Abstract:
An apparatus for transmitting a bit in addition to a plurality of payload data symbols of a communication protocol is provided. The apparatus comprises an input interface configured to receive information about a bit value of the bit. Further, the apparatus comprises a transmission circuit configured to, if the bit value is a first value, transmit the plurality of payload data symbols at predetermined positions in a data signal as pulses of variable pulse length. The respective pulse length of each of the pulses is selected based on the symbol value of the payload data symbol represented by the respective pulse. If the bit value is a second value, the transmission circuit is configured to transmit a pulse exhibiting a pulse length being longer than a maximum payload data symbol pulse length defined in the communication protocol at the predetermined position of the pulse for the d-th payload data symbol of the plurality of payload data symbols, d=k+i if k+i≤z. d=([k+i] mod z) if k+i>z. k is the symbol value of the i-th payload data symbol of the plurality of payload data symbols, z is the number of possible symbol values of the payload data symbols defined in the communication protocol, and 1≤i≤z.
Abstract:
A radio-head apparatus can comprise memory to store dithering information of the apparatus. The radio-head can further include radio-head circuitry to generate a clock signal according to the dithering information and to provide a wakeup signal, subsequent to commencement of clock signal generation, to instruct a secondary RH to use the clock signal of the RH. The same wakeup signal is also used to synchronize the finite state machines of both RHs that govern and report the dithering information. Synchronization of the FSM allows estimation of information to be used in the secondary RH for compensation of the clock dithering applied in the primary RH. Other systems and apparatuses are described.

For example, a transmitter, e.g., for a wireless communication device, may be configured to transmit a wideband Radio Frequency (RF) Transmit (Tx) signal having a wide bandwidth of at least 80 Megahertz (MHz). For example, the transmitter may be configured to generate the wideband RF Tx signal having the wide bandwidth based on a baseband signal. The transmitter may be configured to generate the wideband RF Tx signal including a suppressed third harmonic and a suppressed fifth harmonic.
