Electronic devices may be provided that contain wireless communication circuitry. The wireless communication circuitry may include radio-frequency transceiver circuitry coupled to multiple antennas. An electronic device may alternate between a sleep mode and a wake mode. During wake mode, the electronic device may monitor a paging channel in a wireless network for incoming paging signals. The device may use a selected one of the multiple antennas in monitoring the paging channel. If received signal quality is satisfactory, the device may maintain use of the selected one of the multiple antennas for subsequent wake period monitoring of the paging channel. If received signal quality falls below a threshold or is otherwise indicated to not be satisfactory, the device may switch to use of a different one of the multiple antennas in monitoring the paging channel. Other criteria may also be used in controlling the switching between antennas for paging channel monitoring.

Slaves are respectively provided corresponding to electric devices, measure, in real time, power usage states and disposed positions of the electric devices to transmit to a master. The master detects operational states of electric devices on operation based on power usage states received from the slaves, and detects a positional relation between electric devices on operation based on disposed positions of the electric devices. Then, the master estimates the number of residents in the house by determining achievability of operational states of electric devices based on the detected operational states and positional relation of electric devices.

Certain embodiments of the present disclosure allow a receiver to utilize both a minimum mean square error (MMSE) detection algorithm and a maximum likelihood (ML) detection algorithm. The receiver may control, based on various conditions, a mode selection signal to select between output generated with the MMSE detection algorithm and the ML detection algorithm. By sharing logical components, certain embodiments may allow a receiver to implement both ML and MMSE detection algorithms with minimal computational overhead when compared to implementing a single one of the decoding algorithms.

Managing radio resources across dual networks includes a wireless mobile device connecting to a first wireless network using a first radio access technology. The wireless device may notify the first network of a capability to be temporarily non-responsive to the first network while maintaining a signaling connection to the first network. The wireless device may communicate with a second network. The wireless device may return to communicating with the first network subsequent to communicating with the second network, and in response to communicating with the second network for less than a predetermined amount of time, the wireless device may send a scheduling request to the first network. In response to receiving a grant acknowledgement from the first network, the wireless device may send a buffer status report that includes a value such as zero to indicate that the wireless device has returned to and can communicate with the first network.

Electronic devices may be provided that contain wireless communication circuitry. The wireless communication circuitry may include radio-frequency transceiver circuitry coupled to first and second antennas. An electronic device may send network access probe signals to a base station in a wireless network. If the base station responds with a corresponding acknowledgement, the electronic device and base station may establish a wireless communication link such as a cellular telephone link. In response to failure to receive the acknowledgement signal from the base station, the electronic device may increase the transmit power of a successive network access probe signal. The electronic device may switch between use of the first and second antennas when transmitting the network access probe signals. The electronic device may alternate between the first and second antennas or may use other antenna usage patterns.

摘要:
A digital subscriber line (DSL) modem that has a canceller digital filter for cancelling crosstalk and RF interference in a received DSL signal is disclosed. The modem includes common-mode sense circuitry and also differential-mode sense circuitry. Samples of the common-mode signal are acquired during a “quiet” period of initialization of the DSL modem, and samples of the differential-mode signal are acquired during live transmission of a DSL signal. An estimate of an autocorrelation function is obtained from the common-mode samples, and a cross-correlation of the common-mode samples and differential-mode samples is also estimated. Digital filter coefficients are derived from these estimates, based on the assumption that the common-mode samples acquired during the “quiet” phase represent crosstalk and RF interference present during differential-mode communications. The digital filter coefficients can also be updated during showtime of the DSL link, using an expanded number of samples of the common-mode and differential-mode signals.
摘要:
A user device receives packets from a base station. The user device may invoke decoding while the packet is still being received, based on the incomplete contents of a given packet. This “partial packet decoding” relies on the fact that the underlying information in the packet is encoded with redundancy (code rate less than one). If link quality is poor, the partial packet decoding is likely to be unsuccessful, i.e., to fail in its attempt to recover the underlying information. To avoid waste of power, the user device may be configured to apply one or more tests of link quality prior to invoking the partial packet decoding on a current packet.
