In some examples, a touch screen can perform a first touch scan to obtain first touch data and a second touch scan to obtain second touch data. The touch data resulting from the second touch scan may exclude respective noise (e.g., display-to-touch crosstalk (DTX) noise) or may include a reduced amount of the respective noise. In some examples, the electronic device can subtract the second touch data from the first touch data to obtain an estimate of the noise in the first touch data. In some examples, this noise estimate can be subtracted from the first touch data and an action can be performed based on the first touch data with the noise estimate removed.

Multi-scan touch sensing system and method

Detecting and mitigating the effects of interference in a positioning system. A received signal is divided into a plurality of receive signal time/frequency (RSTF) values. A plurality of threshold values are determined based on expected energy values for the received signal. In one implementation, if a predetermined number of the RSTF values are above the threshold, the received signal is determined to be corrupt.

Interference detection and rejection for wide area positioning systems

Estimating a position of a mobile device. Particular systems and methods for estimating a position of a mobile device using information from two positioning technologies determine different position estimates for the mobile device using different positioning technologies, and determine a final position estimate for the mobile device using a weighted combination of the different position estimates. In some implementations, the weighted combination is a weighted average or a weighted median of the different position estimates. Weights may be determined using respective uncertainty metrics corresponding to the respective position estimates.

Systems and methods for estimating a position of a receiver

Estimating one or more positions of a receiver using one or more anchor points. Systems and methods for estimating a position of a receiver using a particular anchor point may identify an area of interest that includes anchor points, identify the particular anchor point, and then use information about the particular anchor point to estimate the position of the receiver.

Position estimation of a receiver using anchor points

Interference detection and mitigation using maximal ratio combining in the correlation domain. Systems and methods for interference detection and mitigation using maximal ratio combining in the correlation domain may receive a plurality of copies of a positioning signal, compute a plurality of correlation functions using the received positioning signals; weight the plurality of correlation functions using a plurality of weights that are proportional to the quality of the plurality of correlation functions, and generate a combined correlation function by combining the weighted correlation functions.
