Abstract: A modem (for example, a modem within a cellular telephone) includes a plurality of Wireless Communication System Modem Sub-Circuits (WCSMSCs). Each WCSMSC receives a control signal generated by a corresponding one of a plurality of programmable timers. Each timer receives the same sequence of count values from a wall clock counter. A processor that controls overall modem operation can program a timer to generate a control pulse at a particular count time of the wall clock counter. The processor can also program a timer to generate a periodic control signal. The control signals output from the timers orchestrate when the various WCSMSCs start operating in the processing of a frame. By virtue of the programmability of the timers, the wall clock timer system is programmable to generate customized control signals such that frames of new and different protocols having arbitrary frame structures can be processed by the same modem/timer system.

Abstract: Techniques for increased finger demodulation capability in a hardware efficient manner are disclosed. In one aspect, I and Q samples are shifted into a parallel-accessible shift register. A plurality of chip samples are accessed from the shift register and operated on in parallel to produce a multi-chip result for a channel each cycle. These multi-chip results can be accumulated and output to a symbol-rate processor on symbol boundaries. The scheduling of shift register access, computation, and accumulation can be scheduled such that the hardware is time-shared to support a large number of channels. In another aspect, time-tracking of a large number of channels can be accommodated through channel-specific indexing of the contents of the shift register file. These aspects, along with various others also presented, provide for hardware efficient chip rate processing capability for a large number of channels, with a high degree of flexibility in deployment of those channels.

Abstract: A system involves a transmitting device (for example, a first wireless communication device) and a receiving device (for example, a second wireless communication device). In the receiving device, LLR (Log-Likelihood Ratio) values are stored into an LLR buffer. LLR bit width is adjusted as a function of packet size of an incoming transmission to reduce the LLR buffer size required and/or to prevent LLR buffer capacity from being exceeded. The receiver may use a higher performance demodulator in order to maintain performance despite smaller LLR bit width. In the transmitting device, encoder code rate is adjusted as a function of receiver LLR buffer capacity and packet size of the outgoing transmission such that receiver LLR buffer capacity is not exceeded. Any combination of receiver LLR bit width adjustment, demodulator selection, and encoder code rate adjustment can be practiced to reduce LLR buffer size required while maintaining performance.

Abstract: Techniques for encoding and decoding data are described. In an aspect, multiple code rates for a forward error correction (FEC) code may be supported, and a suitable code rate may be selected based on packet size. A transmitter may obtain at least one threshold to use for code rate selection, determine a packet size to use for data transmission, and select a code rate from among the multiple code rates based on the packet size and the at least one threshold. In another aspect, multiple FEC codes of different types (e.g., Turbo, LDPC, and convolutional codes) may be supported, and a suitable FEC code may be selected based on packet size. The transmitter may obtain at least one threshold to use for FEC code selection and may select an FEC code from among the multiple FEC codes based on the packet size and the at least one threshold.

Abstract: A flexible and reconfigurable digital system (for example, a wireless modem) includes a set of sub-circuits. Each sub-circuit includes a task manager and an amount of configurable hardware circuitry for performing a type of operation on a data stream. The task manager of a sub-circuit can configure and control the configurable hardware of the sub-circuit. A central processor configures and orchestrates operation of the sub-circuits by maintaining a set of task lists in a tightly coupled memory. Each task list includes task instructions for a corresponding sub-circuit. The task manager of a sub-circuit reads task instructions from its task list and controls its associated hardware circuitry as directed by the instructions. A timestamp task instruction and a push task instruction and the task list architecture allow modem sub-circuits to be easily reconfigured to operate in accordance with either a first air interface standard or a second air interface standard.
