    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for estimation a wireless channel are disclosed. For example, the method correlates, by a correlator, a plurality of signals of a combined signal received by a receive antenna over the wireless channel from a plurality of transmit antennas, with respective DMRSs of the plurality of transmit antennas, converts, by a converter, the correlated plurality of signals from frequency to time domain, iteratively peak cancels, by a peak canceller, a largest peak of the combined impulse response and stores a scaling factor and location pair of the cancelled peak until a magnitude of a next largest peak is below a predetermined threshold, assigns, by an assigner, each of the scaling factor and location pairs to a transmit antenna, and estimates, by an estimator, for each of the plurality of transmit antennas, the wireless channel based on the assigned scaling factor and location pairs.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for the use of Crest Factor Reduction (CFR) technique that utilizes a cancellation pulse signal having a reduced length. The CFR technique may be applied to a signal to be transmitted, which may comprise a composite signal having one or more carrier signals. Each carrier signal of the composite signal may be filtered via a respective channel filter and then recombined to form the signal to be transmitted, on which the CFR operations are then applied. The length of the cancellation pulse signal is less than the number of taps of the channel filter with the largest number of taps. This reduction in cancellation pulse signal length significantly reduces the processing power required to perform the CFR operations while maintaining regulatory emissions compliance.

    Abstract: Input circuitry for an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is provided. The input circuitry includes a calibration signal source configured to output a calibration signal for the ADC and an analog circuitry configured to receive and process an analog input signal for the ADC. The analog circuitry is further configured to generate a combined signal by combining the analog input signal and the calibration signal. The input circuitry further includes a buffer amplifier coupled to the analog circuitry and configured to supply a buffered signal to the ADC based on the combined signal. Further, the input circuitry includes neutralization circuitry configured to generate, based on the calibration signal, a neutralization signal for mitigating an unwanted signal component related to a limited reverse isolation of the analog circuitry. The neutralization circuitry is further configured to supply the neutralization signal to at least one of an input node and an intermediate node of the analog circuitry.
