Abstract:
A method includes receiving input blocks each having multiple bits to be transmitted. The method also includes applying a first encoding scheme to a first subset of the bits in the input blocks to generate first encoded bits and applying a second encoding scheme to a second subset of the bits in the input blocks to generate second encoded bits. The second encoding scheme has lower overhead than the first encoding scheme. The method further includes generating symbols using the first and second encoded bits. The first encoded bits include two or more first bits per symbol of each output block, and the second encoded bits include one or more second bits per symbol of each output block.
Abstract:
A method of predistorting an input signal (902) for an amplifier is disclosed (FIG. 9). The method includes predistorting the input signal with a first set of parameters (FDPD) and a second set of parameters (CDPD) at a first time (904). The first set of parameters is updated at a second time (914). The second set of parameters is updated separately from the first set of parameters at a third time (920).

Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide a method of decoding of hexagonal constellations. The decoding methods exploit the inherent structure of the hexagonal grid to eliminate/minimize the requirements for distance computations. A constellation which has unused constellation points is received. A plurality of lookup tables is used for indicating whether a particular constellation point is used. The lookup tables are indexed using the two integers u and v. An initial estimate ū and v is found. The euclidean distance to the immediate neighbors resulting in the immediate upper and lower integers for ū and v is computed. From the distance to the nearest neighbor, the log-likelihood ratio value is computed.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for crest factor reduction (CFR) are described. A multi-band CFR architecture achieves significant hardware savings without sacrificing CFR performance by applying peak cancellation to each band individually. However, peak detection is calculated based on a combined input signal.
Abstract:
A method to form a CFR cancellation filter for signals with dynamic power and frequency distribution by estimating the filter at the rate required by the input signal's dynamics. For mixed mode systems (for example CDMA and LTE) the CFR is computed for each stream, and combined to form the final filter.
