    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer program products using spectrum analysis or cross correlation techniques to discriminate against interference. These approaches are straight forward if both the forward and reflected signals contain complex or quadrature (I and Q) samples. But, if only single axis samples are available as is often the case to reduce the sampling rate, the resulting samples could represent the I component, the Q component or, more likely, some combination of the two. This generally requires some type of time alignment procedure to ensure proper phase. Assuming that the transmitted signal exists in complex form, this signal can be mathematically rotated in phase and then single axis sampled for comparison against the single axis reflected signal. If the rotation is done over equally spaced intervals that spans one complete cycle, the average of the absolute value all such return loss ratios will approach the actual return loss ratio and the interference will be suppressed. The resultant can be compared to a threshold value and trigger an alarm.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for array antenna adaptive digital pre-distortion with Bayesian observation analysis are provided. One method may include selecting a plurality of patch elements from an array antenna of a network element. The method may also include determining an accuracy confidence value for each patch element. A set of coefficients of the antenna array may be generated. In addition, an ensemble of non-linear forward models may be generated using the accuracy confidence value and the set of coefficients. Further, an array of pre-distortion signals may be generated using the ensemble of non-linear forward models, and each antenna of the array antenna may be configured with a corresponding pre-distortion signal from the array of pre-distortion signals.

    Abstract: A method includes accessing sets of correlation values, each set corresponding to a correlation performed between a number of first samples and a same number of second samples. The sets of correlation values were determined by aligning the number of the first samples with selected second samples and sliding the number of first samples across the second samples to select different sets of the second samples. The first samples are samples of a forward signal transmitted over a cable/connector system to one or more antennas, and the second samples are samples of a reflected RF signal that comprises a reflected version of the forward signal. The method includes determining a maximum value from the plurality of sets of correlation values, and associating the maximum value with a return loss of the cable/connector system. Apparatus, computer programs, and program products are also disclosed.
