摘要:
A system and method are provided for non-causal channel equalization in a communications system. The method comprises: establishing a first threshold (V1) to distinguish a high probability “1” first bit estimate; establishing a second threshold (V0) to distinguish a high probability “0” first bit estimate; establishing a third threshold (Vopt) to distinguish first bit estimates between the first and second thresholds; receiving a non-return to zero (NRZ) data stream; comparing the first bit estimate in the data stream to a second bit value received prior to the first bit; comparing the first bit estimate to a third bit value received subsequent to the first bit; in response to the comparisons, determining the value of the first bit.

A system and method are provided for non-causal channel equalization in a communications system. The method comprises: receiving a non-return to zero (NRZ) data stream input; establishing thresholds to distinguish a first bit estimate; comparing the first bit estimate in the NRZ data stream to a second bit value received prior to the first bit, and a third bit received subsequent to the first bit; in response to the comparisons, determining the value of the first bit; tracking the NRZ data stream inputs in response to sequential bit value combinations; maintaining long-term averages of the tracked NRZ data stream inputs; adjusting the thresholds in response to the long-term averages; and, offsetting the threshold adjustments to account for the asymmetric noise distribution. Two methods are used to offset the threshold adjustments to account for the asymmetric noise distribution: forward error correction (FEC) decoding and tracking the ratio of bit values.

A system and method are provided for coding a frame in a packet communications system using a G.709 Digital Wrapper Frame format. The method comprises: accepting digital information; outer encoding the digital information with a Reed Solomon (RS) encoding scheme; interleaving the outer encoded information; inner encoding the interleaved information using a BCH encoding scheme; and, forming a G.709 Digital Wrapper frame including payload and parity bytes. More specifically, a standard DW superframe is formed with 122,368 bits of payload and 8192 bits of parity. The outer encoding process uses an RS(1023,1007) parent code. In one aspect, 15 groups of RS(781,765) and 1 group of RS(778,762) codewords are formed per superframe. The inner encoding process uses a BCH(2047,1959) parent code. In one aspect, 64 groups of BCH(2040,1952) codewords are formed per superframe.

A system and method are provided for non-causal channel equalization in a communications system. The method comprises: establishing three thresholds; receiving a binary serial data stream; comparing the first bit estimate in the data stream to a second bit value received prior to the first bit; comparing the first bit estimate to a third bit value received subsequent to the first bit; data stream inputs below the first threshold and above the third threshold are a “0” if both the second and third bits are “1” values, and as a “1” if either of the second and third values is a “1”; data stream inputs above the second threshold and below the third threshold are a “1” if both the second and third bits are a “0” value, and as a “0” if either of the second and third values is a “0”.

A system and method are provided for using an analysis of forward error corrections (FEC) in a digital communications signal as feedback information to improve the performance of an analog receiver system. The FEC decoder supplies the number of “1” bit and “0” bit corrections made to a control unit. In response to the FEC corrections, the control unit changes receiver control parameters. The control signal modifies processing in the receiver front end to achieve the fewest number of FEC corrections.

A system and method have been provided for translating digitally wrapped communications between networks using different protocols. This invention makes use of an integrated circuit (IC) relay with programmable features to modify the locations and functions of overhead bytes between the receive and transmit sides of the device, permitting two dissimilar networks to be bridged. That is, the IC relay converts frame formatting from one frame structure to another, so that incompatible networks can communicate.

A system and method is provided which describe a self-healing bidirectional lines switch ring (BLSR) communication node. Two interconnected relay elements, having default and duplex input and output ports, enable bidirectional communications through a node. In the event of a ring failure, the relays can be enabled to return communications to a source node so that the ring remains unbroken.
