  • Patent number: 11212702
    Abstract: The present technology relates to a signal processing apparatus and method which are able to suppress a reduction in reception sensitivity. A reception signal is compressed so as to have a predetermined signal level or lower, and transmission data transmitted from a transmitter side and included in the reception signal compressed so as to have the signal level or lower is decoded. For example, an approximate replica signal reproducing large amplitude changes of the reception signal is generated, and the approximate replica signal is subtracted from the reception signal to compress the reception signal so as to have the signal level or lower. The present disclosure is applicable to, for example, a signal processing apparatus, a reception apparatus, a transmission/reception apparatus, a communication apparatus, an information processing apparatus, an electronic device, a computer, a program, a storage medium, a system, and so on.

  • Patent number: 11202225
    Abstract: Performance of a communications device with a processor, a memory, and a SIM in a wireless communication network is tested to provide a range of QoS KPIs. A test server sends a payload to the device modem, the size of which has been computed to avoid adversely affecting real time performance. The modem uses the payload to fill a buffer of restricted size in the memory, the buffer being smaller than the payload. The modem processor signals the SIM to indicate that data is available in the buffer, and the SIM instructs the processor to purge the buffer. There are repeated cycles until all of the payload has been written to the buffer and purged. The buffer signals the test server to indicate that all of the payload has been written to the buffer and purged, and the server determines a time duration from initial download of the payload to final purging as a downlink performance indicator.

  • Patent number: 11196677
    Abstract: A heterogeneous multi-protocol stack system including a plurality of heterogeneous protocol stack instances is described. Resource allocation between the protocol stack instances is unbalanced, and algorithms are independently configured, so that QoS capacities of different protocol stack instances are different. Data packets of applications or connections with different QoS requirements can be dispatched by a dispatcher to corresponding protocol stack instances at a high speed. When system resources are limited, the heterogeneous multi-protocol stack system is capable of simultaneously supporting classification optimization processing performed on data of a high-concurrency application, a high-throughput application, and a low-delay application, so as to meet QoS requirements of different types of applications, thereby improving user experience.

  • Patent number: 11128413
    Abstract: Currently, wideband channel simulation/emulation is carried out through channel realizations obtained from dispersion functions dictated by communication standards, in order to perform the tests and validation of the new data communication schemes. However, the channel models available in the state of the art only consider the simulation/emulation of stationary channels with separable dispersion characteristics, allowing only the treatment of unrealistic channels. The present invention describes and details a method and apparatus for performing the channel simulation/emulation in scenarios where the channel is doubly selective, i.e., selective in time and frequency, where the simulation/emulation is of an arbitrarily long duration, and for a channel that is locally non-stationary in time, not stationary in frequency and with a non-separable dispersion function.
