    Abstract: A device and method for canceling or attenuating harmonics noise without distorting the incoming signal. An exemplary device includes the use of an estimation loop to generate an artificial signal to eliminate or attenuate the influence of harmonics. The estimation loop includes a mixer adapted to produce a mixed signal by processing or combining the incoming signal and the artificial signal. The estimation loop includes an error detector, a low-pass filter, a parameter estimator, and a numerically controlled oscillator. The parameter estimator produces information relating to the phase, frequency, and amplitude of an incoming harmonics spur and will be used by the numerically controlled oscillator to generate the artificial signal. If the mixed signal contains relatively low levels of harmonics residuals, the mixed signal is produced at the output in lieu of the incoming signal.

    Abstract: A system for implementing a base band compression scheme for a nonlinear multiplying up-converter for QPSK and OQPSK includes a bit combining module, a quadrant remap module, a look-up table (LUT) and a zoom adjust module. The bit combining module is configured to generate an address based on a number of symbols received as input data. Using the address provided by the bit combining module, the quadrant remap module remaps symbols from quadrants “2”, “3” and “4” to quadrant “1” and generates signals to look up corresponding output data from the LUT. The zoom adjust module generates a number of solutions corresponding to the input data using the corresponding output data retrieved from the LUT. The zoom adjust module is then used to select the best output from the solutions to provide a smooth output signal that does not have any discontinuities.

    Abstract: An MPEG processor is provided. According to one aspect of the processor, multiple MPEG data streams for corresponding channels are individually stored in an off-chip memory. Corresponding data for a channel is then retrieved from the off-chip memory for processing. The retrieved data is then decoded. The decoded results and associated information are stored on the off-chip memory. Some or all of the associated information that can be used for decoding subsequent data is stored in an on-chip memory. When video images need to be displayed, the corresponding data that is needed for that purpose is then retrieved from the off-chip memory and provided to an analog encoder for encoding in a format that is compatible with an analog display device.

    Abstract: A system for managing bandwidth in a content distribution system is provided. The system can be incorporated into the content head end of the content distribution system. The system includes a program multiplexer, a multi-channel modulating module, a channel multiplexer, a digital-to-analog converter and a frequency block-up converter, all arranged in a sequential configuration. Packets representing respective content programs are fed to the program multiplexer. The program multiplexer multiplexes the packets into an output queue. How the packets are multiplexed by the program multiplexer into the output queue depends on the specific design and/or application. Packets from the output queue are then fed to the multi-channel modulating module. The multi-channel modulating module receives the packets and routes them to various modulators representing corresponding RF channels. The various modulators then modulate the respective packets to generate corresponding RF signals. These RF signals are then multiplexed by the channel multiplexer into a multi-channel RF signal. The multi-channel RF signal is then forwarded to the digital-to-analog converter for conversion into an analog, multi-channel RF signal. The frequency block-up converter then takes the analog multi-channel RF signal and shifts its to a higher frequency band for transmission. The shifted analog multi-channel RF signal is then transmitted over a medium to one or more customer premises equipment.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for performing high-speed multi-channel forward error correction using external DDR SDRAM is provided. According to one exemplary aspect, an interleaver/deinterleaver performs both read and write accesses to the DDR SDRAM that are burst-oriented by hiding active and precharge cycles in order to achieve high data rate operations. The interleaver/deinterleaver accesses data in the DDR SDRAM as read blocks and write blocks. Each block includes two data sequences. Each data sequence further includes a predetermined number of data words to be interleaved/deinterleaved. The PRECHARGE and ACTIVE command for one data sequence is issued when a preceding data sequence is being processed. Data in one read/write data sequence has the same row address within the same bank of the DDR SDRAM.

    Abstract: An improved multi-channel demodulator is provided. The improved demodulator includes an automatic gain control, a data buffer and a demodulation engine. Data from various RF channels are processed by the automatic gain control in order to keep the data at their respective constant levels. Output from the automatic gain control is passed to the data buffer for storage. Corresponding data from a selected channel is then processed by the demodulation engine. The improved demodulator is able to operate in any one of three operating modes, namely, a data processing mode, a channel switching mode and a waiting mode. In the data processing mode, the demodulation engine processes the channel data that is currently loaded into the demodulation engine. In the channel switching mode, the demodulation engine stores the current channel data into the data buffer and retrieves and loads channel data from another channel for processing. In addition, status and history information relating to the current channel data is stored into a channel status memory and status and history information relating to the next channel to be processed is retrieved from the channel status memory. In one exemplary aspect, in order to reduce the channel switching time, status and history information relating to the next channel to be processed is preloaded during the previous data processing mode. In the waiting mode, the demodulation engine awaits further processing instructions to decide whether to enter into either the data processing mode or the channel switching mode.
