    摘要: A spread spectrum radio transceiver includes a high data rate baseband processor and a radio circuit connected thereto. The baseband processor preferably includes a modulator for spread spectrum phase shift keying (PSK) modulating information for transmission via the radio circuit. The modulator may include at least one modified Walsh code function encoder for encoding information according to a modified Walsh code for substantially reducing an average DC signal component to thereby enhance overall system performance when AC-coupling the received signal through at least one analog-to-digital converter to the demodulator. The demodulator is for spread spectrum PSK demodulating information received from the radio circuit. The modulator and demodulator are each preferably operable in one of a bi-phase PSK (BPSK) mode at a first data rate and a quadrature PSK (QPSK) mode at a second data rate. These formats may also be switched on-the-fly in the demodulator. Method aspects are also disclosed.

    摘要: In a direct sequence spread spectrum receiver, an apparatus for obtaining and adjusting bit synchronization. In one aspect, the bit synchronization is adjusted by selectively inverting a clocking circuit to delay sampling by one-half a clock cycle and to combine the inversion with a skipping of one cycle to advance the sampling by one-half cycle. In another aspect of the invention, the synchronization circuit avoids overflow of accumulating components by downshifting both the partial sums and the input data when needed.

    摘要: A method of estimating signal quality in a radio demodulator receiving an input stream of symbols includes the steps of sampling a phase-only portion of each of the symbols in the input stream, determining a phase error for each of the samples of the phase-only portions, and calculating a signal quality estimate from a plurality of the sample phase errors. The signal quality estimate may be an average magnitude of a predetermined number of sample phase errors. The input stream may be symbols in the preamble, or symbols in the data signal that follows.

    摘要: A digital data radio receiver and method evaluates a data signal preamble received on an antenna to determine whether the antenna should receive the data signal following the preamble. The receiver determines frequency offsets from a desired frequency for each symbol in a block of symbols in the preamble, determines the variance of the frequency offsets, determines the average magnitude of the symbols in the block of symbols, where the determination of average magnitude may be performed in parallel with the determination of variance of the frequency offsets, and evaluates the variance and the average magnitude for the block of symbols to determine whether the preamble is actually noise and to assess reception quality at the antenna. In a two antenna diversity receiver system, these steps may be performed first on a block of symbols received at one antenna and then performed on the next block of symbols received at another antenna. This provides two evaluations that may be compared to select the antenna with the best reception.
