  • Publication number: 20220078627
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described to concurrently utilize actively used spectrum for new TDD or FDD networks, and also for enabling Distributed-Input Distributed Output (DIDO) techniques to be used with both the new networks and the existing networks in the same spectrum.

  • Publication number: 20220029672
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for radio frequency (RF) calibration in a multiple antenna system (MAS) with multi-user (MU) transmissions (“MU-MAS”) exploiting uplink/downlink channel reciprocity. The RF calibration is used to compute open-loop downlink precoder based on uplink channel estimates, thereby avoiding feedback overhead for channel state information as in closed-loop schemes. For example, a MU-MAS of one embodiment comprises a wireless cellular network with one or multiple beacon stations, multiple client devices and multiple distributed antennas operating cooperatively via precoding methods to eliminate inter-client interference and increase network capacity.

  • Publication number: 20210351819
    Abstract: A system and method are described which enable planned evolution and obsolescence of multiuser wireless spectrum. One embodiment of such a system includes one or multiple centralized processors and one or multiple distributed nodes that communicate via wireline or wireless connections. The distributed nodes may share their identification number and other reconfigurable system parameters with the centralized processor. The information about all distributed nodes may be stored in a database that is shared by all centralized processors. The reconfigurable system parameters may comprise power emission, frequency band, modulation/coding scheme. The distributed nodes may be software defined radios such as FPGA, DSP, GPU and/or GPCPU that run algorithms for baseband signal processing and may be reconfigured remotely by the centralized processor. A cloud wireless system may be used wherein the distributed nodes are reconfigured periodically or instantly to adjust to the evolving wireless architecture.

  • Publication number: 20210227420
    Abstract: A system and method to reduce the number of active targeted viruses, bacteria or other microbes or microorganisms within an indoor or outdoor space using an array of radio frequency antennas, lasers or acoustic emitters is presented. The system sweeps through a series of beam patterns. The radio, laser or acoustic frequency and dwell time depend on the targeted viruses and bacteria. By sweeping through a wide range of transmit beamforming vectors, it is possible to kill or render harmless microbes or microorganisms at many locations throughout the coverage area while avoiding exposing humans to harmful levels of radio frequency or laser power. The proposed system and method can be flexibly applied to many array geometries including those with large spacing and non-isotropic antennas or acoustic emitters, as well to a variety of type of lasers.
