Abstract: An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with light sources that emit optical local oscillator (LO) signals onto optical paths coupled to a photomixer of an antenna. An electro-optical modulator (EOM) on an optical path may modulate one of the LO signals using an intermediate frequency signal and single sideband carrier suppression. The antenna may transmit and receive radio-frequency signals at the same frequency without adjustment to the LO signals. The frequency of the radio-frequency signals is equal to an offset between LO signals plus the frequency of the intermediate frequency signal. This may allow the device to switch between transmission and reception and/or frequencies of the radio-frequency signal without adjusting the optical LO signals, which prevents needing to re-lock the phases of the light sources and optimizes wireless performance.

Abstract: A primary device may run a software application requiring a compute task. The primary device may receive statistics from a set of secondary devices over wireless communication links. The primary device may process the statistics to determine whether the compute task will be offloaded to the secondary devices or performed locally. The primary device may generate a distribution scheme for the secondary devices based on the statistics. This may involve modeling first delays associated with transmission of signals from the primary device to the secondary devices, second delays associated with transmission of compute results from the secondary devices to the primary device, and third delays associated with processing resources of the secondary devices. The optimized distribution scheme may minimize overall runtime of the compute task given the modeled delays, scheduling grants for the secondary devices, and a radio resource allocation for the secondary devices.
