摘要： An architecture for use in wireless receiver applications, particularly for ADC conversion of received in-phase I and quadrature Q signals. A single ADC is shared to convert both signals, and the ADC input is alternately switched between the i and q signals. In an embodiment, the ADC is clocked at an increased sample rate, and the digital output signals are aligned to compensate for the phase difference resulting from the implementation of the single ADC.

摘要： A simplified architecture is disclosed for ADC conversion of received in-phase I and quadrature Q signals. Circuit area is substantially reduced by sharing a single ADC to convert both signals, switching the ADC input alternately between the i and q signals. In an embodiment, the ADC is clocked at an increased sample rate, and the digital output signals are aligned to compensate for the phase difference resulting from the implementation of a single ADC. Aligning includes delaying one of the digital signals, and interpolating the other one of the digital signals in a low pass filter so as to compensate for the phase difference introduced by the sampling during the first and second time intervals. The first and second time intervals are equal to a predetermined ADC sample period corresponding to a sample clock cycle. Delaying the first digital signal includes a delay of 1/2 clock cycle.

摘要： In one embodiment, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) receives a radio frequency (RF) signal and converts the RF signal into a digital signal at an intermediate frequency. The ADC uses a sampling frequency that is a multiple of the intermediate frequency to perform the conversion. A selector receives the digital signal and outputs a combined in phase and quadrature signal at a plurality of sampling points based on the sampling frequency. A filter receives the combined in phase and quadrature signal and outputs a baseband in phase baseband signal and a baseband quadrature baseband signal.

摘要： In a method for generating a data unit for transmission via a communication channel, wherein the data unit conforms to a first communication protocol, a preamble of the data unit is generated. The preamble includes a first field having information that indicates a duration of the data unit, the first field being formatted such that the first field is decodable by a receiver device that conforms to a second communication protocol but does not conform to the first communication protocol to determine the duration of the data unit based on the first field. Additionally, the preamble is formatted such that a portion of the preamble is decodable by a receiver device that conforms to a third communication protocol but does not conform to the first communication protocol. Also, the preamble is formatted such that a receiver device that conforms to the first communication protocol can determine that the data unit conforms to the first communication protocol. A data portion of the data unit that conforms to the first communication protocol and does not conform to either (i) the second communication protocol or (ii) the third communication protocol is generated.

摘要： Method and system for carrier recovery and estimation of Doppler shift from a signal source that is moving relative to a signal receiver. A pure carrier preamble for the received signal is processed through each of two stages of a linear predictor to obtain a successively more accurate estimation of a Doppler frequency offset for the carrier. The received signal is downconverted by each stage estimation of the Doppler frequency offset, and the downconverted signal is processed through a decision feedback phase locked loop to provide a signal in which substantially all of the Doppler offset and/or phase angle are identified and removed. The system has low complexity, is fast, and is accurate to within an estimated few tens of Hertz and will work with signals having relatively low signal-to-noise ratios. The invention is useful for receipt of signals from satellites in low earth orbits (LEOs) and other non-geosynchronous orbits, and wherever a transmitter and receiver are moving relative to each other.
