摘要： Embodiments achieve favorable performance-complexity trade-offs in MIMO detection for three or more channel inputs. Some embodiments describe systems and methods comprising a leaf node predictor for receiving a processed communications stream, determining at least one channel metric corresponding to the communications stream for a given channel realization, and generating at least three instructions to output, which at least one instruction corresponds to at least one predicted best leaf node candidate for the given channel realization. Further embodiments alternatively describe systems and methods which enumerate N1 best values of a first symbol, enumerate N2(i) best values of a second symbol for an i-th best value of the first symbol, enumerate N3(i, j) best values of a third symbol for an i-th best value of the first symbol and j-th best value of the second symbol, combine enumerated best values of each symbol into a leaf-node value, and compute the cost of each leaf-node value enumerated.

摘要： A method of communicating in a wireless network including a plurality of nodes having communications devices including a first node, wherein at least one node utilizes a first physical layer (PHY) modulation, and at least one other node utilizes a second PHY modulation different from the first PHY modulation. The first node receives a PHY frame transmitted by one of the plurality of nodes, and identifies a PHY modulation type selected from the first PHY modulation and the second PHY modulation used in the PHY frame or to be used in a subsequently to be received PHY frame or frame portion. The first node decodes the PHY frame or the subsequently to be received PHY frame or frame portion using the PHY modulation type identified in the identifying step.

摘要： A method and system for estimating noise variance. A method for noise variance estimation comprises receiving a first multi-sample symbol and receiving a second multi-sample symbol. The first multi-sample symbol is subtracted from the second multi-sample symbol to produce a set of noise samples. The set of noise samples is used to produce a noise variance estimate. The noise variance estimate is applied in various tasks (e.g. channel estimation, log-likelihood ratio computation, and/or minimum mean squared error equalization) to process data provided to a user.

摘要： Disclosed herein is a system and method for determining the presence of rotated-BPSK modulation. In addition, disclosed herein is a system and method for determining if a received packet is a Legacy, Mixed-Mode, or Green-Field packet in accordance with the determination of the presence of rotated-BPSK modulation. The presence of a Green-Field packet may be determined by detecting if additional tones are being excited in an LTF symbol of the received packet and/or if a SIG field symbol following the LTF symbol is modulated by rotated-BPSK. The presence of a Mixed-Mode packet may be determined by detecting if the first four bits of the SIG field symbol following the LTF symbol are [1 1 0 1] and/or detecting if a symbol following an L-SIG symbol is modulated by rotated-BPSK. The presence of a Legacy packet may be determined by detecting if the symbol following the L-SIG symbol is modulated by BPSK.

摘要： Embodiments of the invention provide a system and method of hybrid automatic repeat-request (HARQ) processing. A viterbi decoder is coupled to and follows a descrambler. After the signal has been de-scrambled, it can be stored in a memory in case it needs to be recombined with another packet. This means that the log-likelihood ratios LLRs for each transmitted bit are stored in memory using a finite number of bits (for example, between 4 and 12 bits). If the packet that is currently being processed contains retransmitted information, then the de-scrambled output stored from a previous packet containing the same information can be loaded and combined with the current packet.

摘要： A packet detection and coarse symbol timing recovery system for preamble signal modulated with rotated differential M-ary phase shift key (PSK) modulation includes a differential detection unit, to provide a symbol signal responsive to a received signal. A preamble sequence correlator performs a preamble sequence correlation on the symbol signal to produce a correlator signal. A metric calculation unit performs a metric calculation on the correlator signal to produce a metric. A packet detection unit determines that a packet is detected and produces a sample index. A coarse symbol timing unit finds a peak of the calculated metric signal outputs a sample index for the peak as coarse symbol timing information. The sample indexes are used in processing a physical layer convergence procedure (PLCP) header and physical layer service data unit (PSDU) block.
