Abstract: A system filters out-of-band radio frequency emissions generated by wireless transmission of a first signal by a first transmitter from a wireless transmission of a second transmitter. The first signal is communicated from the first transmitter to the second transmitter via one or more wired connections. An out-of-band portion of a modulated format of the first signal is inverted to generate an inverted out-of-band component signal. The inverted out-of-band component signal is combined with a second signal of the second transmitter to create a filtering second signal. The filtering second signal is wirelessly transmitted from the second transmitter concurrently with wireless transmission of the first signal by the first transmitter, wherein the wireless transmission of the inverted out-of-band component signal in the filtering second signal by the second transmitter is synchronized with the wireless transmission of the first signal by the first transmitter.

Abstract: A radiofrequency (RF) power regulator includes a forward RF power detection circuit to detect forward RF power supplied by an RF transmitter circuit to an RF transmitting antenna. An RF power sampler is coupled to the forward RF power detector circuit and provides RF power samples of the supplied forward RF power. Multiple filters are coupled to receive the RF power samples. Each filter differently filters the received forward power samples to apply a different average power period. Each filter activates an RF power adjustment trigger signal while a time-averaged forward RF power supplied to the RF transmitting antenna satisfies a forward RF power adjustment condition for the average power period of the filter. Forward RF power adjustment logic is coupled to filters and operable to adjust the forward RF power supplied by the RF transmitter circuit to the RF transmitting antenna based on the RF power adjustment trigger signal.

Abstract: Radio Frequency (RF) power back-off optimization techniques are described for specific absorption rate (SAR) compliance. A mobile device may be configured to intelligently modify antennas and radio device transmission levels to maintain compliance with SAR limits while minimally perturbing radio operations. The mobile device may implement a SAR optimization scheme that accounts for user presence and signal conditions to maintain compliance. Rather than setting a fixed back-off, user presence detectors may be employed along with information on current signal conditions to determine potential for excessive SAR exposure and selectively apply variable adjustments to RF transmission power (e.g., “back-offs”), accordingly. The mobile device may also be configured to report SAR conditions and/or mitigation actions to a base station to enable the base station to manage a connection to services based at least in part upon knowledge of SAR actions taken by the mobile computing device.

A mechanical joint connects the first computing device portion and the second computing device portion such that the first side is positioned to face the third side and the electromagnetic coil overlaps the first through-slot and the second through-slot along an axis running orthogonal to the first computing device portion and the second computing device portion. Control circuitry adjusts matching to compensate different physical configurations, and firmware switches the radiofrequency configuration.

Abstract: The claimed subject matter includes techniques for performing power reduction for specific absorption rate (SAR) compliance. An example method includes receiving sensor inputs indicative of potential for non-compliance with SAR limits at a mobile device. The example method includes processing the sensor inputs to generate a SAR action table index. A look-up is performed in a SAR action table using the SAR action table index to obtain SAR data. The SAR data identifies SAR actions to be performed individually for each antenna of each wireless endpoint of the mobile computing device based on the plurality of sensor inputs. The SAR data may be sent to each of the wireless endpoints. Each of the wireless endpoints is to select an amount of power reduction to implement for each of the antennas associated with the wireless endpoint to maintain SAR compliance in response to the SAR data.
