摘要:
In an OFDM mobile communications system, an algorithm for forming a preliminary estimate of the channel on pilot subcarriers is carried out. Based on this preliminary estimate, a channel property is estimated. This channel property is then used to decide whether to enter a mobile receiver mode or a stationary receiver mode. For example, in the mobile mode channel estimation is performed using only pilot symbols from the current symbol period, while in the static mode channel estimation is performed using pilot symbols from the current symbol period and pilot symbols from other symbol periods.

A method for driving a light source (11, 12, 13) is described, wherein the light source is alternately switched ON and OFF in an ON/OFF pattern, wherein the duty cycle of the ON/OFF pattern is varied to vary the average light intensity of the light source, and wherein the shape of the ON/OFF pattern is varied to transmit data. Thus, a control signal for the light source comprises data information as well as duty cycle information. The duty cycle is varied within a range from almost zero to almost 100%, and data is varied and transmitted without affecting the duty cycle.

A method of signal processing for a receiver for OFDM encoded digital signals, for counteracting inter-carrier interference (ICI) caused by Doppler broadening. The OFDM encoded digital signals are transmitted as sub-carriers in several channels, which form OFDM blocks. The method comprises estimation of a channel transfer function (H1) by a channel estimation scheme in each sub-carrier and estimation of data (a1) by a data estimation scheme from said channel transfer function (H1) and a received signal (yo). Then, a derivative (Hj’) of said channel transfer function in each sub-carrier is estimated by a temporal filtering; and the inter-carrier interference (ICI) is removed from said received signal by using the estimated data (â1) and the estimated derivative (Hj’ ) of the channel transfer function in order to obtain a cleaned received signal (y1).

Transmitters (116) for transmitting information and receivers (126) for receiving the information are defined by the information comprising a primary message and a secondary message combined in a same transmission or a same reception, which primary and secondary messages comprise communication protocol signaling messages, to avoid that a protocol conversion arrangement needs to be added to and to be placed between the transmitter (116) and the receiver (126). This increases the efficiency of the transmitter (116) and the receiver (126). The primary and secondary communication protocol messages are in accordance with first and second standards such as 802.11 a and later standards such as 802.11 n. The receiver (126) is able to detect the primary or secondary communication protocol message in case of the receiver (126) being in accordance with the first or second standard. The secondary message is embedded in the primary message via a modulation or via a selection of a subset of a set of a modulation constellation.

A method of signal processing and a signal processor for a receiver for OFDM encoded digital signals. The OFDM encoded digital signals are transmitted as data symbol sub-carriers in several frequency channels. A subset of said sub carriers is in the form of pilot sub-carriers having a value known to the receiver. A first estimation of channel coefficients (H0) at said pilot sub-carriers is performed followed by cleaning of the estimated channel coefficients (H0) at the pilot sub-carriers. Then, a second estimation of channels coefficients (H1) is performed at the data symbol sub-carriers. The first estimation is performed by dividing received symbols (yp) at said pilot sub-carriers by the known pilot symbols (ap). the channel frequency response is supposed to vary linearly within one OFDM symbol. Therefore for each symbol and sub-band, a channel frequency response and its derivate are calculated or interpolated.
