    摘要: A technique for processing received signals in multiple-antenna systems. Received signals from the different antennas may be amplified by a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and time-multiplexed by a switch to form a single analog signal. The time-multiplexed analog signal is down-converted and processed using a single RF chain for each signal component. This may result in an N-fold decrease in hardware in multiple antenna receiver systems.

    摘要: A technique weights noise power used in a demodulation/demapping process using on an estimate of interference and its associated power. Using this technique the effect of partial interference can be ameliorated. For example, a value, σ2, can be used to represent the estimated noise and interference power, and σ2 can be used to modify a received signal to ameliorate the effects of noise and interference. σ2 can be adjusted in response to partial interference, and can be represented by the formula: σ2=σN2+q σI2, where σN2 is “noise power,” σI2 is “interference power,” and q is an interference correction factor.

    摘要: A technique for low-complexity high-performance coherent demodulation of GFSK signals involves utilizing a novel phase and frequency tracking mechanism coupled with a trellis search technique to track signal memory in the demodulation process. A method according to the technique may include modeling modulation based upon a trellis. The method may further include estimating unknown parameters, selecting a maximum likelihood path through the trellis, and mapping the maximum likelihood path to an output bit sequence. The technique is also applicable to DSPK and other applicable known or convenient protocols.

    摘要: The use of multiple GPS sensors provides the conceptual framework for novel techniques for reducing the minimum signal strength required by a GPS assistance system to acquire and accurately track GPS satellites at or near the horizon. A strong signal attenuation system for synthesizing GPS satellite-specific I/F signals, enabling more efficient and effective acquisition of GPS satellites, is disclosed, comprising N+1 reference GPS sensors, each with an omni-directional antenna and front end, for down converting composite GPS satellite signals, and strong signal suppression (SSS) means for synthesizing, from the I/F signals produced by the N+1 reference GPS sensors, a set of one or more I/F signals (corresponding to a set of designated satellites), each with at least N of the strongest potentially-interfering satellite signals suppressed.
