    Abstract: A closed-loop power control (CLPC) system is disclosed that includes a first signal path for a first polarization and a second signal path for a second polarization. The first signal path includes a first power amplifier, a first output power detector configured to detect a first output power level of the first power amplifier, and a first processor configured to determine a first analog gain for a first controller and a first gain for a first digital-to-analog converter based on a first accumulated error between the first output power level and a target Effective Isotropically Radiated Power. A second processor is configured to set a first variable gain of a first variable gain amplifier coupled to an input of the first power amplifier. The CLPC can be configured to control the gain of the first signal path separately or as one signal path.

    Abstract: Compressive sensing (CS) channel recovery using history measurements. Both current and history measurements for AoAs estimation, and only use current measurement for coefficient estimation. The dominant angle of arrival (AoA) is estimated using history and current measurements. In Approach 1, the dominant AoA is invariant and the coefficients are uncorrelated. In Approach 2, the dominant AoA is invariant and the coefficients are fully correlated. The remaining AoAs are estimated. The coefficients corresponding to each estimated dominant AoA are estimated. And the channel is recovered.

    Abstract: Low-complexity methods of calculating a precoding matrix for use in MIMO transmission. In some embodiments, a method of calculating a precoding matrix includes (i) calculating a first portion of a first singular value decomposition, based on a first portion of a channel matrix; (ii) calculating a second portion of a second singular value decomposition, based on a second portion of the channel matrix; (iii) calculating an intermediate matrix, based on: the first portion of the first singular value decomposition and the second portion of the second singular value decomposition; and (iv) calculating a matrix of approximate right singular vectors. The calculating of the matrix of approximate right singular vectors may include calculating a product of factors, the factors including a first factor based on the conjugate transpose of the intermediate matrix, a second factor based on a unitary matrix, and a third factor based on a diagonal matrix.
