摘要:
An FFT unit (170) separates a received symbol by Fourier conversion into a plurality of subcarriers, and a phase difference detection unit (193) detects a phase difference between 4 pilot carriers and data carriers adjacent to the pilot carriers (adjacent carriers) The decision unit (194) decides whether the phase differences between the pilot carriers and the adjacent carriers detected by the phase difference detection unit (193) fulfill a phase difference condition. Then, the decision unit (194) decides that the received symbol is an HTSIG if the number of phase differences that fulfill the phase difference condition is greater than or equal to a predetermined number, and decides that the received symbol is either a SIG or a DATA if the number of phase differences that fulfill the phase difference condition is less than the predetermined number.
摘要:
In a transfer apparatus to which MIMO-OFDM is applied, a data transmission method and a data reception method are provided in which, even when there are frequency errors varying among transfer paths, the precision of estimation of an inverse propagation coefficient function can be improved, thereby making it possible to suppress a degradation in characteristics. Among symbols composed of a plurality of subcarriers orthognal to each other, the transfer apparatus uses, as a synchronization symbol, a symbol in which predetermined amplitudes and phases are assigned to a plurality of subcarriers spaced at predetermined frequency intervals. The synchronization symbol is divided into transmission antennas to generate a plurality of synchronization subsymbols, which are in turn simultaneously transmitted from a plurality of transmission antennas. A reception apparatus estimates a frequency error for each transfer path based on synchronization subsymbols included in signals received by a plurality of reception antennas, and based on the estimated frequency errors, corrects the received signals.

An AGC unit 111 starts a gain control of the variable gain amplifying unit 102 when a bit saturation occurs in the digital baseband signal output from the A/D converting unit 104, and starts a gain control of the variable gain amplifying unit 102 when a detection of STS from the digital baseband signal output from the A/D converting unit 104 is started. The AGC unit 111 performs the gain control of the variable gain amplifying unit 102 once when the detection of STS is started, and performs the gain control of the variable gain amplifying unit 102 twice when the bit saturation occurs, namely a larger number of times than when the detection of STS is started.
摘要:
OFDM signals each including a plurality of subcarriers (including data carriers and pilot carriers) orthogonal to each other are received by a plurality of receiver antennas. The received OFDM signals are each OFDM-demodulated into a plurality of receive subcarriers. Based on the plurality of receive subcarriers, the propagation coefficients of a plurality of space paths are estimated. An inverse matrix of a propagation matrix whose elements are the estimated propagation coefficients is calculated. Interference cancellation is performed for the plurality of receive subcarriers by using the inverse matrix, and transmit subcarriers multiplexed in space are estimated. A reliability of the inverse matrix is calculated. A pilot carrier is extracted from the estimated transmit subcarriers, and the extracted pilot carrier is weighted according to the reliability. An error included in the plurality of receive subcarriers is corrected based on the weighted pilot carrier.

摘要:
An apparatus and method for OFDM demodulation establish symbol synchronization to minimize between-symbol interference even under an environment where multipath occurs.An incoming signal is an OFDM signal including a transmission symbol structured by a valid symbol period and a guard interval, and a predetermined synchronization symbol is included in the OFDM signal for every transmission frame. A correlator calculates how a signal generated by a synchronization symbol generator and the OFDM signal are correlated. A correlation calculator then calculates a correlation therefrom. An integrator integrates the calculated correlation by the guard interval. A timing determination device determines symbol timing from the integrated correlation. An FFT window generator outputs operation timing for Fourier transform from the determined symbol timing. Based on the signal outputted from the FFT window generator, the apparatus for OFDM demodulation extracts a signal in the valid symbol period from the transmission symbol for demodulation.

摘要:
During all or part of a time period during which pattern signals are received, a diversity receiving apparatus allows a gain control section to fix the gain of a gain amplifier section, allows an antenna switching section to sequentially switch the selection of antennas during antenna switching periods which are synchronized with averaging periods, and determines an antenna to receive data contained in a packet, based on the levels of average powers measured by an averaging section on an averaging period-by-averaging period basis.
