摘要:
A method and apparatus provide efficient synchronization recovery at the receiver end for a digital transmission system. At the receiving end, a digital signal is received including a transmitted data portion and a guard period. A signal envelope for the received digital signal is determined, and the signal envelope is filtered to find the center of the guard period, which provides a time reference for the received digital signal. Embodiments of the present invention described herein may be used for optimal operation of a digital transmission system by efficiently recovering synchronization from a received digital signal during noisy conditions without being dependent on signal shape or requiring complicated threshold calculations.

An open loop power control system for an orthogonal frequency division modulation (OFDM)-based fixed/mobile wireless system. A preferred system and method comprise measuring signal strength of received interference-free pilot tones transmitted by a base station; determining pathloss according to received power level of pilot tones; and controlling transmit power level of the remote unit by adjusting transmitting channel attenuation according to the pathloss determined in the preceding step. The method may further comprise monitoring at the base station the received signal level of uplink pilot tones; checking if received signal level of uplink pilot tones is outside pre-set limits around the target level at the start of each call; and sending a command to the mobile station over the broadcast channel to increase or decrease the transmitting power level.

The high quality PCS communications are enabled in environments where adjacent PCS service bands operate with out-of-band harmonics that would otherwise interfere with the system's operation. The highly bandwidth-efficient communications method combines a form of time division duplex (TDD), frequency division duplex (FDD), time division multiple access (TDMA), orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), spatial diversity, and polarization diversity in various unique combinations. The method provides excellent fade resistance. The method enables changing a user's available bandwidth on demand by assigning additional TDMA slots during the user's session.

摘要:
A new method makes the most efficient use of the scarce spectral bandwidth in a wireless discrete multitone spread spectrum communications system by updating the spectral and/or spatial spreading weights at a rate that is determined by the measured quality of the link. Low quality links require more frequent updates of the spreading weights than do higher quality links. Spreading weights and despreading weights for a station are adaptively updated, depending on the error in received signals. If the error value is less than a threshold error value, then the method maintains the existing spreading weights as the current spreading weights to apply to an outgoing data signal. Alternately, if the error value is greater than the threshold error value, then the method adaptively calculates updated despreading weights at the base station from the first spread signal and calculates updated spreading weights as the current spreading weights from the updated despreading weights to apply to the outgoing data signal.

摘要:
A system, apparatus and method is disclosed for multiband wireless communication. Frequency bands and/or transmission formats are identified as available within a range for wireless communication. Signal quality metrics for each frequency band are evaluated by a receiver to identify qualified frequency bands. The qualified frequency bands can be ranked according to one or more signal quality metrics, where the list of qualified bands can be communicated to a transmitter. The transmitter is arranged to evaluate the list of qualified bands and select a communication method based on the available frequency bands and a selected communication optimization scenario. Multiple frequency bands and communication methods can be utilized by the transmitter such that a combination of licensed, unlicensed, semilicensed, and overlapped frequency bands can be simultaneously used for communication. The receiver continually monitors communications and can report link performance to the transmitter for adaptive control of the selected communication methods.
摘要:
Automatic gain control (AGC) methods and apparatus suitable for use in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) receivers are described. One AGC method includes the steps of repeatedly performing a first AGC process which adjusts amplifier gain based on determining that a signal level of multiple time sample values is outside a limit set by a first predefined threshold; and repeatedly performing a second AGC process which adjusts the amplifier gain based on determining that a signal level of multiple frequency sample values associated with a plurality of pilot tones is outside a limit set by a second predefined threshold. Preferably, the first AGC process is performed repeatedly at a first rate and the second AGC process is performed repeatedly at a second rate that is less than the first rate.
