System and method for interference cancellation in a digital wireless communications system. A preferred embodiment comprises sampling a received signal wherein the received signal is real-valued, rotating the sampled received signal by a specified amount, extracting in-phase and quadrature phase streams from the rotated, sampled received signal, applying an interference suppression filter and combining the filtered streams. The output of the combining operation can be de-correlated (by whitening) if there is excessive correlation.

A data encoding algorithm can be used (120) to generate overhead bits from original data bits, and the original data bits and overhead bits can be transmitted in respectively separate transmissions (121, 123), if the overhead bits are needed. At the receiver, the original data bits can be determined (125) from the received overhead bits, or the received data bits and the received overhead bits can be combined and decoded together (126) to produce the original data bits.

摘要:
System and method for improving performance of digital wireless communications systems in the presence of interferers. A preferred embodiment comprises generating a list of hypotheses from a list of known interferers and timing offsets, receiving a signal transmitted over-the-air, computing an error variance for each hypothesis, and selecting the hypothesis with the lowest error variance. The hypothesis can then be used to extract data from the received signal.
摘要:
An inquiry message is transmitted successively on each of a first plurality of transmit frequencies (44–48) and thereafter successively on each of a second plurality of transmit frequencies (51), in order to ensure that a first wireless communication apparatus that listens on one of the transmit frequencies will receive the inquiry message. The first plurality of transmit frequencies can also be ensured (25–28) to include a frequency on which a second wireless communication apparatus is listening for the inquiry message. With respect to reception of an inquiry message that is transmitted successively on each of first and thereafter second pluralities of transmit frequencies, after receipt (61) of the initial inquiry message and subsequent expiration of a corresponding backoff period (62), the inquiry message is first listened for on a first frequency of the first plurality of transmit frequencies for a predetermined time (63). If the inquiry message is not received on the first frequency during the first listening operation, the inquiry message is then listened for on a second frequency of the second plurality of transmit frequencies for a predetermined time (64).
摘要:
A communication circuit (28) is designed with a signal processing circuit (370) arranged to produce a first plurality of data signals and receive a second plurality of data signals. A transmit circuit (364) is coupled to receive the first plurality of data signals and transmit each data signal of the first plurality of data signals on a respective transmit frequency in a predetermined sequence of transmit frequencies. A receive circuit (362) is coupled to receive each data signal of the second plurality of data signals from a remote transmitter on the respective transmit frequency in the predetermined sequence. The receive circuit applies the second plurality of data signals to the signal processing circuit.
