Abstract: A precoder for an effective channel linking a wireless receiver to a wireless transmitter includes a precoder report and a precoder update report, the effective channel including a propagation channel, transmit filters and receive filters. A structured frequency-selectivity of the effective channel is determined, the structured frequency-selectivity being induced by one or more long term and/or persistent parameters of the effective channel. The precoder update report is generated based on the structured frequency-selectivity. The precoder update report includes frequency-dependent phase compensation which accounts for the structured frequency-selectivity. The precoder report is generated for the effective channel based on channel state information determined for the effective channel. The precoder report and the precoder update report are transmitted to the wireless transmitter.
Abstract: A configurable passive mixer is described herein. According to one exemplary embodiment, the passive mixer comprises a clock generator, a controller, and a plurality of passive mixer cores connected in parallel. The clock generator comprises a local oscillator drive unit for each passive mixer core. The controller varies an effective transistor size of the passive mixer by separately configuring each of the passive mixer cores to enable/disable each passive mixer core. For example, the controller may selectively enable one or more of the passive mixer cores to vary the effective transistor width of the passive mixer. As the performance requirements and/or the operating communication standard change, the controller may re-configure each passive mixer core.

Abstract: Different bits in a payload of data to be transmitted from a sending application receive different classes of treatment. The payload data is divided into a first group of bits associated with a first treatment class and a second group of bits associated with a second treatment class. A first packet is created which includes the first group of bits and a first header that identifies the first packet with the first treatment class. A second packet is created that includes the second group of bits and second header that identifies the second packet with the second treatment class. Using the first header, the first packet is mapped to a first bearer that is configured to support the first treatment class. Using the second header, the second packet is mapped to a second bearer configured to support the second treatment class.
