摘要:
A circuit is designed with a measurement circuit (432). The measurement circuit is coupled to receive a first input signal (903) from a first antenna (128) of a transmitter and coupled to receive a second input signal (913) from a second antenna (130) of the transmitter. Each of the first and second signals is transmitted at a first time. The measurement circuit produces an output signal corresponding to a magnitude of the first and second signals. A control circuit (430) is coupled to receive the output signal and a reference signal. The control circuit is arranged to produce a control signal at a second time in response to a comparison of the output signal and the reference signal.

A system comprises a wireless device that communicates across a spectrum having a plurality of sub-channels. The wireless device comprises a plurality of antennas through which the wireless device communicates with another wireless device, wherein each antenna communicates with the other wireless device via an associated communication pathway. The wireless device further comprises sub-channel power analysis logic coupled to the antennas and adapted to determine which communication pathway has the highest communication quality on a sub-channel by sub-channel basis. The wireless device still further comprises diversity selection logic coupled to the sub-channel power analysis logic and adapted to determine a weighting vector for an associated antenna based on the communication quality, wherein the weighting vector specifies a relative transmission power for each sub-channel for the associated antenna.

A resynchronization method for use in a data communication system having a first device configured to transmit data at a symbol rate to a second device. The second device includes a Reed Solomon (RS) decoder having a RS lock indicator and a Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) Protocol Interface (MPI) having a MPI lock indicator, wherein the RS and the MPI lock indicators are monitored. Four different states, defined by the values of the RS and MPI lock indicators, determine whether the data communication system will wait for the RS decoder and the MPI hardware block to resynchronize, whether an intermediate-subset of the channel acquisition algorithm is performed or whether the entire channel acquisition algorithm is performed. The method for resynchronization described herein recovers synchronization within a predetermined time without the layers above the physical link layer having knowledge.

A circuit for detecting a serial signal comprises a first circuit (400) coupled to receive the serial signal (200) during a predetermined plurality of time periods of substantially equal duration. The first circuit is coupled to receive a first code (414). The first circuit is arranged to compare a part of the serial signal corresponding to each time period of the plurality of time periods to the first code, thereby producing a match signal. The first circuit accumulates the match signal from each of the each time period of the plurality of time periods.

Systems and methods for fine symbol timing estimation are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a wireless receiver includes a differential detector, a correlator, a coarse symbol timing estimator, and a fine symbol timing estimator. The differential detector is configured to detect phase differences in a received preamble signal modulated using differential phase shift keying. The correlator is configured to correlate symbol values output by the differential detector against a reference sequence. The coarse symbol timing estimator is configured to generate a coarse symbol timing estimate, and to generate a coarse timing sample symbol index value corresponding to the coarse symbol timing estimate. The fine symbol timing estimator is configured to generate a fine symbol timing estimate that is more accurate than the coarse symbol timing estimate based on the coarse timing sample symbol index value and correlation samples at index values preceding and succeeding the coarse timing sample index value.

Embodiments of the invention provide a system and method for chip to chip communications in electronic circuits. A router or switch receives data packets at input port ASICs. A routing table on the input port ASIC or on a routing ASIC is used to identify a destination port ASIC based upon header information in the data packet. The data packet is transmitted from the input port ASIC to the destination port ASIC using millimeter wave signals that are transmitted across a waveguide or a wireless interface.

Conventional routers employ a wired backplane that employs “long reach” serializer/deserializer (SerDes) links, but this type of architecture is complicated, costly, and uses a considerable amount of power. To address some of these issues, a new wireless backplane architecture is provided here. This wireless backplane employs direct millimeter wave links between line cards that replaces the convention, wired switching fabric.
