  • Patent number: 9369217
    Abstract: An interfering signal from a co-running modem is filtered using a notch filter to cancel high frequency harmonic interference to a received radio frequency (RF) signal. Thereafter, a metric scaling and tone nulling are performed in the received RF signal to further eliminate residual harmonic frequencies.

  • Publication number: 20160119842
    Abstract: Embodiments of system, device, and method configurations for managing inter-radio access technology (inter-RAT) mobility of handovers between a UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN) or GSM EDGE Radio Access Network (GERAN) and an evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) to avoid scenarios of in-device coexistence (IDC) interference are disclosed herein. In one example, the existence and types of IDC interference with an E-UTRAN Long Term Evolution (LTE)/Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) network are determined and communicated to the UTRAN/GERAN in an IDC indication signal. The IDC indication signal may communicate the existence and type of IDC interference occurring at user equipment, such as between licensed LTE/LTE-A and unlicensed industrial scientific medical (ISM) radio frequency bands. Accordingly, the UTRAN/GERAN may use information provided from the IDC indication signal to prevent a handover to the E-UTRAN that would result in IDC interference.

  • Publication number: 20160094322
    Abstract: Methods, devices and systems for dynamic scheduling of Bluetooth signals based at least in part on LTE schedules are disclosed. In some examples, Bluetooth can deduce information on the LTE DL/UL activity based at least in part on the LTE frame structure, LTE decision point or the LTE subframe boundary time. In some examples, Bluetooth scheduler can dynamically change the timing of the scheduling algorithm such that it may utilize the knowledge of LTE traffic and may at least partially avoid interference or evaluate the interference level.

  • Patent number: 8923461
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention relates to a communication system having a digital to analog converter, a first input, a summation component, a compensation filter, and a compensation unit. The converter is configured to receive a first signal. The first input is configured to receive a phase modulation signal. The compensation filter generates a filtered frequency deviation signal to mitigate frequency distortions, such as those from a digital controlled oscillator. The compensation unit includes one or more inputs and is configured to generate a correction signal according to the filtered frequency deviation signal and the first signal. The correction signal at least partially accounts for estimated distortions of the phase modulation signal from the amplitude modulation path and mitigates frequency induced distortions. The summation component is configured to receive the phase modulation signal and the correction signal and to generate a corrected phase modulation signal as a result.
