For a received signal, the embodiments may develop several phase error estimates relative to each point of a constellation, the number and location of points of the constellation depending on the modulation technique of the received signal. In addition to calculating the phase error estimates, the embodiments may also calculate weights, or probabilities, associated with each of the estimates.

The composite phase error estimate may be used to correct the received signal and eliminate or reduce the impact of the phase error.

    摘要: Embodiments of a broadcast receiver and method for optimizing a scale factor in a log-likelihood ratio (LLR) mapper are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the broadcast receiver includes an LLR mapper to generate LLRs from demodulated data samples, a low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoder to generate decoded data from the LLRs, and an LLR optimizer to dynamically select a scale factor for the LLR mapper based on a number of iterations for convergence of the LDPC decoder. In some embodiments, the LLR optimizer iteratively revises the scale factor during receipt of broadcast signals until the number of iterations of the iterative decoder is either minimized for convergence or minimized for convergence failures.

    摘要: According to various embodiments, devices and methods disclosed herein include performing, using a processor, a linear operation on a first plurality of channel frequency responses and a plurality of corresponding predictor coefficients to estimate a new channel frequency response. Each of the plurality of corresponding predictor coefficients may be updated based on an error value and a second plurality of channel frequency responses to obtain an updated predictor coefficient. The error value may be computed based on an estimated current channel frequency response and a predicted current channel frequency response. The new channel frequency response may be used to equalize a received modulated signal including a single-carrier modulated signal, e.g., a signal modulated using a vestigial sideband modulation scheme, or a quadrature amplitude modulation scheme.
