  • Patent number: 10805130
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and circuitries are disclosed for generating a desired signal from a received signal. In one example a signal cancellation system includes local oscillator (LO) downconverter circuitry, frequency offset (FO) signal estimation circuitry, and cancellation circuitry. The LO downconverter is configured to downconvert the received signal using an LO signal having an LO frequency to generate a downconverted received signal. The FO signal estimation circuitry includes FOLO generation circuitry configured to modify the LO signal to generate a FOLO signal having an offset frequency that is different from the LO frequency and FOLO downconverter circuitry configured to use the FOLO signal to downconvert a signal derived from the received signal to generate a downconverted FO signal. The cancellation circuitry is configured to cancel either the downconverted received signal or the downconverted FO signal from the received signal to generate the desired signal.

  • Patent number: 10798687
    Abstract: A network device (e.g., an evolved Node B (eNB), user equipment (UE) or the like) can operate to enable scheduling UL transmissions on transmission opportunities outside of the UL grants or for multi-carrier UL scheduling. A communication component of the device can operate to process or generate communications on an unlicensed band or a licensed band in response to UL grants and indications provided via a DL transmission for scheduling. An eNB can provide indications to a UE for processing that indicate whether a transmission opportunity is on the same transmission opportunity as the UL grants or an external/outside transmission opportunity. The indications can further trigger an listen-before-talk (LBT) protocol, which can vary between a category 4 LBT or a single LBT interval that is shorter than the category 4 LBT, depending on the indication.

  • Patent number: 10798555
    Abstract: Described herein are mechanisms to inform a first Neighbor Awareness Networking (NAN) device as to whether or not a second NAN device is connected to a dynamic frequency selection (DFS) master and/or whether the second NAN device is listening to the same DFS master as the first NAN device.
