摘要: A communications circuit can operate in a first mode, such as a diversity mode including space time transmit diversity (STTD). In this mode, a number of equalizer filter portions connected to a number of post-equalizer processors are employed. When the diversity mode is not required, the extra equalizer filter portions would represent a waste of power consumption and/or chip space. A combining circuit and suitable control circuitry are provided to allow use of the additional equalizer filter portions to be made in other operating modes. Appropriate trade-offs can be made based on power consumption and performance.

摘要: A communications circuit includes a filter module with a sampling window, a control module, and an input buffer. The control module has a ray parameter interface to obtain information regarding significant ray changes that make it desirable to re-position the sampling window. The control module determines re-positioning parameters, responsive to this information, which reflect the re-positioning of the sampling window. The input buffer obtains samples of a received signal and outputs received signal data to the filter module. The filter module obtains the re-positioning parameters from the control module, and the filter module and control module temporally re-position the sampling window in duration and/or location in accordance with the re-positioning parameters, and output a filtered chip.

摘要: A multi-stage receiver including, in one embodiment, a sequence of processing stages. At least one of the processing stages includes a first processing block, a delay block, and a second processing block. The first processing block is adapted to receive an input signal and generate from the input signal one or more processing parameters. The delay block is adapted to generate a delayed signal. The second processing block is adapted to apply the one or more processing parameters to the delayed signal to generate an output signal. The delay block compensates for one or more processing delays associated with the generation of the one or more processing parameters by the first processing block.

摘要: The span of a linear transversal equalizer filter moves according to the current positions of the multi-paths to a receiver. The alignment of the filter span is measured quantitatively with respect to the current positions of the multi-paths. Adjustments are made to the filter span to enable the linear transversal filter to capture most of the available energy of the transmitted signal. The low-pass-filtered magnitudes of tap weights of the linear filter are multiplied with values of a function which has zeroes at desired points for the larger tap weights, and a gradient of the function at its zeroes being non-zero. The magnitude of the alignment measurement signal is used as a quantitative measure of the alignment of the equalizer span, while the sign of the alignment measurement signal can be used to decide the direction that the span should be moved in.

摘要: In described embodiments, a Decision Feed Forward Equalizer (DFFE) comprises a hybrid architecture combining features of a Feed Forward Equalizer (FFE) and a Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE). An exemplary DFFE offers relatively improved noise and crosstalk immunity than an FFE implementation alone, and relatively lower burst error propagation than a DFE implementation alone. The exemplary DFFE is a relatively simple implementation due few or no critical feedback paths, as compared to a DFE implementation alone. The exemplary DFFE allows for a parallel implementation of its DFE elements without an exponential increase in the hardware for higher numbers of taps. The exemplary DFFE allows for cascading, allowing for progressive improvement in BER, at relatively low implementation cost as a solution to achieve multi-tap DFE performance.

摘要: In one embodiment, a buffer-based method for generating codes (such as Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor (OVSF) codes) for spreading and despreading data, without using a chip-rate counter. First, a buffer is populated with initial values based on a received spreading factor and desired code index. Next, a timing strobe is received, and the values in the buffer are changed upon receipt of the timing strobe based on an algorithm that is independent of any count value associated with the timing strobe. Finally, a code sequence value is generated based on the values in the buffer.

摘要: In described embodiments, a Floating Tap, Feed Forward Equalizer (FT-FFE) achieves performance comparable to a full size, long FFE when equalizing wire line channels in, for example, SerDes receivers. A FT-FFE might be employed as a standalone datapath equalizer, or might be employed in conjunction with other equalization techniques.
