  • Patent number: 12113609
    Abstract: Simultaneous dual band operation (2.4 and 5 GHz) is common in APs on the market today, and tri-band devices are expected in the market soon. Link aggregation can also be applicable to multiple air interfaces in the same band (for instance 2 independent IEEE 802.1 lac/ax air interfaces at 5 GHz on 2 different 80 MHz channels). One exemplary aspect provides technology that enables significantly higher throughput and/or higher reliability for two stations (STAs) or a STA and the access point (AP) when the devices support simultaneous multi-band operation.

  • Publication number: 20240248162
    Abstract: One example includes a passive radar receiver system including an RF receiver front-end to receive a wireless source signal and a reflected signal. An antenna switch of the front-end switches a first antenna to a receiver chain during a first time to generate first radar signal data based on a combined wireless signal comprising wireless source signal and the reflected signal, and switches a second antenna to the receiver chain during a second time to generate second radar signal data based on the combined wireless signal. A signal processor generates source signal data associated with the wireless source signal based on the first and second radar signal data and generates reflected signal data associated with the reflected signal based on the first and second radar signal data, and generates target radar data associated with a target based on the source and reflected radar signal data.

  • Publication number: 20240243925
    Abstract: A non-transitory machine-readable medium includes machine-readable instructions for a key value generator and a certificate generator. The key value generator is executable by a processor core to concatenate a public key of a certificate issuer with a second value to form a key combination and generate a digest of the key combination to provide a key value. The certificate generator is executable by the processor core to provide a payload of a self-signed certificate for the certificate issuer, replace data in a public key field of the payload with the key value, sign the modified payload with a private key of the certificate issuer to provide a digital signature, remove the key value from the modified payload, and add the digital signature to the self-signed certificate.
