摘要:
A method of mixed-scaling-rotation CORDIC (MSR-CORDIC) with scaling-free rotational operations is disclosed. An elementary angles set is extended by representing the elementary angles as the arctangent of the division of two single signed-power-of-two terms to an enhanced extended elementary angles set. A combination of elementary angles is found from the enhanced extended elementary angles set such that the residue angle error can be minimized. A MSR-CORDIC operation is used to perform the rotating and scaling transformation simultaneously.

The present invention provides a soft-threshold-based multi-layer decision feedback equalizer, including a feed forward filter for receiving a transmitted data, a feed backward filter, an adder and a soft-threshold-based multi-layer decision engine (STM engine). The adder is coupled to an output end of the feed forward filter and an output end of the feed backward filter, and generating an output of the equalizer. The STM engine includes a threshold detector, a data detector and a state machine. The STM engine detects whether or not the output of the equalizer is in a defined threshold value so as to determine the STM works as a slicer or delay decision.

An efficient method for calculating the step-sizes for a frequency-domain equalizer of a discrete-multitone communications system using signal power estimation and tone grouping (SPE-TG) while on-line. The SPE-TG method is used to calculate a plurality of subchannel step-sizes which are then stored in a lookup table. When on-line, the method uses signal power estimation to select step sizes for each tone, and uses these step sizes for frequency domain equalization. The SPE-TG method simplifies the calculations necessary for frequency domain equalization, thereby saving significant hardware and/or processing resources. The SPE-TG method is reliable and robust, and does not depend upon assumptions about the line, location, or channel.

A fast convergent pipeline adaptive decision feedback equalizer using a post-cursor processing filter is disclosed, which includes a feed-forward equalizer, a post-cursor processing filter, an adder, a slicer, a register, a pipelined feedback equalizer, a subtractor and a updating device. The pipelined feedback equalizer has a delay device coupled to the register for delaying its output signal, and a feedback equalizer coupled to the delay device for eliminating the post-cursor of the output signal. By using the post-cursor processing filter (PCF), it increases the operating clock rate with arbitrary speedup factor, and improves the convergence rate of the overall system.

A discrete multi-tone (DMT) communication system is provided herein, replacing the conventional inversed discrete Fourier transform (IDFT) and DFT with IDHT (together with the complex-to-real transformation) and a DHT alone respectively at the transmitting end and the receiving end. A DHT-based frequency-domain equalizer (FEQ) at the receiving end equalizes each of the 0-th to (N−1)-th DHT subchannels, where N is the number of point of the DHT. Finally, each of the 0-th to ( N 2 - 1 ) - th subchannels of the DMT system is obtained by combining the k-th and (N-k)-th subchannels of the DHT-based FEQ for k=0, 1, . . . , ( N 2 - 1 ) .

An on-chip data transmission device. The on-chip data transmission device comprises a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter transmits a control signal and a packet when a logic level of the control signal changes, wherein the logic level of the control signal changes every clock cycle, and the clock cycle is determined by an input signal clock A. The receiver receives the transmitted control signal and a clock B having a clock rate as same as clock A, generates a mixed clock having a phase substantially the same as the phase of the clock B, and receives one transmitted packet per clock B cycle.

A DHT-based frequency-domain equalizer (FEQ) at the receiving end equalizes each of the 0-th to (N−1)-th DHT subchannels, where N is the number of point of the DHT. Finally, each of the 0-th to (N/2−1)-th subchannels of the DMT system is obtained by combining the k-th and (N-k)-th subchannels of the DHT-based FEQ for k=0, 1, . . . , (N/2−1).
