Abstract: A method for operating a communications system includes transmitting a preamble sequence including a plurality of tones. Each tone of the plurality of tones has a first characteristic and a second characteristic. The first characteristic of each of the tones of the plurality of tones has a predetermined relative relationship to the first characteristic of each of the other tones of the plurality of tones and the second characteristic of each of the tones of the plurality of tones has a predetermined relative relationship to the second characteristic of each of the other tones of the plurality of tones. The first and second characteristics may include relative power and relative phase.

Abstract: A method compensates for a frequency error in a communications system. The method includes detecting a received preamble sequence in a received signal. The received preamble sequence is detected based on a plurality of power estimates corresponding to a plurality of frequency bins of a received frequency domain signal and a plurality of relative phase errors corresponding to the plurality of frequency bins of the received frequency domain signal. The method includes determining the frequency error using the received preamble sequence. The method includes adjusting the receiver based on the frequency error.

Abstract: A receiver includes an analog receiver and a digital processor. The analog receiver has an input for receiving a radio frequency (RF) signal, and an output for providing a digital intermediate frequency signal. The digital processor has an input for receiving the digital intermediate frequency signal, and an output for providing digital symbols. The digital processor measures peak-to-peak frequency deviation of the digital intermediate frequency signal, and performs a digital signal processing function on the digital intermediate frequency signal to provide the digital symbols based on the peak-to-peak frequency deviation so measured.

Abstract: A wireless transceiver includes receiver front-end circuitry for processing an ingoing radio frequency (RF) signal to produce an in-going digital signal to a processor connected to receive the in-going digital signal. The processor includes sync word determination logic configured to identify a received sync word or other event or connection point and to subsequently generate an event determination signal. A low power oscillator produces low frequency pulses to a first counter. A crystal oscillator that produces higher frequency pulses to a second counter is used for the last portion of the desired sleep time for greater resolution. Thus, a calibration controller receives pulse counts from at least one of the first and second counters and determines a period between a common event of subsequent beacon signals or connection events and determines wake up times based on the received pulse counts from at least one of the first and second counters.
