Abstract: A controller generating a knowledge graph of entries, each entry comprising a separate entity identifier and a separate entity mention identifier within a separate document of a corpus of documents with a located relationship and one or more computed prefix-based geotemporal values determined from geotemporal information associated with the separate entity mention identifier within the separate document. The controller, in response to receiving an input comprising a particular entity and a threshold value, mapping the threshold value to a geospatial hash prefix type and a temporal hash prefix type. The controller applying geospatial hash prefix type and the temporal hash prefix type to the entries in the knowledge graph to determine a response to the input indicating one or more geotemporal proximate entities identified within a degree of geotemporal proximity to the particular entity set by the threshold value.

Abstract: A radar sensing system includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter is configured to transmit a radio signal. The receiver is configured to receive radio signals that include the transmitted radio signal reflected from objects in the environment. The transmitter and receiver are configured to distribute the signal power over frequency so that it is separated from noise and impairments at DC and low frequencies as may be caused by some radar system components which introduce DC offsets and/or low frequency (e.g. flicker) noise.

Abstract: A controller, responsive to detecting geospatial and temporal information associated with a mention of an entity in a document, for converting the geospatial information into a specified geospatial format and the temporal information into a specified temporal format. The controller for computing prefix-based geospatial values for the converted geospatial information and prefix-based temporal values for the converted temporal information. The controller for encoding an entry in a knowledge graph for the mention of the entity from the document with the prefix-based geospatial values and the prefix-based temporal values, wherein each digit of the prefix-based geospatial values and the prefix-based temporal values in the knowledge graph that matches another one or more prefix-based geospatial values and another one or more prefix-based temporal values in another entry for another entity mention in the knowledge graph reflects a degree of granularity of geotemporal proximity of the entity and the another entity.

Abstract: Radio-frequency (RF) apparatus includes receiver analog circuitry that receives an RF signal and provides at least one digital signal to receiver digital circuitry that functions in cooperation with the receiver analog circuitry. The receiver analog circuitry and the receiver digital circuitry are partitioned so that interference effects between the receiver analog circuitry and the receiver digital circuitry tend to be reduced.

Abstract: Components of a radio-frequency (RF) apparatus including transceiver circuitry and frequency modification circuitry of a crystal oscillator circuit that generates a reference signal with adjustable frequency may be partitioned in a variety of ways, for example, as one or more separate integrated circuits. The frequency modification circuitry may be implemented as part of a crystal oscillator circuit that includes digitally controlled crystal oscillator (“DCXO”) circuitry and a crystal. The frequency modification circuitry may include at least one variable capacitance device and may be employed to generate a reference signal with adjustable frequency. The adjustable reference signal may be provided to other components of the RF apparatus and/or the RF apparatus may be configured to provide the adjustable reference signal to baseband processor circuitry.

Abstract: A radio-frequency (RF) receiver includes a receiver analog circuitry and a receiver digital circuitry. The receiver analog circuitry resides within a first integrated circuit and the receiver digital circuitry resides within a second integrated circuit. The second integrated circuit couples to the first integrated circuit via a one-bit digital interface. The receiver analog circuitry receives an RF signal and processes the received RF signal to generate a digital signal. The receiver analog circuitry provides the digital signal to the receiver digital circuitry. The receiver digital circuitry includes a digital down-converter circuitry that mixes the digital signal with an intermediate frequency (IF) local oscillator (LO) signal to generate a digital down-converted signal. The receiver digital circuitry also includes a digital filter circuitry that filters the digital down-converted signal to generate a filtered digital signal.

Abstract: A wireless communication system is provided that detects a frequency burst (FB) through analysis of the autocorrelation function of received signals. The system can accommodate the relatively large frequency offsets that are associated with less expensive reference frequency crystals. In one embodiment, the system includes FB search hardware that operates in two modes, namely an FB location mode with narrowband interference (e.g. CW or continuous wave) detection and an FB location mode without such narrowband interference detection, depending on whether a CW signal (carrier or other narrowband interferer) is present or not.

Abstract: A wireless communication system is provided that detects a frequency burst (FB) through analysis of the autocorrelation function of received signals. The system can accommodate the relatively large frequency offsets that are associated with less expensive reference frequency crystals. The system employs a multi-mode filter including an FB filter and a channelization filter. In one embodiment, the FB filter is employed until an FB is located and then, once the FB is located, the channelization filter is employed to receive signals.
