    摘要: A formatted data unit that was transmitted by a transmitter is received at a receiver. Received signal points are determined based on the received formatted data unit. Actual transmitted signal points corresponding to the received formatted data unit is determined at the receiver based on information known a priori by the receiver. An error is determined between the received signal points and the actual transmitted signal points determined at the receiver. An indicator of impulse noise is generated based on the error.

    摘要: A downconversion downconverts a received signal. The downconverted signal includes IQ mismatch. A compensation module generates a compensated signal based on (i) the downconverted signal and (ii) an IQ mismatch compensation value. First and second mixers mix the compensated withal with first and second oscillating signals, respectively. First and second Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) modules perform FFTs on outputs of the first and second mixers to generate a first and second FFT signals, respectively. An IQ mismatch estimation module captures portions of the first and second FFT signals generated in response to the received signal including a first and second predetermined sequences. The IQ mismatch estimation module generates the IQ mismatch compensation value based on: the portions of the first and second FFT signals; the first predetermined sequence; and the second predetermined sequence.

    摘要: A device including a transmitter, a receiver and an arbiter. The transmitter transmits a first signal. The first signal has a fundamental frequency in a first frequency band of a first wireless protocol. The receiver receives a second signal. The second signal has a fundamental frequency in a second frequency band of a second wireless protocol. The first frequency band is adjacent to or at least partially overlaps the second frequency band. The arbiter allows the transmitter to transmit the first signal in the first frequency band while the receiver receives the second signal in the second frequency band. The arbiter also, if a power level of the first signal is less than a first threshold, changes: a modulation and coding scheme of the transmitter for the first signal; a modulation and coding scheme of the receiver for the second signal; or a multiple input and multiple output rank.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with estimating noise in a receiver device based on related properties of order statistics are described. According to one embodiment, a method includes generating an initial set of magnitude squared values from a time domain impulse response of a receiver device. The method also includes generating an initial noise power estimate based on a modified set of magnitude squared values and generating a threshold value based on the initial noise power estimate. The method generates a final noise power estimate by averaging values of the initial set of magnitude squared values that are less than the threshold value and removing a thresholding bias from the resulting average.
