摘要:
A two-stage block synchronization and scrambling module includes a synchronization PRNG module, a scramble PRNG module, a summing module, and a storage module. The synchronization PRNG module is clocked once per N+1 bit PCS frame (N arbitrary) to produce a synchronization bit and a pseudo-random starting state for the scramble PRNG. The scramble PRNG module is clocked N times per PCS frame to produce a cipher stream starting with a pseudo-random state from the synchronization PRNG. The summing module is operably coupled to sum the cipher stream and a PCS frame payload to produce scrambled payload. The storage module is operably coupled to store the scrambled payload with the synchronization bit. Synchronization bits from successive frames are a running bit-serial representation of the synchronization PRNG state and are used by the receiver to synchronize with the transmit scrambler.

LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) coded 128 DSQ (Double Square QAM) constellation modulation and its associated labeling. A novel means is introduced by which a constellation may be arranged and mapping in its symbols may be determined to provide for improved performance. One application area in which this may be employed is transmission over twisted pair (typically copper) cabling existent within data centers of various networks. The operation of the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet local area networks currently being used (as well as those currently under development) would benefit greatly by employing the various principles presented herein. When this novel approach of an LDPC coded 128 DSQ constellation modulation combined with TH (Tomlinson-Harashima) preceding is employed within a communication device at a transmitter end of a communication channel (i.e., in a transmitter and/or a transceiver), the overall operation of a communication system may improve significantly when compared to prior techniques.

A method and apparatus is disclosed to map a sequence of data to Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) constellation symbols. The method and apparatus encodes only a portion of the sequence of data and leaves a remaining portion of the sequence of data unencoded. The encoded portion of the sequence of data and the remaining unencoded portion of the sequence of data are then mapped into modulation symbols of the QAM constellation. The encoded portion of the sequence of data selects subsets of the QAM constellation, and the remaining unencoded portion of the sequence of data determines a specific modulation symbol within each subset of the QAM constellation.

摘要:
Certain aspects for the start-up procedure of transceivers supporting higher data rates over twisted-pair copper cabling are provided for 10 Gbit/sec Ethernet links (10GBASE-T). During a PMA (physical medium attachment) training period of the start-up procedure, long PMA training frames are exchanged periodically between link partners. A significant portion of each PMA training frame consists of known pseudo random sequences simultaneously transmitted over four wire pairs. PMA training frames include an InfoField for exchanging parameters and control information between link partners. For example, the InfoField's payload comprises fields for indicating current transmit power backoff (PBO), next PBO, requested PBO, transition count, control information, and for communicating precoder coefficients. Information in InfoFields is repeated and is not necessary that a link partner decodes every InfoField. For example, by occasionally reading the transition count, a link partner can determine when a change in transmit PBO and/or a state transition is to occur.
