Application: Tensor memory access based implementation for massive and ultra-massive mimo systems (Patent ID: US20240078040A1)

The patent filed by Micron Technology Inc. describes systems and methods involving a multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) transceiver with multiple receive antennas and a wireless receiver to receive and decode signals. The transceiver includes a memory array and controller with a data address generator to create memory addresses during signal decoding based on the memory command's access mode. These memory addresses correspond to specific memory access instructions for accessing memory cells efficiently.

The apparatus and method outlined in the patent focus on optimizing memory access operations in MIMO systems by generating memory addresses based on the access mode specified in the memory command. This approach allows for efficient retrieval or storage of data in the memory array during signal decoding. The patent also covers various types of memory access modes, such as row, column, diagonal, or sub-matrix access modes, to enhance the overall performance of the MIMO device. Additionally, the patent details the use of a data buffer to store data associated with memory commands, further improving the efficiency of memory operations in MIMO systems, whether they are massive MIMO or ultra-massive MIMO systems.
