Abstract: Examples described herein include Weighted Overlap Beamform and Add techniques for calculating frequency-localized weights for adaptive beamformers. Intermediate weights are calculated for overlapping subbands (e.g., using a least-squares solution or a windowed least-squares solution). Each set of intermediate weights may be multiplied by an overlap factor, and combined to provide final weights for a subcarrier.
Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for spreading symbols over multiple time-frequency resources that rely on simple base constellations that can be sent over a frequency tone or time slot. A set of input bits (or an input symbol) are mapped to K symbols, and a symbol-to-resource-element mapping is applied that maps the K symbols to resource units. The mapping to the K symbols may be a linear mapping that maps an input symbol to K target tones through a 2K×2 real matrix, where input symbol is a complex point in a base constellation, and is considered as a 2-dimensional real vector. Up to K co-orthogonal 2K×2 real matrices (whose columns are orthogonal to each other) can be associated with the subset of K target tones. Each of the K co-orthogonal matrices can be used for mapping of an independent symbol from a separate steam of symbols which can be associated to a single UE or separate UEs.

Abstract: A method uses a controlled oscillator to output an oscillation signal in accordance with a control signal. The method operates by using a first divide-by-1.5 circuit to convert the oscillation signal into a first divided-down signal, using a second divide-by-1.5 circuit to convert the first divided-down signal into a second divided-down signal, using a divide-by-2 circuit to convert the second divided-down signal into a LO (local oscillator) signal, using a modulator to modulate the LO signal into a RF (radio frequency) signal in accordance with a baseband signal, and using a controller to establish the control signal in accordance with a relative timing between a reference signal and the oscillation signal.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for transferring data maps the data to a modulation code using an encoder circuit having a configuration. A binary symbol of the data is mapped to a modulation code having a plurality of modulation digits and a modulation signal is generated based on the modulation code. A transmitter drive signal is modulated based on the modulation signal. A configuration of the encoder circuit is set based on a determined performance level. The transmitter drive signal may be used to produce an electromagnetic field by generating a positive, negative or zero electrical current in an induction coil of a first semiconductor die. A current induced by the electromagnetic field in an induction coil of a second semiconductor die is demodulated to recover the data whereby the data is transferred from the first semiconductor die to the second semiconductor die.
