Abstract:
An iterative low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoding system comprises a first shift register for storing bit estimates, a plurality of parity-check processing node banks configured for processing the bit estimates for generating messages, combiners configured for combining the messages with the bit estimates for generating updated bit estimates, and fixed permuters for permuting the updated bit estimates to facilitate storage and access of the bit estimates. A second shift register is provided for storing the messages, and a subtraction module subtracts messages generated a predetermined number of cycles earlier from the updated bit estimates.
Abstract:
A wireless communications network uses a beamforming process to increase signal quality as well as transmission capabilities and reduction of interference. An improved Golay sequence is also used in the wireless communications network. In one aspect, the processes can be used to communicate regardless of whether the system is on an OFDM mode or a single carrier mode.

A wireless network uses an improved frame structure to increase timing acquisition capabilities as well as reduction of spectral lines. In one aspect, the frame packet can be used to communicate the different modes of operation under which the packet was created.

Abstract:
A wireless device couples an electronic device employing a wired-link protocol to, for example, a wireless personal area network (WPAN). The wireless device comprises a wired interface configured for coupling to the electronic device, a wired transceiver coupled to the wired interface, the at least one wired transceiver configured for functioning as a terminus of a wired link coupled to the electronic device, and a wireless transmitter or transceiver coupled to the wired transceiver and configured for functioning as a terminus of a wireless link in the WPAN. The wireless device may be configured for coupling a plurality of dissimilar wired devices together via a wireless link.
Abstract:
A multi-mode transmission system supporting OFDM and single-carrier signals is configured to perform interpolation and decimation such that the ratio of the interpolation factor to the decimation factor equals the ratio between the OFDM sampling rate and the single-carrier chip rate. A constant-envelope modulator comprises a π/4 fixed rotator, a π/2 continuous rotator, and in-phase and quadrature-phase analog Bessel filters. Frame formats and signaling protocols are provided for signal acquisition, synchronization, and tracking between wireless devices that employ different antenna configurations. Spreading gains are selected to compensate for different antenna gains such that the total gain (antenna gain plus spreading gain) is substantially equal for transmissions employing different beam patterns.

Abstract:
A method of communicating over a wideband communication channel divided into a plurality of sub-channels comprises dividing a single serial message intended for one of the plurality of communication devices into a plurality of parallel messages, encoding each of the plurality of parallel messages onto at least some of the plurality of sub-channels, and transmitting the encoded plurality of parallel messages to the communication device over the wideband communication channel.
Abstract:
Systems and methods of ultra-wideband communication are provided. In one ultra-wideband communication system, a portion of a plurality of non-overlapping communication sub-channels are assigned to a first ultra-wideband communication device by a base station. Communication interference information is obtained by the first device, and then transmitted to and received by the base station. The base station then reduces the portion of non-overlapping sub-channels assigned to the first ultra-wideband communication device in response to the interference information, thereby creating a group of available non-overlapping sub-channels, which are assigned to a second ultra-wideband communication device. This Abstract is provided for the sole purpose of complying with the Abstract requirement rules that allow a reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the disclosure contained herein. This Abstract is submitted with the explicit understanding that it will not be used to interpret or to limit the scope or the meaning of the claims.
