    Abstract: Aspects disclosed herein relate to improving acquisition for NFC load modulation. In one example, a communications device is equipped to monitor at least a complex component of load modulation of a carrier signal, detect, using a NFC technology type specific peak detection scheme, a peak associated with at least the complex component, and determine a presence of a packet beginning pattern based on the detected peak. In an aspect, the packet beginning pattern may be associated with a reception of a packet from a target NFC device.

    Abstract: The present systems and methods may shape signals to meet emission mask requirements, current consumption requirements, and overshoot/undershoot requirements relating to the interaction that, for example, occurs when a near field communications (NFC) target comes within range of an NFC initiator, and the initiator generates and transmits an NFC waveform. In some implementations, a pair of bit patterns are defined whose differential output from an amplifier is a shaped pulse width modulated waveform. Varying individual bits of the bit patterns can vary the shaped pulse waveform with predictability. The pulse width modulated waveform may be filtered using a matching network that reduces higher order harmonics, thereby reducing out-of-band emissions.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first wireless communication device may transmit, to a second wireless communication device, a time and/or frequency synchronization message using a first radio frequency (RF) technology, wherein the time and/or frequency synchronization message is used to obtain synchronization information for a second RF technology. The first wireless communication device may transmit, to the second wireless communication device, a first set of ranging measurement signals associated with the second RF technology. The first wireless communication device may receive, from the second wireless communication device, a second set of ranging measurement signals associated with the second RF technology. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: A device (e.g., a wireless device) may obtain a set of encoded bits, and select a set of symbol locations for puncturing. The device may then obtain and transmit modulated symbols based on the puncturing. For example, the device may encode information bits according to a convolutional code rate. In some cases, the encoded bits may be punctured (e.g., via a puncturing matrix with each column including either all 1's or all 0's) and the set of punctured bits may be mapped to symbols. In other cases, the encoded bits may be mapped to symbols, and the symbols may be punctured (e.g., via a puncturing matrix). The puncturing matrix may be identified based on a desired punctured code rate, the convolutional code rate used to encode the information bits, and whether or not the puncturing is to be applied before or after symbol mapping.

    Abstract: In a wireless near field communication (NFC) system, a target, such as a smart card, can communicate with an initiator, such as a card reader, by load modulating a radio frequency (RF) signal generated by the initiator. When two or more targets load modulate the RF signal generated, “collisions” can occur with the load modulation. Apparatus and methods detect the presence or absence of collisions in a lower layer or physical layer and report the presence of detected collisions to an upper layer for further handling.
