Abstract: A timing detection device includes a main reference code generation module, an auxiliary reference code generation module, a first correlation processing module, a second correlation processing module, and a subtraction module. The main reference code generation module generates a main reference code consisting of the same code for synchronization included in a received signal. Using a portion of the same code as the code for synchronization, the auxiliary reference code generation module generates an auxiliary reference code consisting of a code configuration different from the main reference code and without generating a main lobe during correlation processing. The first correlation processing module correlates the received signal with the main reference code and outputs a first correlation result. The second correlation processing module correlates the received signal with the auxiliary reference code and outputs a second correlation result.

Abstract: Bayesian Inference based communication receiver employs Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) sampling for performing several of the main receiver functionalities. The channel estimator estimates the multipath channel coefficients corresponding to a signal received with fading. The symbol demodulator demodulates the received signal according to a QAM constellation, so as to generate a demodulated signal, and estimate the transmitted symbols. The decoder reliably decodes the demodulated signals to generate an output bit sequence, factoring in redundancy induced at a certain code rate. A universal sampler may be configured to use MCMC sampling for generating estimates of channel coefficients, transmitted symbols or decoder bits, for aforementioned functionalities, respectively. The samples may then be used in one or more of the receiver tasks: channel estimation, signal demodulation, and decoding, which leads to a more scalable, reusable, power/area efficient receiver.

Abstract: To reduce power consumption, a user equipment (UE) may trigger a microsleep in a subframe when a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) does not include a downlink grant. However, because the microsleep depends on the PDCCH not including a downlink grant, the UE cannot trigger the microsleep until after the PDCCH is decoded. Accordingly, in some aspects, a UE may enable an aggressive extra microsleep in which a microsleep duration may be increased by reducing a PDCCH decode time. For example, a UE may use a stale channel estimate and noise estimate from a previous subframe to perform PDCCH demapping when conditions related to a PDCCH block error rate are satisfied. In this way, removing channel estimation and noise estimation from a PDCCH demapping path may reduce the PDCCH decode time, whereby the UE may trigger a microsleep sooner to increase a sleep ratio and thereby increase power savings.

The apparatus includes a vector detection unit, configured to: when a first signal is fed at the first endpoint and a second signal is fed at the second endpoint, respectively detect a plurality of signal vectors based on a plurality of feedback signals of the first transmission channel and the second transmission channel; and a processing unit, configured to determine a deviation correction value between the first transmission channel and the second transmission channel based on the detected signal vectors.
Abstract: A method of transmitting data via a unipolar signal comprises allocating a symbol to one or more signals among a plurality of signals, applying pulse shaping to the plurality of signals to obtain a plurality of filtered signals, wherein the filtered signals are orthogonal signals, and transmitting the sum of the filtered signals as a unipolar signal, wherein the transmitted signal is a weighted sum of the filtered signals. The data can be recovered at the receiver by applying a plurality of orthogonal matched filters to the received unipolar signal to obtain a plurality of filtered signals, and performing symbol detection on the plurality of filtered signals to determine the received symbol. Apparatus for transmitting and receiving unipolar signals are also disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for classifying baseband signals with respect to modulation type include receiving, at a consolidated neural network whose objective is modulation classification performance, a complex quadrature vector of interest including multiple samples of a baseband signal derived from a radio frequency signal of unknown modulation type, generating multiple data representations of the vector of interest, providing each data representation to one of multiple parallel neural networks in the consolidated neural network, and receiving a classification result for the baseband signal based on combined outputs of the parallel neural networks.
