    摘要: A communication receiver includes a front end, which is arranged to receive a Radio Frequency (RF) signal, which includes modulated symbols carrying data that have been encoded by a block Forward Error Correction (FEC) code. The front end converts the RF signal to a sequence of soft received symbols, wherein the soft received symbols are subject to distortion by at least first and second noise components having respective at least first and second statistical distributions. A metric calculation unit is arranged to process the soft received symbols so as to extract parameters indicative of the at least first and second statistical distributions, and to compute FEC metrics based on the extracted parameters. A FEC decoder is arranged to accept the FEC metrics as input, and to process the metrics in an iterative FEC decoding process so as to decode the FEC code and reconstruct the data.

    摘要: A method for signal conversion includes generating a complex digital signal, which includes digital In-phase (I) and Quadrature (Q) components, for conversion into respective analog I and Q components by first and second Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs). A distortion generated by the DACS in the analog I and Q components is reduced by applying a phase rotation to the complex digital signal. After applying the phase rotation, the digital I and Q components of the complex digital signal are converted into the respective analog I and Q components using the first and second DACs.

Second data, including at least a portion of the first data, is sent over a second communication link from the source communication system to the destination communication system at a second data rate, which can be varied. First and second data rates of the respective first and second communication links are dynamically set. At least the portion of the first data is selectively extracted from one of the first and second data at the destination communication system.

An interference cancellation circuit in the receiver includes first and second adaptive filters, which are respectively coupled to filter the first and second streams of input samples using respective first and second coefficients to generate respective first and second filter outputs. A phase rotator is adapted to apply a variable phase shift compensating for a phase deviation between the first and second signals, the phase rotator having at least one configuration parameter. A control module is operative to estimate signal characteristics of the interference cancellation circuit and to set the at least one configuration parameter of the phase rotator responsively to the estimated signal characteristics.

    摘要: A method for communication includes receiving a signal, which carries data bits and is distorted by multiple impairments including one or more frequency offsets and one or more In-phase/Quadrature (I/Q) imbalances. A corrected signal is produced by applying to the received signal a sequence of corrections to compensate for the impairments. The sequence includes a first and a third correction of one correction type and a second correction of another correction type intervening between the first and third corrections in the sequence, the correction types consisting of frequency offset corrections and I/Q imbalance corrections. The data bits are extracted from the corrected signal.

    摘要: A method for communication includes transmitting data from a transmitter to a receiver using Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM). The data rate is set by selecting, based on feedback, an ACM profile defining a Forward Error Correction code and a modulation scheme. Upon detecting that the feedback is unusable, an operation of the transmitter is changed independently of the feedback.In another method, data is exchanged over two opposite directions of a bidirectional link that uses ACM by communicating using two ACM profiles. A joint constraint is defined on the two directions. The two ACM profiles are set based on first and second measured reception quality metrics of the two link directions, to meet the joint constraint. In yet another method, a subset of the ACM profiles is temporarily disabled, and the data is transmitted using only the ACM profiles that are not disabled.
