Abstract:
A system for noise canceling using a single return conductor. The system employs a first unit, a full duplex communications path coupled to the first unit, and a second unit coupled to the first unit via the full duplex communications path. The full duplex communications path employs at least three conductors: a forward signal carrying conductor; a reverse signal carrying conductor; and a single return conductor. In order to perform noise canceling, the first unit may employ, for example, a first adder coupled to the reverse signal carrying conductor, and a first canceling impedance coupled between the single return conductor and a first unit ground. Similarly, the second unit 12 may employ a second adder coupled to the forward signal carrying conductor, and a second canceling impedance coupled between the single return conductor and a second unit ground.
Abstract:
The present invention provides systems and methods for adaptive digital data transmission rate control. A digital data transmission system for adaptively transferring packets over a transmission link includes a client device having a bandwidth control module and a host device coupled to the client device over the transmission link. The host device includes one or more bandwidth control registers and a packet builder. The bandwidth control module determines a packet speed and/or size for packets transmitted from the host device to the client device over the transmission link. The bandwidth control registers store the requested packet size and/or rate. The packet builder accesses these registers when transmitting packets to determine the requested packet size and/or rate.

Abstract:
The present invention provides systems and methods for implementing cyclic redundancy checks to improve link initialization processing and to exchange system error information. In one aspect, a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) checker is provided that includes a unique pattern detector, a CRC generator, a CRC initializer and a CRC verifier. The CRC checker prepopulates the CRC generator for a unique pattern. Upon receipt of the unique pattern within a data stream received over a digital transmission link, the CRC checker proceeds to check CRCs without the need to queue and store data. In another aspect, a CRC generator system is provided that intentionally corrupts CRC values to transmit system error information. The CRC generator system includes a CRC generator, a CRC corrupter, an error detector and an error value generator. In one example, the digital transmission link is an MDDI link.
