Disclosed herein is a system and method for determining the presence of rotated-BPSK modulation. In addition, disclosed herein is a system and method for determining if a received packet is a Legacy, Mixed-Mode, or Green-Field packet in accordance with the determination of the presence of rotated-BPSK modulation. The presence of a Green-Field packet may be determined by detecting if additional tones are being excited in an LTF symbol of the received packet and/or if a SIG field symbol following the LTF symbol is modulated by rotated-BPSK. The presence of a Mixed-Mode packet may be determined by detecting if the first four bits of the SIG field symbol following the LTF symbol are [1 1 0 1] and/or detecting if a symbol following an L-SIG symbol is modulated by rotated-BPSK. The presence of a Legacy packet may be determined by detecting if the symbol following the L-SIG symbol is modulated by BPSK.

The present invention is directed to a time-switched preamble generator and method of generating a time-switched preamble for use with a multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) transmitter employing first and second transmit antennas. In one embodiment, the time-switched preamble generator includes an initial preamble formatter configured to provide a first preamble to the first transmit antenna and a second preamble to the second transmit antenna during an initial time interval. The time-switched preamble generator also includes a subsequent preamble formatter coupled to the initial preamble formatter and configured to provide the second preamble to the first transmit antenna and the first preamble to the second transmit antenna during a subsequent time interval.
摘要:
A circuit is designed with a measurement circuit (746) coupled to receive an input signal from at least one of a first antenna and a second antenna of a transmitter. The measurement circuit produces an output signal corresponding to a magnitude of the input signal. A control circuit (726) is coupled to receive the output signal, a first reference signal (.eta..sub.1) and a second reference signal (.eta..sub.2). The control circuit is arranged to produce a control signal in response to a comparison of the output signal, the first reference signal and the second reference signal.

A device and a method of characterizing a communications channel. The method includes transmitting a first part of a packet preamble using two or more antennas and transmitting a second part of the packet preamble using the two or more antennas. Each antenna transmits an orthogonal encoding of the second part of the packet preamble. The method also includes transmitting a packet header using the two or more antennas and transmitting a packet payload using the two or more antennas. Each antenna transmits an orthogonal encoding of the packet header. The packet payload may be encoded across the transmissions of the two or more antennas.

摘要:
A system and method facilitate estimating noise in a received signal. The received signal is formed of a plurality of tones, such as training tones and data tones. Noise is estimated at the training tones, which generally comprise a lesser number of the tones in the received signal than the data tones. The estimated noise at the training tones can be employed to facilitate demodulating and/or decoding data tones in the received signal. In one aspect, the estimated training tone noise can be utilized by a beamformer.

摘要:
A transmit channel (gt1, h, gr2) through which a first wireless communication transceiver is to transmit to a second wireless communication transceiver can be estimated using information indicative of a relationship between the transmit channel and a receive channel (gt2, h, gr1) through which the first wireless communication transceiver receives communications from the second wireless communication transceiver. The relationship information (35) is combined (37) with further information (31) to produce an estimate of the transmit channel.
摘要:
A method of determining CPS data in an OFDM-based, wireless communication system resolves the phase angle difference between training tones in a burst without CPS data and training tones in a burst with CPS data and then demodulates the resulting difference phase angles to determine the CPS data. The method achieves timing correction/compensation in CPS decode operations associated with OFDM-based, wireless communication systems.

The present invention provides a time-orthogonal preamble supplement generator for use with a multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) transmitter employing N transmit antennas, where N is at least two. In one embodiment, the time-orthogonal preamble supplement generator includes an initial preamble supplement encoder configured to provide a preamble supplement to each of the N transmit antennas during an initial time interval. The time-orthogonal preamble supplement generator also includes a subsequent preamble supplement encoder coupled to the initial preamble supplement encoder and configured to provide the preamble supplement or a negation thereof to the N transmit antennas during (N-1) subsequent time intervals.
