    摘要: A novel framing method for a variable net bit rate digital communications system that utilizes a set of different QAM constellations and punctured trellis code combinations, each combination designated as a mode. This frame structure has a variable integral number of QAM symbols per frame depending on the selected mode, but the number of bytes and Reed-Solomon packets per frame is constant. This is achieved even though the number of data bits per QAM symbol for some modes is fractional. Also the number of trellis coder puncture pattern cycles per frame is an integer for all modes. This arrangement simplifies the synchronization of receiver processing blocks such as the Viterbi decoder, de-randomizer, byte de-interleaver, and Reed-Solomon decoder.

    摘要: A method and system for channel tracking in an adaptive equalizer for a digital data receiver. The method includes determining a first set of tap weights and a second set of tap weights of the equalizer, and determining a difference between the first and second sets of tap weights. The method also includes determining an error estimate based on symbols received at the receiver, comparing the error estimate with a divergence threshold, and determining a step size factor based on the difference and the comparison.

    摘要: A channel impulse response is determined from a cross-correlation of a received training sequence and a stored version of the transmitted training sequence. The channel impulse response is iteratively cleansed of noise caused by the finiteness of the cross-correlation. Initial values of the tap weights for the taps of an equalizer such as a decision feedback equalizer may be determined based on the cleansed channel impulse response.

    摘要: A response of a channel may be estimated by correlating a received signal and a training sequence, by forming a matrix Γ based on a desired shape for the peaks of the correlation, by extracting a vector y from the received signal, and by estimating the channel response from a least-squares solution based on the matrix Γ, the vector y, and a matrix formed from the elements of the known training sequence.

    摘要: A decision feedback equalizer is operated by making first symbol decisions from an output of the decision feedback equalizer such that the first symbol decisions are characterized by a relatively long processing delay, by making second symbol decisions from the output of the decision feedback equalizer such that the second symbol decisions are characterized by a relatively short processing delay, and by determining tap weights for the decision feedback equalizer based on the first and second symbol decisions. The first symbol decisions may be derived from the output of a long traceback trellis decoder. The second symbol decisions may be derived either from the output of a short traceback trellis decoder or from shorter delay outputs of the long traceback trellis decoder.

    摘要: A transmitter transmits successive data fields, and each data field includes a mix of VSB data segments and E-VSB data segments and interleaved portions of maps. The maps define the mixes of VSB data segments and E-VSB data segments in corresponding data fields to be transmitted after the corresponding maps are transmitted. Prior to interleaving, the maps are encoded. At a receiver, the maps are de-interleaved and de-coded so as to derive the mix of VSB and E-VSB data segments defining each of the data fields. The interleaving and de-interleaving have a combined latency of at least L fields. The VSB and E-VSB data segments of each of the data fields are separated in response to the de-interleaved maps.

    摘要: Received frame and field coded DCT coefficient blocks are downconverted to lower resolution reconstructed pixel field blocks so that, for example, HDTV programs can be played on NTSC receivers. The frame and field coded DCT coefficient blocks have motion vectors associated therewith. Specifically, the received frame coded DCT coefficient blocks are converted to converted field coded DCT coefficient blocks and an IDCT module is performed on the converted field coded DCT coefficient blocks to produce downconverted field residual or pixel blocks. Also, an IDCT is performed directly on the received field coded DCT coefficient blocks to produce downconverted field residual or pixel blocks. Reference pixel blocks are selected based upon the motion vectors, the reference pixel blocks are upsampled, and the upsampled reference pixel blocks are downsampled. The upsampled and downsampled reference pixel blocks form predictions that are added to the field residual blocks in order to form reconstructed pixel field blocks.
