  • Patent number: 11522334
    Abstract: Methods and devices are described for performing an all-phase measurement of an ultra-fast laser pulse having a spectral range of greater than one octave. The ultra-fast laser pulse may be split into a first beam comprising a fundamental light with a wavelength ?0 and a second beam comprising a light with a wavelength 2?0. The light with the wavelength 2?0 may be frequency doubled to a light with a wavelength ?0 to generate an interference with the fundamental light. Fourier transform may be performed on an interference spectrum of the interference, and a relative envelope delay (RED) between the fundamental light and the frequency doubled light and a carrier envelope phase (CEP) may be acquired based on a result of the Fourier transform.

  • Patent number: 11405089
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing interference in a communication network include transmitting a first downlink signal from a first transmit/receive point (TRP) to an electronic device using a beam. The electronic device can also receive a second downlink signal from a second TRP, where a portion of the first downlink signal from the first TRP interferes with the second downlink signal. The first TRP then receives a series of uplink pilot signals from the electronic device. Using the received uplink pilot signals, the first TRP can then estimate the angle of departure (AoD) for the intended signal (first downlink signal), and the AoD for the interference signal. The first TRP can then reconfigure the beam used to transmit the first downlink signal based on the estimated AoDs for the intended signal and interference signal to manage the interference effect that the first leakage signal has on the second downlink signal.
