    摘要: The present disclosure is directed to a system and method for providing directional spectral awareness via an antenna system which includes a single parasitic antenna and a processor, the processor being communicatively coupled with the parasitic antenna. The antenna system allows for quick scanning of all sectors included in a plurality of sectors of an RF environment being monitored by the antenna system. The antenna system also allows for monitoring sectors of interest. The directionality of the parasitic antenna of the antenna system may reduce interference and multipath along with providing improved SNR due to antenna gain, thereby allowing for collection of signals of interest in a more favorable environment, thereby enabling analysis such as frequency and spatial use, signal detection, signal identification, and source geolocation to succeed when it may have failed if an omni-directional antenna were used.

    摘要: An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communications system transmits data on a plurality of subcarriers and has a featureless synchronization signal. The OFDM communications system transmits synchronization tones on pseudorandomly selected subcarriers. A receiver generates the same synchronization tones and performs a correlation on the received signal with the receiver synchronization tones. The correlation is performed at the beginning and the end of the synchronization symbol. A product of the two correlations results in a magnitude peak and a phase difference. The magnitude peak is used to determine the location in time of the sync symbol and the phase difference is used to determine the frequency offset of the received signal.

    摘要: A mobile radio has more than one channel, each channel corresponding to a programmable transceiver circuit. The mobile radio also includes at least one high gain antenna coupled to at least one of the programmable transceiver circuits. A location determining circuit is configured to determine the location of the mobile radio. A processor is coupled to the transceivers and to the location determining circuit. The processor runs a program logic that is configured to identify whether the mobile radio is in a location that enables the mobile radio to extend the reach of the network both due to its location and due to the use of the at least one high gain antenna. The processor also runs a program logic to carry out spectrum sensing to identify available spectral resources based on communication traffic on various frequency bands.

    摘要: A method of correlating a signal to a synchronization pattern is disclosed. The signal has a waveform with frequency and phase angle components that may be varied, at each repeated signal pulse, to communicate a change in a bit pattern of the signal. A synchronization pattern is generated using knowledge of phase rotation direction due to two consecutive bits in a synchronization key. The signal is compared with the synchronization pattern. It is determined whether the comparison of the signal and the synchronization pattern indicate a correlation between the signal and the synchronization pattern.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for signal separation and SINR improvement is disclosed. In particular, disclosed is an iterative technique whereby a noisy signal, that may include signals from one or more distinct emitters, is first improved through an SINR improvement technique. Next, one signal from the noisy signal is identified and a reference signal substantially free of noise and interference is generated for this signal, and then this reference signal is subtracted from the noisy signal. This process is repeated until no other signals may be identified. In this way, the signal with the highest SINR may be identified first and then removed from the original signal. As such, the identified signal is no longer present as interference for the remaining signals, thus improving each of the remaining signals' respective SINRs.
