    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for dynamic single-frequency-network-(SFN)-multicast symbol synchronization. In an embodiment, a wireless-communication device (WCD) receives an SFN-multicast transmission at least in part by receiving a respective SFN-multicast-transmission signal from each site in a plurality of sites in a given SFN-multicast area, where each such received SFN-multicast-transmission signal has a respective SFN-multicast cyclic prefix. The WCD calculates a multisource multipath delay spread (“MMDS”) that is characteristic of the received plurality of SFN-multicast-transmission signals, and determines whether that calculated MMDS exceeds a threshold MMDS. If so, the WCD selects a multicast timing point that is after the SFN-multicast cyclic prefix of a first-received one of the received SFN-multicast-transmission signals. If not, the WCD selects a multicast timing point that is within the SFN-multicast cyclic prefix of the first-received SFN-multicast-transmission signal. The WCD uses the selected multicast timing point to demodulate the received SFN-multicast transmission.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for canceling a blocking signal to obtain a desired signal. An example process includes receiving both a blocking signal and a set of blocking bits corresponding to a demodulation of the blocking signal. A remodulated blocking signal is generated by modulating the received set of blocking bits. The remodulated blocking signal is passed through a blocking-band bandpass filter to generate an estimated blocking signal, and is also passed through a desired-band bandpass filter to generate an unconditioned reference signal. One or more signal-parameter differences between the blocking signal and the estimated blocking signal are identified, and one or more signal compensations are accordingly applied to the unconditioned reference signal to generate a conditioned reference signal, which is then output to a blocking-signal-canceling system.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for embedding a supplementary data channel in OFDM-based communication systems. One embodiment takes the form of a process that includes obtaining a primary data signal that includes a given symbol, where the given symbol includes primary payload data prepended with a given cyclic prefix. The process also includes obtaining supplementary payload data. The process also includes identifying an available portion of the given symbol. The process also includes generating a modified primary data signal at least in part by replacing the available portion of the given symbol with a subset of the supplementary payload data. The process also includes outputting the generated modified primary data signal for transmission via an air interface.
