    摘要: In one embodiment, a receiver has a reference generator and a main equalizer. The reference generator equalizes a received signal using one or more pilot reference signals. Then, the reference generator decodes one or more predetermined data channels of the equalized signal, makes hard decisions on the data of each decoded channel, and regenerates the original coding sequence of each decoded channel. The main equalizer uses each re-encoded channel as an additional reference signal along with one or more pilot signals to equalize a time-delayed version of the received signal. In alternative embodiments, the receiver might also have a step-size generator which selects optimum step sizes from a look-up table based on the number of re-encoded channels and the power of those channels. The step size is then used by the main equalizer along with the re-encoded channels to equalize the time-delayed received signal.

    摘要: In one embodiment, the present invention is a method for reducing the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of a multi-carrier modulated symbol, such as an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) symbol. The method first transforms a set of data symbols into a multi-carrier modulated symbol. The method then uses the multi-carrier modulated symbol and a gradient-descent algorithm to generate a set of symbols for PAPR-reduction tones. The data symbols and the PAPR-reduction symbols are then transformed to generate an updated multi-carrier modulated symbol. The PAPR-reduction symbols are iteratively updated until a terminating condition occurs (e.g., an acceptable PAPR is achieved for the multi-carrier modulated symbol). In another embodiment, the method uses the multi-carrier modulated symbol generated in the first step and a gradient-descent algorithm to generate an updated multi-carrier modulated symbol directly, where the need for transforming the data symbols and the PAPR-reduction symbols is eliminated for subsequent iterations.

    摘要: In one embodiment, an equalizer equalizes two versions of a signal that are received through separate propagation paths, to generate one equalized signal. The equalizer comprises a single FIR filter and an NLMS updater. During each iteration, the NLMS updater supplies a set of coefficients to the FIR filter. The FIR filter processes samples of both the first and second versions by multiplying each sample by one coefficient in the set of coefficients to generate a number of products. The products are combined by a summation block to generate an equalized sample. The equalized sample is compared to a reference signal to generate an error measure used to update the set of coefficients. The samples of the received versions are then advanced and this process is repeated to generate further equalized samples. In further embodiments, the equalizer may process more than two versions of a signal.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a receiver has a main equalizer and an auxiliary equalizer. The auxiliary equalizer equalizes a received signal using adaptively generated sets of auxiliary filter coefficients. Each set is generated by 1) filtering a received signal to generate an equalized signal, 2) calculating an error based on the equalized signal, and 3) calculating the set of coefficients based on the error and the prior set of auxiliary filter coefficients. The main equalizer equalizes a delayed version of the input signal by first applying a set of auxiliary filter coefficients, copied from the auxiliary equalizer, to the delayed version. Then, the main equalizer continues to equalize the delayed signal using main filter coefficients that are adaptively generated in a manner analogous to that of the auxiliary equalizer. In other embodiments, the number of sets of auxiliary filter coefficients and the period in which the sets are copied may vary.

    摘要: In one embodiment, an algorithm dynamically selects a method for reducing distortion in a multi-carrier modulated signal, such as an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal. The algorithm directs a transmitter to transmit peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR)-reduction signals over reserved tones (i.e., frequencies) if reserved tones are available. If reserved tones are not available, then the algorithm directs the transmitter to transmit PAPR-reduction symbols over free tones if free tones are available. If the free tones for this transmitter are used by adjacent transmitters, then interference-reduction techniques may be used to reduce interference with the adjacent transmitters. If reserved tones and free tones are not available, then the transmitter may use an alternative method to reduce distortion, such as successive clipping and filtering. In another embodiment, the transmitter may transmit PAPR-reduction symbols over both free and reserved tones, if available.
