An apparatus and method for transmitting and receiving a bit stream. On the transmission side, coded bits (Y.sub.t) and an interleaved version of the coded bits (X.sub.t) are separately modulated and transmitted. On the reception side, a priori output probabilities produced by a probability generator (34) are combined (112) and then input to a SISO decoder (111). Combined a posteriori output probabilities (115) produced by the SISO decoder are split (113) and then fed back to the probability generator.
摘要:
A method of wireless handover in a broadcast network (FIGS. 5 and 8) is disclosed. A wireless receiver (FIG. 4) receives a first signal (N) from a first transmitter (f1). The receiver measures a signal strength (RSSI) of the first signal. The strength of the first signal is compared to a first threshold (T0). The receiver receives a second signal (N+3) from a second transmitter (f3) in response to the step of comparing. The first and the second signals are sent to an application processor (120). The wireless receiver continues to receive the first and second signals until the application processor terminates receiving one of the first and second signals.

The present invention provides a time-switched preamble supplement generator for use with a multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) transmitter employing N transmit antennas wherein N is at least two. In one embodiment, the time-switched preamble supplement generator includes an initial preamble supplement formatter configured to provide a first permutation of a set of preamble supplements to the N transmit antennas during an initial time interval. The first permutation includes a single first preamble supplement and at least one second preamble supplement. The time-switched preamble supplement generator also includes a subsequent preamble supplement formatter coupled to the initial preamble supplement formatter and configured to provide (N−1) mutually exclusive further permutations of the set to the N transmit antennas during (N−1) subsequent time intervals.

A Hybrid IMMSE-LMMSE receiver processing technique predicts performance of and selects between iterative and non-iterative decoding of symbols based on an intelligent metric. Based on a pre-specified criterion, the receiver determines if a correct first-stage decision is made or not. If a correct decision is made, then it follows iterative processing like in BLAST. Alternatively, if a wrong decision is found to have occurred, the receiver resorts to LMMSE estimation processing.
摘要:
A resynchronization method for use in a data communication system having a first device configured to transmit data at a symbol rate to a second device. The second device includes a Reed Solomon (RS) decoder having a RS lock indicator and a Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) Protocol Interface (MPI) having a MPI lock indicator, wherein the RS and MPI lock indicators are monitored. Four different states, defined by the values of the RS and MPI lock indicators, determine whether the data communication system will wait for the RS decoded and the MPI hardware block to resynchronize, whether an intermediate-subset of the channel acquisition algorithm is performed or whether the entire channel acquisition algorithm is performed. The method of resynchronization described herein recovers synchronization within a predetermined time without the layers above the physical link layer having knowledge.
摘要:
A method of correctly estimating the frequency offset when the CPE modem has already acquired and is tracking the OFDM burst boundaries in an OFDM-based, wireless communication system. CPS data in an OFDM-based, wireless communication system is modulated as QPSK data in the training tones of the data burst. As long as some bursts have the CPS data modulation and some bursts do not have the CPS data modulation, the CPS data can be recovered. A slip results when there is a linear phase difference across the tones (after the FFT) between the current and the previous burst. This linear phase difference is generally taken care of by the channel estimation obtained using the pilot tones. This phase difference is however, now compensated for correct frequency offset estimation which occurs before the channel estimation and CPS decoding steps.
摘要:
Methods are presented for phase estimation and compensation in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex systems. The methods include the step of extracting training tones from a received digitized data burst. Some of the methods further include the steps of determining a channel impulse response based on the extracted tones; estimating phase shift caused by common phase noise; correcting the impulse response and performing a Fast Fourier transform to provide a channel estimate. Some of the methods include estimating the phase shift caused by common phase noise before an average impulse response is updated with the current impulse impulse. Some of the methods include frequency shifting the spectrum of the channel impulse response and providing partial estimates.
