Abstract: Systems and methods for automatic level control (ALC) are provided. In one embodiment, an ALC system for communications signals comprises: a multi-threshold programmable ALC controller; and at least one signal path that includes: a digital step attenuator configured to receive an analog communications signal and attenuate the analog communications signal in response to an attenuation adjustment signal from the ALC controller; and an analog-to-digital converter configured to receive the analog communications signal as attenuated by the digital step attenuator and generate samples of the attenuated analog communications signal, wherein the ALC controller receives the samples. The ALC controller comprises a plurality of clip detectors that function in parallel. Each of the clip detectors are programmed with a respective amplitude and time threshold. Based on which of the plurality of clip detectors determine that the samples exceed their respective amplitude and time threshold, the ALC controller generates the attenuation adjustment signal.

Abstract: In one example, a system comprises a central unit and a radiating point located remotely from the central unit and communicatively coupled to the central unit. The radiating point is configured to provide radio frequency signals to a coverage zone via one or more antennas. The system further comprises a radar sensor communicatively coupled to the radiating point and configured to capture image data in the coverage zone of the radiating point, wherein the radar sensor includes a plurality of transmitters and receivers coupled to an antenna array. One or more components of the system are configured to determine user detection data for users in the coverage zone based on the image data captured by the radar sensor and adjust the power consumption of the radiating point based on the user detection data.

Abstract: A distributed antenna system includes a master unit configured to receive at least one set of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) channel signals from at least one signal source. The master unit is configured to frequency convert at least one of the MIMO channel signals to a different frequency from an original frequency, and combine the MIMO channel signals for transmission. An optical link couples the master unit with a unit remote from the master unit for transceiving the MIMO channel signals. Conversion circuitry is configured to frequency convert at least one of the first and second MIMO channel signals from the different frequency back to an original frequency for transmission over an antenna.

Abstract: To provide improvements in crest factor reduction in a distributed communication system, CFR configuration parameters can be determined based on communication signals received from a base station entity and distributed to node(s) of the distributed communication system. CFR engine(s) in the node(s) may perform CFR based on the CFR configuration parameters, and/or may adjust their CFR engine(s) based on signal parameters and/or operating parameters of a power amplifier coupled to a respective CFR engine. Some or all CFR processing may be offloaded from a node and assigned to optical transport card(s) of the system controller based on a processing bandwidth associated with the optical transport card(s).
