Patent number: 11936599Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A receiving device and a transmitting device may utilize index modulation for full-duplex operations. The transmitting device, such as a base station or a user equipment (UE), may define blocks of resource elements (REs) for transmissions. The transmitting device may then transmit a power boosted index modulated signal at a data RE location within a resource allocation and may skip transmitting within the remaining REs of the resource allocation. The transmitting device may indicate the number of REs per RE block to the receiving device (e.g., a UE). The receiving device may use this information to perform energy detection for determining which REs within an RE block include the power boosted index modulated transmission and which REs within the RE block are empty REs. In some cases, the receiving device may use the empty REs for performing noise estimation.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Idan Michael Horn, Assaf Touboul, Shay Landis

Patent number: 11929824Abstract: An outdoor satellite receiving unit (ODU) receives several independent satellite signals, selects two signals with a switch matrix, downconverts the two signals to a bandstacked signal with a high and a low band signal, and outputs the bandstacked signal on the same cable to receiver units. Several satellite signals can be selected in groups of two or more and output to independent receiver units. Signal selecting is performed at the received radio frequency (RF) and bandstacking is performed with a single downconversion step to an intermediate frequency (IF). Channel stacking on the same cable of more than two channels from several satellites can be achieved by using frequency agile downconverters and bandpass filters prior to combining at the IF output. A slow transitioning switch minimizes signal disturbances when switching and maintains input impedance at a constant value.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2023Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: Entropic Communications, LLCInventors: Branislav Petrovic, Dale Hancock, Jeremy Goldblatt, Keith Bargroff

Patent number: 11881977Abstract: This application proposes multi-beam antenna systems using spherical lens with high isolation between antenna ports and compatible to 2×2, 4×4, 8×8 MIMO transceivers. Several compact multi-band multi-beam solutions (with wideband operation, 40%+, in each band) are achieved by creating dual-band radiators movable on the track around spherical lens and by placing of lower band radiators between spherical lenses. By using of secondary lens for high band radiators, coupling between low band and high band radiators is reduced. Beam tilt range and side lobe suppression are improved by special selection of phase shift and rotational angle of radiators. Resultantly, a wide beam tilt range (0-40 degree) is realized in proposed multi-beam antenna systems. Each beam can be individually tilted. Based on proposed single- and multi-lens antenna solutions, cell coverage improvements and stadium tribune coverage optimization are also achieved, together with interference reduction.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2023Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: Matsing, Inc.Inventors: Serguei Matitsine, Igor Timofeev, Leonid Matytsine, Anthony DeMarco
