Abstract: A Low-voltage DC-DC Converter (LDC) includes a new bidirectional isolated LDC, in which two converters with different power circuit topologies operate in parallel in order to enable both buck mode and boost mode. The two applied converters are a phase-shift full-bridge converter with full-bridge synchronous rectification and an active-clamp forward converter. According to the present invention, it is possible to achieve the advantages of both a phase-shifted full-bridge converter with full-bridge synchronous rectification applied and an active clamping forward converter. Thus, it is possible to minimize output voltage and current ripples, thereby improving the quality of the LDC output power while minimizing electromagnetic waves generated while a product is operating.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) can include processing circuitry coupled to memory. To configure the UE for New Radio (NR) communications above a 52.6 GHz carrier frequency, the processing circuitry is to decode radio resource control (RRC) signaling to obtain a cyclic shift value in time domain. The cyclic shift value is associated with a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) antenna port (AP) of a plurality of available DM-RS APs. A single carrier based waveform DM-RS sequence corresponding to the DM-RS AP is generated using a base sequence and the cyclic shift value. The single carrier based waveform DM-RS sequence is encoded with uplink data for transmission to a base station using a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) using a carrier above the 52.6 GHz carrier frequency.
