  • Patent number: 11139934
    Abstract: Embodiments provide a method for transmitting a reference signal between a base station and a terminal. In this method, a parameter is determined by a terminal based on frequency domain location information of a frequency domain resource unit. The parameter is used to determine a sequence of the reference signal, and the reference signal is carried on the frequency domain resource unit. The reference signal can be sent to the base station by the terminal. In some embodiments, the reference signal sent by the base station can be received by the terminal. According to this method, a peak-to-average power ratio when a single terminal sends data to a base station can be reduced, and communication interference between different cells can be canceled or reduced as much as possible.

  • Patent number: 11112306
    Abstract: An optical signal analyzing apparatus enables real-time and single-shot analysis simultaneously in both time and frequency domains with spectro-temporal analysis. The apparatus includes a fiber tap coupler for receiving an input optical signal from continuous wave (CW) to ultra-short pulses (femtosecond-picosecond). An optical splitter directs part of the signal to a frequency channel and part to a time channel A photodiode in the time channel directly monitors the intensity evolution and converts it to an electrical signal. In the frequency channel, two sub-channels are provided: one for CW/quasi-CW and one for short-pulse components. A signal processor analyses the time- and frequency-domain data from the time channel and frequency channel and displays the temporal and spectral evolutions simultaneously, so that the two different pieces of information of a non-repeated dynamic event can be correlated in different domains.
