    摘要: Methods and systems for calibrating a transmitter with I/Q imbalance and local oscillator feed-through include generating a test tone, frequency up-converting the test tone, monitoring one or more features of the up-converted test tone, and adjusting one or more features of the transmitter in response to the monitoring. The monitoring optionally includes monitoring a beating of the envelope of the up-converted test tone. In an embodiment, a first harmonic of the up-converted test tone is monitored for local oscillator feed-through (LOFT). Alternatively, baseband data inputs to the transmitter are disabled, and LOFT is measured by measuring power at the transmitter output. A second harmonic of the up-converted test tone is monitored for gain and phase imbalances. The adjusting optionally includes adjusting a gain imbalance, adjusting a phase imbalance, and/or adjusting a DC offset. The adjusting optionally includes an iterative refinement process.

    摘要: A calibration device for use in a radio receiver enables receiver self-calibration and self-correction of inbound RF signals. The calibration device includes an estimation module for receiving a sample digital packet and calculating imbalance parameters as a function of a portion of the sample digital packet. The calibration device further includes a correction module for applying the imbalance parameters to a received digital packet of an inbound RF signal to produce a corrected digital packet. The received digital packet may be a portion of the sample digital packet, the complete sample digital packet or a new packet.

    摘要: An integrated circuit radio transceiver and method therefor is operable to flexibly and efficiently de-interleave a received communication signal by initially changing a received signal from the time domain to the frequency domain to generate a plurality of tones that are then rearranged in a first de-interleaving step to an order expected by a downstream decoder. Thereafter, the tones are detected to generate a soft bit sequence and are then reverse-swizzled and de-interleaved. The de-interleaving step is performed in a manner that compensates for row/column offset interleaving performed by a transmitter that transmitted the received signal being processed.

    摘要: An integrated circuit radio transceiver and method therefor is operable to flexibly and efficiently interleave a digital bit stream arranged in a table characterized by N rows and N columns further including interleaving column and row bits in the table and frequency rotating interleaved bits in one interleaving step by extracting bits beginning at a row and column offset value specified for the table wherein the first extracted bit is not the first stored bit in the table. Subsequently, the transceiver and method are operable to swizzle interleaved and frequency rotated data bits extracted from the table. In one embodiment, the swizzling begins at a selectable and specified phase value. Further, a stream parser is configurable to produce any number of output streams based upon any number of input streams.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are provided for selecting a transmission mode based upon a length of at least a portion of a packet to be transmitted. A packet is transmitted in a multiple antenna communication system by selecting a transmission mode based on a length of at least a portion of the packet. The transmission mode can indicate a number of antennas or date rate (or both) to be used for the transmission. A transmission mode can also be selected based on, for example, (i) a mode selection table that records an expected transmission time for a packet for each supported transmission mode or (ii) one or more packet length thresholds each having a corresponding transmission mode. ACK (acknowledgment) packets can be transmitted using a predefined transmission mode, such as a SISO mode (or a lower order MIMO mode than the original packet), or based on a predefined relationship between the transmission mode of the original packet and the corresponding transmission mode that should be used to acknowledge the packet.
