Patent number: 9722729Abstract: A powerline communication (PLC) device can be configured to execute functionality for zero cross sampling and detection. When the PLC device is directly coupled to a high-voltage PLC network, the PLC device can comprise printed safety capacitors in series with a high-voltage input AC powerline signal to safely couple the high-voltage AC powerline signal to the low-voltage processing circuit. The PLC device can also comprise an ADC to sample a scaled AC powerline signal and to obtain zero cross information. When the PLC device is part of an embedded PLC application, dynamic loading can affect the integrity of a low voltage zero cross signal that is used to extract zero cross information. After digitizing the zero cross signal, the PLC device can execute functionality to minimize/eliminate voltage drops caused by dynamic loading and obtain the zero cross information.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2013Date of Patent: August 1, 2017Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Gregory Allen Magin, Faisal Mahmood Shad, Lawrence Winston Yonge, III, Sanjay Kasturia, Niranjan Anand Talwalkar

Patent number: 9166577Abstract: A clock modulator can include two configurable delay units and can receive a baseband signal and a clock signal. The two configurable delay units can generate two delayed clock signals, each with different delay amounts. The delay amounts can be based on the baseband signal. The delayed clock signals can be combined to generate a modulated clock signal. A quadrature modulated clock signal can be generated when a first clock modulator receives a first baseband signal and a first clock signal and a second clock modulator receives a second baseband signal and a second clock signal. The first clock signal can be a ninety-degree phase shifted version of the second clock signal. The modulated clock signal from the first clock modulator can be combined with the modulated clock signal from the second clock modulator to generate the quadrature modulated clock signal.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2014Date of Patent: October 20, 2015Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Niranjan Anand Talwalkar, Sanjay Kasturia

Patent number: 9014300Abstract: A QAM transmitter is disclosed that may reduce the frequency of local clock signals and/or reduce the switching frequency of driver circuits when generating a QAM output signal for transmission. The QAM transmitter may generate a number of PWM signals indicative of in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) signal components, and then use one or more selected even-order harmonics of the PWM signals to generate the QAM output signal.

Patent number: 7782852Abstract: A device and method of high-speed transmission is disclosed. The method includes computing a signal quality of a received signal, the received signal being transmitted with a modulation order required by a default transmission modulation format.
