    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for dynamically biasing power amplifiers. In particular, dynamic biasing of a power amplifier may be controlled, with the controlling comprising receiving an input signal that is to be amplified; processing the input signal; generating based on said processing of the input signal input signal, a plurality of control signals comprising at least one biasing control signal; and applying the plurality of control signals to one or more control elements that are used in driving and/or control of the power amplifier. The one or more control elements may comprise at least one biasing component that adjusts biasing applied to power amplifier.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for a configurable low-noise amplifier with programmable band-selection filters may comprise a receiver with a low-noise amplifier (LNA) with differential output terminals; a low pass filter operably coupled to the LNA; a high pass filter operably coupled to the second input terminal of the LNA; and a signal source input coupled to the low pass filter and the high pass filter. The LNA may be operable to receive signals in a pass band of the high pass filter and a pass band of the low pass filter. The receiver may be operable to amplify input signals in the pass band of a first filter but not signals in the pass band of the second filter by operably coupling the second to ground.

    Abstract: A system comprises a microwave backhaul outdoor unit having a first resonant circuit, phase error determination circuitry, and phase error compensation circuitry. The first resonant circuit is operable to generate a first signal characterized by a first amount of phase noise and a first amount of temperature stability. The phase error determination circuitry is operable to generate a phase error signal indicative of phase error between the first signal and a second signal, wherein the second signal is characterized by a second amount of phase noise that is greater than the first amount of phase noise, and the second signal is characterized by a second amount of temperature instability that is less than the first amount of temperature instability. The phase error compensation circuitry is operable to adjust the phase of a data signal based on the phase error signal, the adjustment resulting in a phase compensated signal.

    Abstract: Aspects of a method and system for a successive approximation analog-to-digital converter with dynamic search algorithms are provided. In some embodiments, a successive approximation analog-to-digital converter includes a digital-to-analog converter, a comparator, and a search and decode logice modules which cooperate to generate a digital output code representative of the analog input voltage based on a dynamic search algorithm. The dynamic search algorithms may alter a sequence of reference voltages used to successively approximate the analog input voltage based on one or more characteristics of the analog input voltage.

    Abstract: A signal processing circuit, which is within a satellite reception assembly, may be operable to analyze actual frequency information corresponding to a plurality of downconverted signals. Each of the downconverted signals may be downconverted using one or more corresponding local oscillators (LOs). Based on the analyzing, one or more of the following may be determined: one or more frequency offsets associated with the one or more corresponding LOs and one or more actual guard bands. The signal processing circuit may generate information on the determined frequency offsets and the determined actual guard bands. The signal processing circuit may perform, based on the generated information, one or both of a band stacking operation and a channel stacking operation so as to prevent channels/bands being stacked on each other or being overlapped. The signal processing circuit may perform, based on the generated information, frequency corrections for channel tuning in a gateway.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for a configurable low-noise amplifier with programmable band-selection filters may comprise a low-noise amplifier (LNA) with a low pass filter coupled to a first input of the LNA and a high pass filter coupled to a second input of the LNA. The low pass filter and the high pass filter may also be coupled to a signal source input. Signals may be received in a pass band of the high pass filter and a pass band of the low pass filter. Input signals in the pass band of the one filter (but not signals in the pass band of the other filter) may be amplified by coupling the one input of the LNA to ground and coupling the other filter to ground utilizing a shunt resistor. The filters may be configurable and may each comprise at least one inductor and at least one capacitor.
