    摘要: A system and method for communicating signals over a noisy channel is provided wherein an input signal may be sampled and modulated to make the signal more noise insensitive. In accordance with one embodiment, of the invention, an signal code modulation (SCM) scheme may be used wherein digital and analog signals representing the original signal are generated. In another embodiment, an original modulated signal may be demodulated and then remodulated using a more robust modulation scheme. The system may be used to a variety of applications including wireless internet access.

    摘要: In a satellite receiving system, program channels are selected from one or more broadband signals and combined with other selected channels and transmitted from a first unit, for example an outdoor unit, to a second unit, for example a gateway, server, or set-top box, using a single cable. Channels can be selected by digitizing the broadband signal then digitally filtering to isolate the desired channels. The outputs of several LNBs can be selected and combined into one signal. Multiple set-top boxes can receive independent signals over a single cable from the outdoor unit.

    摘要: A broadband local area data network uses coaxial cable wiring for interconnection of terminal devices. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with bit loading is used to overcome channel impairments and provide a path for terminal devices to transmit to and receive from other terminal devices. Probe messages are sent between devices to characterize the communication channel and determine optimum bit loading. The data network shares the cable spectrum with other services and uses frequency bands not used by other services. Adaptive power control can be used to maintain signal to noise ratio in a communication between terminal devices. Frequency coordination can be used to avoid interference between the LAN communications and other services transmitted on the cable.
