    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to facilitate target wake time management between access points and devices. An example station based apparatus to facilitate target wake time operations between an access point and the station includes a data manager to determine at least one of a quantity of uplink data to be sent by the station or a quantity of downlink data to be received by the station, a connection manager to schedule a connection of the station to a device different than the access point, and a target wake time negotiator in communication with a component interface to at least one of receive a signal from or distribute a signal to the access point, the signal to modify a service period of the target wake time based on at least one of the quantity of uplink data, the quantity of downlink data, or the scheduled connection.

    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a transformer-based impedance matching network that may dynamically change its characteristic impedance by engaging different inductor branches on a primary side and optionally, on the secondary side. A primary side transformer circuit includes a primary inductor (311) and secondary inductor (321) configured to provide impedance matching over a first frequency band. One or more additional inductor branches (314A, 314B, are switchably coupled to either or both of the primary and secondary inductors to modify the impedance matching characteristics over additional operating frequencies. One or more LC filter branches (321, 322, 326, 327, 336, 330) can be included at the output of the secondary side to filter harmonic frequencies in each of the operating frequency bands.

    Abstract: Provided herein are a method and an apparatus for blind detection of Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) and Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) using UE-specific reference signals. In an embodiment, the disclosure provides an apparatus for a UE, comprising circuitry configured to: measure a UE-specific Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) associated with a PDCCH; compute a first measurement metric M1 based on the UE-specific DMRS associated with the PDCCH before decoding the PDCCH; decode the PDCCH based on the first measurement metric M1; and decode PDSCH based on the decoded PDCCH. The disclosure may further, based on the corresponding PDCCH DMRS and/or PDSCH DMRS, determine if a PDSCH grant in a decoded PDCCH is valid or not, detect a repeated PDSCH grant in a slot, and detect cross-slot DMRS phase continuity between continuous slots.

    Abstract: What is disclosed is a method for wireless communication comprising receiving a wireless communication via a receiver of the mobile communication device, deriving a demodulation reference signal from a first plurality of symbols of the wireless communication; creating a channel estimation matrix using the demodulation reference signal; inverting the channel estimation matrix to obtain a channel pseudo-inverse matrix; deriving a tracking reference signal from a second plurality of symbols of the wireless communication; calculating a phase shift for one or more additional symbols based on the tracking reference signal; determining a corrected channel pseudo-inverse matrix for the one or more additional symbols by adjusting the channel pseudo-inverse matrix according to the calculated phase shift; and controlling the receiver to accomplish data detection using the corrected channel pseudo-inverse matrix on one or more orthogonal frequency division multiplexing subcarriers.

    Abstract: A switched capacitor digital power amplifier (DPA) or a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is disclosed. The DPA/DAC includes a plurality of switched capacitor cells connected in parallel. Each switched capacitor cell includes a capacitor and a switch. The switch selectively drives the capacitor in response to an input digital codeword. The switched capacitor cells are divided into sub-arrays and a series capacitor is inserted in series between two adjacent sub-arrays of switched capacitor cells. All the sub-arrays of switched capacitor cells may be in a unary-coded structure. Alternatively, at least one of the sub-arrays may be in a C-2C structure and at least one another sub-array may be in a unary-coded structure. The switch in the switched capacitor cells is driven by a local oscillator signal, and a phase correction buffer may be added for adjusting a delay of the local oscillator signal supplied to sub-arrays of switched capacitor cells.
