  • Patent number: 10896780
    Abstract: A package on a die having a low resistive substrate, wherein the package comprises an inductor on low-k dielectric and a capacitor on high-k dielectric. The stacked arrangement having different dielectric materials may provide an inductor having a high Q-factor while still having a high capacitance density. In addition, moving the inductor from the die to the package and fabricating the high density capacitor on the package reduces the silicon area required permitting smaller RF/analog blocks on the chip.

  • Patent number: 10880047
    Abstract: An apparatus, a system and a method use a class of dynamic switching mechanisms with multiple HARQ block sizes to reduce HARQ retransmission overhead while limiting the increase of HARQ ACK feedback overhead. The apparatus includes a first processing unit configured to estimate an intra-subframe fluctuation level of per-codeblock errors; a second processing unit configured to: map the intra-subframe fluctuation level to a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) block size; determine a HARQ acknowledgement (ACK) format based at least in part on the HARQ block size; indicate the selected HARQ block size to a data transmitter; and generate a HARQ ACK. Per-code block link adaptation can be used to support multiple MCSs for a single user in each subframe with fine time-frequency granularity, with low-bandwidth signaling overhead and without a complete dependency on reference signal (RS) structure.
