摘要:
A method of achieving reduced modulation range requirement in a Digitally Controlled Oscillator (DCO) which is deployed as part of a DRP (Digital Radio Processor) and tuned to a tuning frequency range having operating-channel center-frequencies, wherein phase difference between consecutive samples is termed as FCW (Frequency Control Word), uses the steps of digitally modifying and limiting the FCW so that the FCW does not exceed known FCW thresholds, e.g., chosen from π/2, π/4, π/8, and redistributing the FCWs while maintaining a cumulative sum of phases and without significant EVM (Error Vector Magnitude) degradation. The FCW threshold can be chosen arbitrarily and need not be in the form of π/2n. The method uses a FCW limiting algorithm which reduces supply voltage sensitivity of the DCO and enables significant reduction in area of capacitor bank which would be otherwise needed.

A personal navigation device configured to determine heading readings continuously using data from a sensor in the personal navigation device. Heading readings are selected corresponding to a periodic event. A representative heading is determined from the selected heading readings. When a portion of the selected heading readings has a value within a range of the representative heading, a static heading indicator is asserted to indicate the personal navigation device is moving in a static heading. The static heading indicator may be used to smooth an estimated trajectory of the personal navigation device.

A transmitter used in a communication system includes a raised cosine filter for transmit pulse shaping. A receiver in the communication system, designed to receive and demodulate transmissions from the transmitter, includes a root-raised cosine filter for receive pulse shaping. The use of a raised cosine filter in the transmitter enables reduction of peak-to-average ratio (PAR) of the output of a power amplifier used in the transmitter, enabling the power amplifier to be implemented to have relatively higher power efficiency than otherwise. In an embodiment, the transmitter and receiver employ π/2-shift binary phase-shift keying (π/2 BPSK), and the raised cosine filter in the transmitter is implemented to have a roll-off factor of 0.5 and a total length of four symbol periods. In an embodiment, the root-raised cosine filter is implemented to have a roll-of factor of 0.2 and a length of four symbol periods.

Methods and integrated circuits for performing receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM) in global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers are disclosed. In an embodiment, a first information comprising current position related information is accessed. A second information comprising predicted position related information is accessed based on previously received information. A solution is computed based on the first information and the second information and a presence of outlier information is determined in at least one of the first information and the second information based on the solution.
摘要:
The present invention provides a system for obviating interference effects in packet detection within a wireless communications network. A plurality of reference signals is provided—a first of which corresponds to desired packets, and the remainder of which correspond to undesired packets or interference. A plurality of cross-correlation constructs corresponds, respectively, to the plurality of reference signals. Each cross-correlation construct correlates an incoming signal to a plurality of repetitions of its respective reference signal. An analysis construct compares output from each cross-correlation construct with other cross-correlation construct outputs, and with a threshold value, to determine which incoming signal corresponds to desired packet data. Once this incoming signal is identified, packets from the signal may be reliably received.
