    摘要: Apparatus for generating the family of PSK (phase shift keyed) modulations, which include BPSK (binary PSK), QPSK (quaternary PSK), MSK (minimum shift keying) and the like. The carrier is generated with the desired digital information already phase-modulated onto it by directly introducing a phase shift or delay onto the error path of a phase-locked loop. causing the phase-locked loop to create the phase modulation. The [proposed scheme differs from common practice approaches, which are usually implemented by linear synthesis (an AM technique); rather, it] invention employs direct nonlinear synthesis (an FM technique). The invention [yields good phase precision with arbitrary spectral shaping under the constraint of constant envelope signaling. It] permits the connection of the output of a simple, inexpensive VCO (voltage controlled oscillator) directly to a system's antenna without the need for intervening circuit elements such as phase splitters, mixers, and the like which is applicable to [. The resulting minimal implementation will lend itself well to] the power, size and cost constraints of a microminiature radio transmitter as might be required, for example, for the up-link of a wrist-phone style communicator.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for detecting control signal information for an element of a communication system. The control signal information is included in one or more segments of a signal communicated over a communication system channel. The invention provides for the application of a plurality of tapers to a segment of a communicated signal; the transformation of a tapered segment; the determination of a similarity score based on a transform of a tapered segment and a model of a control signal; the identification of control signal information based on a similarity score; and the creation of an indicator signal representative of the identified control signal information to the communication system element. The control signal information may comprise a dual-tone multi-frequency signal. The tapers may comprise a discrete prolate spheroidal sequence. A similarity score may be determined based on a ratio of energy distributions. The numerator of the ratio may comprise an energy distribution based on a control signal model, and the denominator of the ratio may comprise an energy distribution based on a difference between a transformed tapered segment and the control signal model.

    摘要: Supervisory audio tones received from a mobile telephone unit are converted from analog to digital form. The tone is then converted to a complex number by bifurcating the tone path and multiplying one path by a sine function and the other path by a cosine function. The complex numbers are accumulated and the frequencies where significant power exists is found using the discrete Fourier transform. If the power at an assigned frequency exceeds a threshold, the corresponding supervisory audio tone is declared to have been detected.

    摘要: This inventions provides techniques for estimating both temporal and spectral channel fluctuations with the duration of a data symbol. Certain pulse shaping functions are Discrete Prolate Spheroidal Sequences (DPSSs) and are used primarily because of their relatively limited Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) properties. During reception, these properties allow one or more parameters of a joint time-frequency channel model to be more easily determined. Once the one or more parameters are determined, they can be applied to received symbols to correct the temporal fluctuations, spectral fluctuations, or both of the channel over which a communication took place. The techniques may be adapted for the Multiple-In, Multiple-Out communication situation.

    摘要: A data signal is processed to change its form and spectral content without introducing undesirable frequency and amplitude effects. Multiple data signal states, which determine the essential characteristics of the output signal wave configuration, are utilized in conjunction with clock signals at a rate substantially in excess of twice the largest frequency component of the data signal in order to read from a memory a bit-duration waveform sample set representing the desired output signal wave configuration. Predistortion to compensate for anticipated transmission effects is also included in that configuration. In one embodiment, an input data signal is in an NRZ format and is processed for conversion to the biphase, or Manchester, format by a ROM table look-up function addressed jointly by the input signal states and the clock signals.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are disclosed for equalizing a channel using improved channel estimates. The present invention assumes that fading will follow a statistical model and obtains an improved channel estimate using one or more basis functions to describe the channel based on known channel statistics. A Karhunen-Loeve expansion can be used for channel estimation to describe the channel. Waveforms are selected that are matched to characteristics of the channel, such as transmission waveforms whose energy is largely restricted to a bandwidth assigned to the channel. Coefficients are estimated for the basis functions using real-time data.

    摘要: Systems and techniques for location determination. A plurality of tags emitting radio frequency signals are dispersed throughout a region, such as a building, within which a user's location is to be determined. The radio frequency signals emitted by the tags include information that can be used to identify the location in which the tags axe placed, or simply to distinguish the tags from one another. A portable device receives signals from the tags and provides the signal information to a location server that computes the location of the portable device by comparing the signal information received from the portable device to a map of location venus stored signal information, and identifies the location of the portable device as the location for which the stored signal information best matches the signal information received from the portable device.
