Abstract: A noise reduction signal generator is provided. The noise reduction signal generator includes a comparator, a conversion circuit, and a low pass filter circuit. The comparator receives an input signal and a reference signal and compares the input signal and the reference signal to generate a first pulse width modulation (PWM) signal. A pulse width of the first PWM signal is correlated to a comparison result between a signal intensity of the input signal and a signal intensity of the reference signal. The conversion circuit converts the first PWM signal to a second PWM signal. A phase of the second PWM signal is different from a phase of the first PWM signal. The low pass filter circuit performs a filtering operation on the second PWM signal to generate a noise inversion signal. The noise inversion signal is configured to reduce noise of the input signal.

Abstract: A near-field communication (NFC) antenna structure for radiation enhancement of a computing device that includes a ferrite sheet, separated into two sections. The NFC antenna structure may be used to improve (i) the magnetic field strength generated by an NFC antenna and (ii) inductive coupling to a receiving antenna of another computing device. A first ferrite section may be placed on a first side of the NFC antenna to at least partially overlap the NFC antenna, and a second ferrite section may be placed on a second side (opposite the first side) to at least partially overlap the NFC antenna. The first ferrite section may be positioned towards a top end that is often positioned closest to a receiving device, as held by a user when performing a contactless communication of the computing device, to increase the magnetic field strength and improve the inductive coupling at the top end.

The combination or shape of the angles of the NFC coil, as well as NFC coil position relative to the WLC coil, may be optimized to reduce coupling between the NFC coil and the WLC coil.
