Implementations disclosed describe techniques and systems that improve wireless connectivity between devices that support multiple operation modes, by monitoring a quality of the established wireless connection and performing a change of the operation mode in response to changing conditions. The disclosed techniques include obtaining metrics characterizing quality of the wireless connection, identifying a utility function that is specific to an application supported by the wireless connection, computing multiple values of the utility function for various operation modes, based on the obtained metrics, and initiating a change of the operation mode based on a comparison of the computed utility values.

Adaptive wireless connections in multi-mode devices

Systems, methods, and devices perform unified demodulation operations for wireless communications devices. Methods may include receiving, at a buffer of a wireless communications device, a data packet, and performing, using a processing device, one or more synchronization operations based on one or more operational modes of a wireless communications protocol. Methods may additionally include identifying, using the processing device, a type of the data packet, configuring, using the processing device, a receive chain of the wireless communications device to perform a type of demodulation operation based on the identified type of the data packet.

Systems, methods, and devices for unified demodulation in wireless communications devices

Systems, methods, and devices estimate timing values for data transmission associated with wireless communications devices. Methods include receiving, at a transceiver of a wireless communications device, at least one symbol included in a data transmission, obtaining a plurality of samples of the at least one symbol, and generating, using one or more processors, a plurality of correlation values for each of the plurality of samples. Methods further include generating, using the one or more processors, a multi-sample interpolation model based on at least some of the plurality of correlation values and determining, using the one or more processors, an estimated maximum correlation value and a temporal offset value based on the multi-sample interpolation model, the temporal offset value being used for a time of arrival computation.

Systems, methods, and devices for timing recovery in wireless communications devices

Systems, methods, and devices shape waveforms associated with transmission of data from wireless communications devices. Methods may include identifying, using a processing device, a plurality of portions of a Bluetooth packet for transmission from a wireless communications device, the plurality of portions comprising a first portion and a second portion. Methods may also include determining, using the processing device, a first transmit power associated with the first portion and a second transmit power associated with the second portion, the determining being based, at least in part, on whether the first portion or second portion is used in packet detection. Methods may further include transmitting the first portion of the Bluetooth packet using the first transmit power, and transmitting the second portion of the Bluetooth packet using the second transmit power.
