Abstract:
Extracting a common signal from multiple audio signals may include summing a first signal and a second signal to obtain a first+second signal; subtracting the second signal from the first signal to obtain a first−second signal; transforming the first+second signal and the first−second signal to frequency domain representations; calculating absolute value of the frequency domain representations of the first+second signal and the first−second signal; subtracting the absolute value of the frequency domain representation of the first−second signal from the absolute value of the frequency domain representation of the first+second signal to obtain a difference signal; multiplying the difference signal by the frequency domain representation of the first+second signal to obtain a product signal; dividing the product signal by the absolute value of the frequency domain representation of the first+second signal to obtain a frequency domain representation of the common signal; and transforming the frequency domain representation to the common signal.

Abstract:
A technology is described for adjusting repeater gain based on user equipment need. A downlink path of the repeater can be deactivated. A deactivated throughput value can be received from the UE for data received at the UE in a selected time period. The downlink amplification path of the repeater can be activated. An activated throughput value for data received at the UE in the selected time period can be received from the UE. A difference can be determined between the deactivated throughput value and the activated throughput value. A repeater gain value can be reduced or bypassed when the deactivated throughput value is greater than the activated throughput value by a selected threshold value.
Abstract:
In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, an antenna system is described. The antenna system includes an array of antennas. Each antenna emits electromagnetic waves and is presented with a load that is different from other antennas in the array. The antenna system also includes a control system. The control system includes a single transmitter to sequentially drive antenna sets, a switching device to select, for each activation period in an activation sequence, an antenna set to be driven, and a controller. The controller determines an actual power output of each antenna and generates an adjusted control signal for the single transmitter such that the output of each antenna is controlled to match a target power for that antenna, regardless of a load for the antenna.

Abstract:
A receiver front end capable of receiving and processing intraband non-contiguous carrier aggregate (CA) signals using multiple low noise amplifiers (LNAs) is disclosed herein. A cascode having a “common source” input stage and a “common gate” output stage can be turned on or off using the gate of the output stage. A first switch is provided that allows a connection to be either established or broken between the source terminal of the input stage of each cascode. Further switches used for switching degeneration inductors, gate/sources caps and gate to ground caps for each legs can be used to further improve the matching performance of the invention.

Abstract:
A close-down pop reduction system and a method for close-down pop reduction in an audio amplifier assembly are disclosed. The switching power conversion system comprises a forward path having a compensator and a switching power stage and a signal path from an output of a comparator in the switching power stage to a sequence control unit. The signal path includes a close-down timing circuit configured to provide a timing signal. The sequence control unit is configured to eliminate the input signal, increase the switch frequency of the close-down pop reduction system and disable the switching power stage at a moment in time within a PWM pulse of the switching power stage. Hereby, it is e.g. possible to minimize the audible pop during close-down of audio amplifier assemblies.
