    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe adapting a PIM model to compensate for changing PIM interference. A PIM model can include circuitry that generates a PIM compensation value that compensates for (i.e., mitigates or subtracts) PIM interference caused by transmitting two or more transmitter (TX) carriers in the same path. The disclosed adaptive scheme generates updated coefficients for the PIM model which are calculated after the RX signal has been removed from the RX channel. In this manner, as the PIM interference changes due to environmental conditions (e.g., temperature at the base station), the adaptive scheme can update the PIM model to generate a PIM compensation value that cancels the PIM interference.

    Abstract: Channel covariance feedback is disclosed for enhanced full-dimension multiple input, multiple output (eFD-MIMO) systems. Channel state information (CSI) reference signal (CSI-RS) feedback operations are implemented using spatial covariance feedback of a covariance estimate. After obtaining a set of orthogonal basis vectors, a user equipment (UE) measures the CSI-RS from a base station and determines the spatial covariance matrix from the signal. The UE may then compress the spatial covariance matrix into a lower-dimension covariance estimate matrix using the orthogonal basis vectors. The lower-dimension matrix along with element-wise quantization allows for feedback of spatial covariance for eFD-MIMO systems without excessive feedback overhead.

  • Patent number: 11601223
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) in communication with a base station may utilize multiple code word (MCW) transmissions within a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process. An original transmission has a first transport block allocated to a first code word and a second transport block allocated to a second code word. Each transport block includes multiple code blocks grouped into code block groups. The UE receives a negative acknowledgement indicating that a subset of the code block groups were not successfully received. The UE retransmits the subset of the code block groups on at least one of the first code word or the second code word in a retransmission in the HARQ process. At least one code block is retransmitted on a different code word in the retransmission than in the original transmission.

  • Patent number: 11589239
    Abstract: A method of efficient wideband operation for intra-band non-contiguous spectrum using extending bandwidth part (BWP) configuration is proposed. The BWP definition is extended to cluster BWPs to aggregate distributed spectrum blocks within a frequency range (e.g., 200 MHz) by single carrier operation and facilitate UE to filter out the transmission of unknown RAT between any two of the distributed spectrum blocks. In addition, the cluster BWP configuration enables dynamic aggregation of the number and location of the distributed spectrum blocks based on LBT results in unlicensed spectrum. Specifically, the BWP definition is extended to a group of one or multiple radio resource clusters, each of which contains a set of contiguous PRBs in frequency domain within the associated carrier.

    Abstract: An optical or an optoelectronic device and methods are provided for data transmission across two interconnects. First, an electrical signal is obtained from an interconnect. Next, the electrical signal is modulated. Within the modulated electrical signal, an occurrence of a transition is determined, in which a change in a power of the electrical signal by more than a threshold amount. In response to the determination of the occurrence of the transition, coefficients indicative of respective amounts of compensation to resolve or mitigate nonlinearities associated with the transition are determined. According to the coefficients, a filter is applied in a vicinity of the transition to obtain a modified electrical signal. The modified electrical signal is converted into an optical signal and coupled to a fiber to transmit the optical signal to a destination at a second interconnect.

  • Patent number: 11563615
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A transmitting device (e.g., a user equipment (UE) or base station) may reduce a peak to average power ratio (PAPR) by clipping signals transmitted to a receiving device according to a clipping level. The receiving device may receive, from the transmitting device, an indication of the clipping level associated with a reference signal. The receiving device may receive the reference signal and identify distortions based on the clipping level. The receiving device may iteratively reconstruct peaks of the clipped reference signal until the receiving device is able to obtain accurate pilot symbols for use in channel estimation. The techniques described herein may enable receiving devices to improve efficiency and reliability of communications by improving channel estimation, which may increase the probability of successfully decoding transmitted information.
