    摘要: A low frequency timing circuit is used to reestablish a timing signal in a high-frequency timing circuit after the high frequency timing circuit has lost and regained power. The timing of the low frequency circuit is measured against the timing of the high frequency circuit before the high frequency circuit has lost power. The low frequency circuit then is used to measure time after the high frequency circuit has lost power. Once the high frequency circuit has regained power, its timing signal is reestablished at an appropriate time based on a time measurement obtained from the low frequency circuit.

    摘要: Communications systems, and particularly portable personal communications systems, such as portable phones, are becoming increasingly digital. One area that has remained largely analog, however, is the modulation and RF amplifier circuits. To produce a RF frequency waveform. An output of a class D amplifier is coupled to an integrator to create an analog signal. A resonant circuit shapes an output waveform based on the analog signal to create a sinusoidal RF broadcast signal. The waveform of the class D amplifier may be duty cycle modulated. Digital modulation may occur using a digital sigma delta modulator or a digital programmable divide modulator. Using the digital modulation techniques and class D amplification techniques together allows for broadcast a PSK signal that has been decomposed into amplitude and phase components.

    摘要: Modern digital integrated circuits are commonly synchronized in their workings by clock circuits. The clock frequency for a circuit must take into account the propagation delay of signals within the critical path of the circuit. If the clock time is not adequate to allow propagation of signals through the critical path, improper circuit operation may result. The propagation delay is not a constant from circuit to circuit, and even in a single circuit may change due to temperature, power supply voltage and the like. Commonly, this variation is handled by assuming a worse case propagation delay of the critical path, and then designing the clock frequency and minimum power supply voltage of the circuit so that the circuit will function under worst case conditions. However, instead of assuming a worse case propagation delay of the critical path, the propagation delay may be measured in an actual circuit path that has been constructed to be the equivalent to, or slightly worse than, the propagation delay of the critical path. By knowing the actual worst case propagation delay, the circuit may be modified to operate with lower power supply voltages, conserving power and/or to controlling the frequency of the clock, so that the clock may be operated at or near the circuit's actual, not theoretical worst case limit. Such modifications of power supply voltage and/or clock frequency may occur during circuit operation and thus, adapt the circuit to the different operating parameters of each circuit.

    摘要: A constant envelope modulator and transmit architecture for a wireless communication system is provided and a method for operating the same. The constant envelope modulator includes a differential encoder which receives data to be transmitted and creates in-phase and quadrature components of a modulation signal to be transmitted. The in-phase and quadrature components are passed through digital filters in order to give the modulation a particular shape. The in-phase and quadrature components of the modulation signal have both phase information and amplitude information on the modulation, where the constant envelope modulator removes the amplitude modulation (AM) information from the modulation signal to provide constant envelope in-phase and quadrature modulation signals and an accompanying AM envelope signal. The resultant constant envelope in-phase and quadrature modulation signals are combined at a radio frequency for transmission into a constant envelope phase modulation signal. The constant envelope phase modulation signal is fed through a non-linear power amplifier to bring the modulation signal to a proper output power level for transmission. The AM content of the modulation signal is then reintroduced into the constant envelope phase modulation signal at the non-linear power amplifier after the point of amplification of the constant envelope phase modulation signal in order to reintroduce the amplitude information into the signal. The constant envelope modulator and transmit architecture of the present invention allows the entire structure to be operated in an efficient, non-linear mode.

    摘要: A system for a closed power control feedback loop allows for the use of a non-linear amplifier for amplifying a phase modulated (PM) signal while introducing an inverse version of the desired amplitude modulated (AM) signal into the feedback loop using a variable gain element. By introducing an inverse version of the desired AM portion of the signal into the power control feedback loop, the non-linear, and highly efficient, power amplifier may be used to amplify only the PM portion of the signal, while the AM portion is introduced by the power control feedback loop. In another aspect of the invention, an inverse version of the AM portion of the desired transmit signal is introduced into the power control feedback loop of an amplifier that is amplifying both a phase modulated signal and an amplitude modulated signal. By introducing an inverse version of the desired AM signal into the power control feedback loop, the power control feedback loop may not cancel the AM component present at the output of the power amplifier. In yet another aspect of the invention, the desired AM signal is injected into the feedback loop along with the power control reference signal.

Pre-fetch and post-store of the correct address is determined by an address generator 58 according to a rule determined by a context register 52. An index indicative of this address is stored in an index register 54. The data, context, and index registers together form a streamer 56, streaming data between the CPU 46 and data memory 60. The rule of the context register 52 also drives a converter 62 for converting data between memory format and register format. The speed and flexibility of a RISC device is combined with the intensive memory access of a digital signal processor.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to amplitude based pre-distortion calibration of an RF communications terminal, such as a cell phone, by transmitting a first standard RF transmit burst from the RF communications terminal to an RF test instrument, which assimilates the first standard RF transmit burst. A calibration control system extracts information regarding the first standard RF transmit burst from the RF test instrument; determines amplitude based distortion of the RF communications terminal using the extracted information; determines amplitude based pre-distortion calibration information using the determined amplitude based distortion; and calibrates the RF communications terminal using the amplitude based pre-distortion calibration information. By using a single-shot transmit burst, calibration times may be minimized. To calibrate the RF communications terminal at multiple transmit frequencies, multiple single-shot transmit bursts may be used, such that each single-shot transmit burst is at a different calibration frequency.
