摘要:
Systems and methods of combining OFDM and CDMA signals are provided. An OFDM packet data channel is overlaid over CDMA transmissions. The channel is scheduled slotwise between multiple users. In some embodiments, there is a CDMA packet data channel which is scheduled together with the OFDM packet data channel.

One or more preambles are inserted into frames of Orthogonal Frequency Multiplexing (OFDM)-Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) signals. The preamble is received by the antennas of a receiver, decoded and compared to known values to provide synchronization, framing, channels estimation, offsets and other corrections to the transmitted signal.

摘要:
A method of a receiver determining the timing of a signal transmitted in a time-slotted manner, the signal comprising a sequence of information which is repeated at a known interval and has at least a known minimum length. The method performs correlation operations between groups of received slots of information, the groups spaced by the known interval. The groups are moved through the received signal, adding and removing slots, to locate a maximum correlation value sum for the group which should correspond to the timing of the slot. The method also can be used to determine a frequency offset at the receiver and/or an initial phase.

Systems and methods for transmitting and receiving OFDM symbols are provided which enable the otherwise wasted transmission time normally used as a prefix for each OFDM symbol to contain useful information. At the receiver, the received signal is processed to convert received OFDM symbols from a linear convolution with the channel to a cyclic convolution.
摘要:
The distortion in the sub-carrier signals is determined by transmitting known values that are incorporated into the preamble portion of the frame and/or are incorporated into pilot symbols that are inserted into the data portion of the frame. The receiver typically receives these known values in a distorted form and then processes the distorted values together with the original known values to obtain a channel response. The channel response is then used to estimate the frequencies at which the channels are received.
摘要:
A method for timing phase recovery including the steps of first, estimating an open-eye sequence of a received signal, second, estimating a channel response using the open-eye sequence, and third, correlating the estimated channel response with an ideal channel response to determine the peak correlation location. The peak correlation location corresponds to the recovered timing phase. A system including means for estimating an open-eye sequence of a received signal, a channel estimator and a correlator is also provided. The channel estimator is used for estimating a channel response using the open-eye sequence and the received signal. The correlator is used for correlating the estimated channel response with an ideal channel response to determine the peak correlation location, the peak correlation location corresponding to the recovered timing phase.
摘要:
A time delay estimation method including the steps of first, estimating a channel response from a received signal, and second, determining a time delay estimate by correlating the estimated channel response with an ideal channel response. Further, a system including a channel estimator and a correlator is provided. The channel estimator is used for estimating a channel response from a received signal and the correlator is used for estimating a time delay using the channel response and an ideal channel response.

摘要:
Methods and systems for sharing white space with primary services and other emerging services are provided. Signal distribution within a specified location, such as a dwelling, is performed using a home gateway that identifies unused white space, reserves such white space spectrum, and delivers data to one or more devices at the respective location using the reserved spectrum. Signalling between the devices and the gateway is performed over a shared signalling channel, which enables the gateway to advise the devices from where and when to receive data. The gateway also uses a common spectrum reservation OFDM symbol to advise the neighbouring gateways of the local spectrum reservation.
