Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides an apparatus that may include a transceiver operable to communicate with a receiver in a wireless network and adapted to select an optimal mode for transmissions, wherein the receiver estimates the optimal mode and feeds it back to the transceiver which changes a transmitted mode accordingly and wherein the optimal mode is based on a predetermined metric based on a performance equation that puts a threshold to separate between a high correlated signal to low correlation signal.

Abstract:
A method for detecting a preamble location in a multiple preamble OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system is disclosed. An OFDM signal is generated with a plurality of frames, and each of the frames includes symbols and a predetermined preamble symbol. A maximum FDDC (Frequency Domain Differential Correlator) value is computed for each of the symbols in some of the frames. The preamble location in a frame is determined by summing the maximum FDDC value for each symbol at a same frame location in consecutive frames of the OFDM signal.
Abstract:
Methods and arrangements for wireless communications are described. Embodiments include transformations, code, state machines or other logic to receive from a transmitter a signal representing a known sequence of symbols. The signal may be transmitted over a plurality of sub channels. The embodiments may also include determining channel responses at the sub channels and determining a reception of the known sequence. The determining may include treating the channel responses at the sub channels in a differential manner to cancel out channel phase responses and obtain channel amplitudes. In some embodiments, the cancelling may be performed by multiplying frequency domain values representing reception of a sub channel by the complex conjugate of frequency domain values of a neighboring sub channel. Many embodiments may also include calculating a carrier to interference and noise ratio (CINR) of the signal. In several embodiments, the signal may represent the preamble of a wireless frame.

Abstract:
A method for detectable a pre-amble location in a multiple preamble OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system is disclosed. An OFDM signal is generated with a plurality of frames, and each of the frames includes symbols and a predetermined preamble symbol. A maximum FDDC (Frequency Domain Differential Correlator) value is computed for each of the symbols in some of the frames. The pre-amble location in a frame is determined by summing the maximum FDDC value for each symbol at a same frame location in consecutive frames of the OFDM signal.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes methods, apparatus, and systems related to applying channel smoothing to beamformed vectors in wireless communications between a transmitter device and a receiver device. In a first aspect, a device is disclosed that identifies disruptions between at least two first beamforming vectors on adjacent frequencies in a communication channel between the device and a first device of a plurality of user devices. The device determines one or more second beamforming vectors proximate to the identified disruption. The device utilizes the one or more second beamforming vectors to smooth the communication channel between the device and the first device of the plurality of user devices.
Abstract:
A method for data storage includes storing data in a group of analog memory cells by writing respective input storage values to the memory cells in the group. After storing the data, respective output storage values are read from the analog memory cells in the group. Respective confidence levels of the output storage values are estimated, and the confidence levels are compressed. The output storage values and the compressed confidence levels are transferred from the memory cells over an interface to a memory controller.
Abstract:
A method for data storage includes assigning in a memory that includes one or more storage devices a first storage area for storage of user data, and a second storage area, which is separate from the first storage area, for storage of redundancy information related to the user data. Input data is processed to produce redundancy data, and the input data is stored in the first storage area using at least one first write command. The redundancy data is stored in the second storage area using at least one second write command, separate from the first write command.
Abstract:
A method for data storage includes defining a set of scrambling sequences, each sequence including bits in respective bit positions having bit values, such that a distribution of the bit values in any give bit position satisfies a predefined statistical criterion. Each data word is scrambled using a respective scrambling sequence selected from the set. The scrambled data words are stored in the memory device.
