  • Patent number: 9532272
    Abstract: Communications apparatus includes first and second radio modules and an antenna array coupled to the first and the second radio modules and includes multiple antennas. When the first and the second radio modules operate at the same time, the first radio module negotiates with a first communications device an amount of antenna(s) to be used by a first message, so that the first radio module operates with the amount of the antenna(s) and second radio module operates with at least one of the remaining antenna(s).

  • Patent number: 8838046
    Abstract: A hybrid FDM/TDM solution for in-device coexistence interference avoidance is proposed. A user equipment (UE) comprises a first radio transceiver and a second co-located radio transceiver. The UE detects coexistence interference between the two radios based on radio signal measurement. The UE sends an IDC interference indicator to its serving base station (eNB). The UE also reports IDC information including recommendation for FDM and TDM configurations to the eNB. The eNB receives the IDC interference indicator and evaluates whether to trigger FDM-based solution to mitigate the coexistence interference. The eNB also evaluates whether to trigger TDM-based solution to mitigate coexistence interference. The evaluation is based on the recommended FDM and TDM configurations. The eNB may trigger FDM-based solution, TDM-based solution, or FDM and TDM solution based on the evaluation results of the feasibility and effectiveness of each solution.

  • Publication number: 20140134889
    Abstract: A universal serial bus (USB) receptacle includes a core part and a conducting layer. The core part of the USB receptacle has a plurality of signal pads on a first side of the core part. The conducting layer is disposed on a second side of the core part of the USB receptacle. The second side of the core part of the USB receptacle is opposite to the first side of the core part. An associated USB plug is also provided. The USB plug includes a core part and a conducting layer. The core part of the USB plug has a plurality of signal pads on a first side of the core part of the USB plug. The conducting layer is disposed on a second side of the core part. The second side of the core part of the USB plug is opposite to the first side of the core part.

  • Patent number: 8412093
    Abstract: A satellite receiver for receiving at least a target satellite signal includes a channel selection filter and a controller. The channel selection filter is provided with a plurality of channel selection settings conforming to characteristics of a plurality of satellite signals corresponding to different satellite systems, wherein each of the channel selection settings is to receive at least one of the satellite signals. The controller controls the channel selection filter to enable a target channel selection setting selected from the channel selection settings to thereby receive at least the target satellite signal.

  • Patent number: 8331894
    Abstract: A method for performing active jammer suppression on an electronic device includes: performing down conversion on a received signal having in-band interference, in order to obtain at least one down-converted received signal; performing down conversion on a jammer signal derived from a jammer source causing the in-band interference, in order to obtain at least one down-converted jammer signal; adjusting a phase and/or an amplitude of the down-converted jammer signal to obtain a jammer suppression signal; and performing jammer suppression according to the down-converted received signal and the jammer suppression signal. An apparatus for performing the active jammer suppression on the electronic device includes a received-signal down converter, at least one jammer down converter, and at least one adjustment module. In particular, the adjustment module is arranged to iteratively adjust the phase and/or the amplitude of the down-converted jammer signal to obtain an optimal version of the jammer suppression signal.
