signals and generates at least two modulated digital signals. Power amplifiers are coupled to receive the modulated digital signals to amplify the modulated digital signals. The amplified modulated signals are combined and transmitted.

Phase and amplitude offsets of a multicarrier transceiver may be reduced by measuring receiver amplitude and phase mismatches of receiver radio-frequency (RF) circuitry by performing a fast Fourier transform (FFT) on a receiver calibration signal.
摘要:
To attenuate the effects of phase noise and input jitter introduced in the reference frequency of the PLL, the zeros of the forward path transfer function are removed. As a result, the forward path does not amplify any phase noise or input jitter appearing in the reference frequency. However, overall loop stability is maintained by placing the zeros in the feedback path of the PLL. A discriminator may be placed in the feedback path to introduce the zero in the loop gain transfer function and provide stability.

First and second oscillator cells include tank circuits that may be tuned to a desired resonant frequency using varactors as variable reactance devices in a phase-shifting network. First and second transformers are connected to the oscillator cells to control the varactors.
