    摘要: Techniques are disclosed for detecting a packet. One technique includes sampling a received signal to produce a sequence of samples wherein the sequence of samples includes a plurality of subsequences of samples; cross correlating the subsequences of samples with a known form of the subsequence to produce cross correlations; self correlating the cross correlations to produce a plurality of self correlations; summing the self correlations; and processing the sum of the self correlations.

    摘要: A Viterbi decoding system interprets bits in received QAM constellations as many-valued parameters rather than binary valued parameters. It performs the Viterbi algorithm using these many-valued parameters to provide results superior to hard decision decoding. Rather than applying a hard 0-1 function to the QAM data, the system uses a non-stepped linear or curved transfer function to assign values to the bits. In another aspect, a system differentiates between data bits based on their estimated reliability, giving more emphasis to decoding reliable bits than unreliable bits using any of a variety of techniques. By differentiating between god and bad bits and de-emphasizing or ignoring unreliable bits, the system can provide a significant reduction in uncorrectable errors and packet loss.

    摘要: Spurs cause significant problems with signal detecting, amplifier gain adjustment, and signal decoding. Various techniques can be used to mitigate the effects of spurs on a received signal. Generally, these techniques work by either canceling or ignoring the spurs. For example, a pilot mask can be used to ignore pilot information in one or more sub-channels. A Viterbi mask can determine the weighting given to bits in a sub-channel based on spur and data rate information. Channel interpolation can compute a pseudo channel estimate for a sub-channel known to have a spur location can be computed by interpolating the channel estimates of adjacent good sub-channels. Filtering of the received signal using a low-pass filter, a growing box filter, or a low-pass filter with self-correlation can be used to cancel a spur.

    摘要: Dynamic conditions present in a channel can quickly degrade signal quality, thereby reducing the data rate usable by a WLAN transmitter. For maximum throughput, the highest, reliable data rate available should be used. In accordance with one feature of an adaptive rate technique, a lookup RSSI from one or more acknowledgment packets can be determined. One or more valid data rates can then be determined, wherein a valid data rate has an RSSI threshold less than or equal to the lookup RSSI. An achievable throughput can be computed for each valid data rate based on a theoretical rate and a packet error rate (PER). The valid data rate having the highest achievable throughput can be chosen as the new transmission rate. A rate control table, which can include RSSI thresholds, UDP rates, and PERs for each supported data rate, can be updated based on actual transmission information.

    摘要: A multi-dimensional beamforming device that performs consecutive one-dimensional operations. For example, beamsteering for a two-dimensional array can be include a projection of a beam onto each of the respective axes of the array. In such a device, a first beamforming processing element is used to form multiple beams for each array output along a given row. In a preferred embodiment, sequential output vectors from the first processing element are then applied to a transposing or corner turning memory and the data are reformatted such that all elements on a given column of the array are applied to a second beam forming processing element.
