    摘要: 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.

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: An apparatus operable in a wireless communication system, the apparatus may include an FFT symbol buffer and a demapping device. The FFT symbol buffer can feed FFT symbol data derived from received communication signals to a channel estimation device and a shared buffer. The channel estimation device can also provide intermediate data to the shared buffer. The intermediate data may be in tile form and can be derived from the FFT symbol data. Further, the intermediate data can be stored in the shared buffer. The demapping device can extract the intermediate data from the shared buffer in various forms including sub-packet form.
