Abstract: An SAR ADC includes: at least one sub-ADC, configured to convert a corresponding input signal to a corresponding SAR code; and a tuning control unit, configured to adjust a full-scale voltage (VFS) of each of the sub-ADC to a corresponding predetermined target level in a VFS tuning mode. The tuning control unit generates a tuning code to control an adjusting capacitor array coupled to the sub-ADC for tuning the VFS. The tuning control unit controls the sub-ADC to convert plural reference voltages in the VFS tuning mode and extrapolating the conversion result to determine a corresponding calibrating VFS. The tuning control unit determines whether the calibrating VFS meeting the target VFS and loops the adjusting process in a linear search method or in a SAR method.

Abstract: A Wi-Fi wake-up receiver that receives wake-up signals encoded using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing based on-off keying (OFDM-OOK) modulation includes receiver circuitry having analog envelope detector circuitry configured to non-linearly down-convert an input signal and provide an energy signal for sampling by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). A wake-up signal for waking up a main radio in a Wi-Fi device can be based on the digitized energy signal. The receiver circuitry can further include, upstream of the envelope detector circuitry and the ADC in the signal chain, an analog mixer for linearly down-converting the input signal and a low-pass filter for attenuating adjacent-channel interferer (ACI) signals prior to the non-linear down-conversion by the envelope detector circuitry. Sampling of the energy signal rather than the higher-bandwidth input signal yield power savings in the ADC and associated circuitry such as a modem.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a nasal breathing monitoring system with an ultrasonic transducer (e.g., a microphone) to be placed on or near the outside of the user's nose and record an audio signal of the sound of the user's breathing. The recorded breathing audio signal may be digitized and analyzed, e.g., based on its spectral characteristics, in order to determine one or more breathing characteristics of the user's breathing. The system may then adjust some system parameter based on the determined one or more breathing characteristics, e.g., a signal gain, a filter, feedback to the user, etc. The system may also use the one or more breathing characteristics to: recognize a particular user, present a breathing exercise to a user, tailor particular user feedback, or compare the user's breathing characteristics to historical breathing data for the user and/or historical breathing data from other users obtained via an anonymized database.

Abstract: A digital correction method for dynamic range expansion of multiple ADCs includes: obtaining gain and offset correction values of other channels relative to a standard channel CH1 based on iterative computations through positive and negative amplitude auxiliary values and positive and negative base values, then performing gain-offset error correction on the other channels, and then calculating phase differences of the other channels relative to the standard channel CH1 and constructing fractional delay filters with a Farrow structure corresponding to the channels, correcting sampling data X2, . . . , XM after performing the gain-offset error correction. Digital correction of sampling data collected from multiple channels in a multi-ADC system is realized while ensuring that respective dynamic ranges of the sampling data with different gains output by the multiple channels are not lost.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to an apparatus and a method for adjusting a level of a low-noise amplifier (LNA), a terminal device, and a network-element device. The apparatus includes a LNA, a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) module, and an automatic gain control (AGC). The LNA is configured to amplify a received signal to obtain a first signal, where the received signal includes out-of-band interference and a target signal. The PAPR module is configured to measure a PAPR value of the first signal. The AGC module is configured to adjust a gain level of the LNA, according to the PAPR value, a maximum-linear-input-power point of the LNA, and a strength of the first signal.
