  • Patent number: 12081247
    Abstract: An array of antennas includes transmitter and receiver circuits. The transmitter includes a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), splitter and filter circuits, mixer circuits, and antennas. The DAC circuit converts a digital signal into an analog signal. The splitter and filter circuits separate frequencies of the analog signal into split signals. The mixer circuits multiply frequencies from the split signals by different frequencies of carrier signals to generate modulated signals that are converted by the antennas into radio frequency (RF) signals. The receiver includes antennas, mixer circuits, a summing circuit, and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The antennas in the receiver receive RF signals that are converted into electrical signals. The mixer circuits multiply frequencies from the electrical signals with different frequencies of carrier signals. The outputs of the mixer circuits are summed by the summing circuit to generate a summed signal that is converted to digital by the ADC.

  • Patent number: 11983624
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing an auto generation and tuning tool for convolution kernels are disclosed. A processor executes multiple tuning runs of a given layer of a neural network while using a different set of operating parameter values for each tuning run. The operating parameters can include one or more of input dataset fetch group size, output channel group size, and other parameters. The processor captures performance data for each tuning run and then after all tuning runs have finished, the processor determines which set of operating parameter values resulted in a better performance for the given neural network layer. The processor uses these operating parameter values for subsequent iterations of the given layer. The processor also performs the same techniques for other layers to determine which set of operating parameter values to use for each layer so as to maximize performance of the neural network.
