摘要:
A multi-point communications system is set forth herein. The communications system comprises a transmitter for transmitting OFDM/DMT symbols over a predetermined number of bins across a transmission medium. The OFDM/DMT symbols are generated using at least one timing signal. At least one of the predetermined number of bins includes a pilot tone sub-symbol having a frequency corresponding to the clock signal. The communications system also includes a receiver for receiving the OFDM/DMT symbols from the transmission medium. The receiver demodulates the received symbols using at least one timing signal. The receiver has a first pilot tone search mode of operation in which the receiver adjusts its timing signal to scan the frequency range of the predetermined number of bins looking for the pilot tone sub-symbol and identifies the bin including the pilot tone sub-symbol. The receiver further has a subsequent second pilot tone acquisition mode in which the receiver adjusts the timing signal to receive the identified bin containing the pilot tone sub-symbol and measures phase differences between successive pilot tone sub-symbols to thereby perform a further adjustment of the timing signal so that the pilot tone sub-symbol is received within a frequency range sufficient for subsequent phase locked loop processing thereof.

摘要:
In order to enhance the quality of a communication signal derived from speech and noise, the likelihood that the communication signals result from at least some speech is determined. A calculator calculates a first power signal representing the power of at least a portion of the communication signals estimated over a first time period and calculates a second power signal representing the power of at least a portion of the communication signals estimated over a second time period longer than the first time period. The calculator also generates a comparison signal having a value related to the likelihood that the portion of the communication signals result from at least some speech by comparing a first expression involving the first power signal with a second expression involving the second power signal. The calculator also generates a speech likelihood signal having a value representing a first likelihood that the communication signal results from at least some speech in the event that the comparison signal value falls within a first range and having a second value representing a second likelihood that the communication signal results from at least some speech in the event that the comparison signal value falls within a second range. The second likelihood is different from the first likelihood.
