    Abstract: A distortion apparatus for a power amplifier comprises: pre-distortion circuitry that comprises a memory polynomial look-up-table (LUT) circuit; and post-distortion circuitry that updates the pre-distortion circuitry based on an output of the power amplifier. The pre-distortion circuitry comprises a plurality of LUTs. Each LUT corresponds to a different memory depth of a memory polynomial of a Volterra series. Each LUT indexed by an instantaneous power of an input sample delayed by an amount corresponds to a respective memory depth of each LUT. An output of the memory polynomial LUT circuit corresponds to a summation of an output of each LUT multiplied by the input sample delayed by the amount corresponding to the respective memory depth of each LUT, and an output of the pre-distortion circuitry is provided to the power amplifier.

    Abstract: A one way ranging method estimates a distance between first and second wireless devices using a technique that involves exchanging dual tone RF signals between the devices and, at each of the first and second devices, maintaining “baseband coherence” between baseband signals carried by the RF signals transmitted and received by each respective device.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for time-of-arrival (TOA) estimation techniques. Some embodiments of the disclosure provide for estimating radio propagation path parameters based on a training signal received over a set of active frequencies. The radio propagation path parameters (e.g., fading coefficients for each path) are used to reconstruct a channel frequency response on null frequencies (e.g., frequencies that did not include or carry the received training signal). A time-of-arrival parameter can then be estimated based on the estimated channel frequency response and the reconstructed channel frequency response (e.g., the channel frequency response estimated using both active frequencies and null frequencies).

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for receiving packets on a channel of an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system. A time shift value for a packet is estimated using a channel estimation and an FFT size. A synchronization position of the packet on a channel is adjusted using the estimated time shift value, and a filter is applied to the adjusted channel to generate a smoothed channel estimate. Alternatively, a channel with a corrected packet synchronization position is estimated, and a smoothed channel is estimated by applying a filter to the estimated channel. Packets are received on the channel, at a receiver of the OFDM receiving apparatus, in accordance with the estimated smoothed channel.

    Abstract: A measurement method performed at a receiving device involves sequentially receiving RF signals, each comprising a different set of at least first and second tones at differing frequencies. Complex gain responses (CGRs) for each of the first and second tones of each of the RF signals are measured. A phase offset is determined between: i) a phase of the CGR of the second tone of a first RF signal, and ii) a phase of the CGR of the first tone of a second RF signal. A coherent channel frequency (CCF) response of the second tone of the second RF signal is computed by adjusting a phase of the CGR of the second tone of the first RF signal by the phase offset. A processor executes a signal paths calculation algorithm using the CCF response of the second tone of the second RF signal to determine an angle or time of arrival of the first RF signal.

    Abstract: A method for detecting a modification, due to an interferer, of a wireless channel between a transmitting device and a receiving device. First and second samples of channel frequency response (CFR) of the wireless channel are measured within a time interval less than or equal to a pre-established static time interval throughout which the wireless channel is expected to exhibit a static characteristic in an environment without any interferer. An interferer is detected to have modified the wireless channel when a similarity condition reflecting a degree of similarity between the first and second CFR samples is not satisfied.

    Abstract: A method of determining a time of arrival (ToA) of a wireless transmission includes: sampling a signal received in a wireless transmission to generate first data in a time domain, performing a FFT on the first data to generate second data in a frequency domain, dividing the second data by a reference signal to obtain a channel frequency response, performing and IDFT on the channel frequency response to obtain a channel impulse response, determining a peak in the channel impulse response; and determining the ToA based on the peak.

    Abstract: A method of digital memoryless pre-distortion includes receiving an input digital signal from a signal source, calculating a look-up table (LUT) address from the input signal and a power scale, updating an LUT value associated with the LUT address based on the input signal and an output signal that is output from a power amplifier to a wireless communications channel, linearizing the output signal with the updated LUT value, and outputting the output signal to the wireless communications channel. The steps of updating an LUT value associated with the LUT address and linearizing the output signal with the updated LUT value are repeated until a level of linearization is achieved that meets a pre-defined standard.
