Data Circuit Terminating Equipment (DCE) allows the connection of a Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) to a telecommunication line. The DCE includes timing elements for providing the DTE with any desired transmitter signal element timing and any desired receiver signal element timing. The timing elements include processing elements for computing a sequence of digital values A(n) and for deriving therefrom a corresponding sequence of interrupt signals T(n). The receiver signal element timing, the transmitter signal element timing, the transmit sampling clock pulsing the D/A converter and the receive sampling clock pulsing the A/D converter are all controlled by different sequences of digital values computed by the processing elements. By generating appropriate sequences of digital values, the processing elements can provide any desired relationship between the different clocks to satisfy a transmit signal element timing slaved to the receiver signal element timing in synchronous mode, or on an external clock in tailing mode. The timing elements can also provide a transmit sampling clock slaved to the receive sampling clock in order to perform powerful digital echo cancellation techniques. Moreover, the processing elements can control the persistence of a received bit, which if a STOP bit, can allow the compensation of the DTE and the line data throughput difference.

Method and apparatus for determining occurrence of an S1 modem identification sequence is disclosed. An S1 sequence is found to exist when the sum of conjugate complex multiplication of signal sample amplitudes taken at an interval T/2 result in a negative scalar value for an arbitrary number of sequential occurrences. Complex samples taken from incoming baseband waveform at twice the modulation rate are interleaved in pairs of two with two even numbered samples and two odd numbered samples being considered separately by first performing complex multiplication followed by scalar multiplication of an output of the complex multiplication and an output of the previous complex multiplication delayed by one modulation interval T. The separate results from the sets of pairs of signal samples are summed to form a scalar whose value when consistently less than 0 indicates the presence of an S1 modem identification sequence in accordance with the CCITT S1 recommendation.

A method, system and computer program product to adjust transfer rates on conductors in a multi-conductor cable comprising monitoring signals received on each conductor, determining a Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) for each conductor and adjusting a transfer rate on one or more conductors based on the corresponding SNR. In an embodiment the multi-conductor cable is a twisted pair Ethernet cable. The method further comprises determining whether a conductor is transmitting at an optimal transfer rate as a function of its SNR, calculating an optimal transfer rate for each conductor as a function of its SNR and periodically measuring a change in SNR on each conductor. If the change in SNR is greater than a predetermined threshold, then the transfer rate is re-calculated for the conductors requiring transfer rate adjustment as a function of SNR.

A method and apparatus is disclosed to map a sequence of data to Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) constellation symbols. The method and apparatus encodes only a portion of the sequence of data and leaves a remaining portion of the sequence of data unencoded. The encoded portion of the sequence of data and the remaining unencoded portion of the sequence of data are then mapped into modulation symbols of the QAM constellation. The encoded portion of the sequence of data selects subsets of the QAM constellation, and the remaining unencoded portion of the sequence of data determines a specific modulation symbol within each subset of the QAM constellation.

Signal processing under attenuated transmission conditions. Within an orthogonal signal space, the number of orthogonal signals that are used to transmit information from a transmitter to a receiver is reduced and the transmitted power of each of the now remaining orthogonal signals is modified; this may involve increasing the power of all of the remaining orthogonal signals equally or alternatively modifying them individually. The same modulation used before the reduction may also be used afterwards; within communication systems having multiple transmitter-receiver paths, this will ensure that the communication system's throughput and efficiency will remain unchanged even when one (or more) transmitter-receiver paths are highly attenuated. In addition, robust mode operation is provided for ranging and registering of transmitter devices when entering the communication system. In addition, the unused orthogonal signals may be employed to support interference cancellation of those orthogonal signals that are used to transmit information.

Various systems and methods related to equalization precoding in a communications channel are disclosed. In one implementation precoding is performed on signals transmitted over an optical channel. In one implementation precoding and decoding operations are performed in parallel to facilitate high speed processing in relatively low cost circuits. Initialization of the precoders may be realized by transmitting information related to the characteristics of the channel between transceiver pairs.

Certain aspects for the start-up procedure of transceivers supporting higher data rates over twisted-pair copper cabling are provided for 10 Gbit/sec Ethernet links (10GBASE-T). During a PMA (physical medium attachment) training period of the start-up procedure, long PMA training frames are exchanged periodically between link partners. A significant portion of each PMA training frame consists of known pseudo random sequences simultaneously transmitted over four wire pairs. PMA training frames include an InfoField for exchanging parameters and control information between link partners. For example, the InfoField's payload comprises fields for indicating current transmit power backoff (PBO), next PBO, requested PBO, transition count, control information, and for communicating precoder coefficients. Information in InfoFields is repeated and is not necessary that a link partner decodes every InfoField. For example, by occasionally reading the transition count, a link partner can determine when a change in transmit PBO and/or a state transition is to occur.
摘要:
In a communication system, Huffman coding techniques are used to obtain shaping gains for an improvement in data transmission rates. More particularly, a novel method of Huffman shaping is described that achieves a shaping gain of greater than 1 dB. The shaping gain results in a higher data rate transmission in a communication system where transmitted power is constrained.
