摘要:
A time-based decision feedback equalizer (TB-DFE) circuit may include a voltage-to-time converter configured to convert a communication signal into a time-based signal. A timing of when an edge of the time-based signal occurs is indicative of a voltage level of the communication signal. The circuit may include a plurality of delay circuits arranged to process the time-based signal in series to generate a delay data signal. The delay circuits may adjust the timing of when the edge of the time-based signal occurs, and a corresponding time delay introduced by each of the delay circuits may be based on a respective weighting factor applied to one or more samples of an output digital signal previously generated by the TB-DFE circuit. A phase detector may compare a timing of an edge of the delay data signal with a reference clock signal and generate the output digital signal based on the comparison.

The present disclosure relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system to be provided for supporting a data rate higher than that of a 4G communication system, such as LTE, and subsequent communication systems. The present disclosure relates to a method for transmitting a reference signal (RS) in a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of: configuring a transmission resource by including at least one resource block (RB), which does not map the RS, between two RBs, which map the RS, in a first subframe; transmitting a first message for directing an RB offset indicating a gap between the two RBs, which map the RS, and locations of the RBs, which map the RS; and transmitting the RS through the configured transmission resource.

A communication device for transmitting beamformed signals using implicit channel sounding is described. The communication device includes a processor and instructions stored in memory. The communication device receives one or more sounding signals and computes a channel estimate based on the one or more sounding signals. Frequency offset compensation is applied to the channel estimate by the communication device. The communication device also computes a precoding matrix based on the channel estimate and transmits a beamformed signal using the precoding matrix. Another communication device for receiving beamformed signals using explicit channel sounding is also described. The communication device includes a processor and instructions stored in memory. The communication device receives one or more sounding signals, computes a channel estimate based on the one or more sounding signals and applies amplitude compensation to the channel estimate. The communication device also sends estimated channel data and receives a beamformed signal.
摘要:
In one embodiment, a system includes one or more digital feedback equalizers (DFEs) that include one or more residual intersymbol interference (ISI) detectors, one or more column balancers, and one or more weight selectors. The residual ISI detectors produce a first output signal indicating whether the residual ISI of a received input signal has a positive sign or a negative sign. The column balancers select one of the first output signals to produce a second output signal. The weight selectors access one of the weight values. The weight value corresponds to the column balancer that produced the second output signal and the residual ISI detector that produced the first output signal, and has a magnitude that is substantially independent of the sign of the residual ISI. The weight selectors produce a third output signal based on the weight value and the sign of the residual ISI.

A programmable logic device is provided with adaptive equalization circuitry that is programmable in one or more respects. Examples of the programmable aspects of the equalization circuitry are (1) the number of taps used, (2) whether integer or fractional spaced taps are used, (3) what starting values are used in the computation of coefficient values, (4) whether satisfactory coefficient values are computed only once or on an on-going basis, (5) whether an error signal is generated using a decision directed algorithm or using a training pattern, (6) what training pattern (if any) is used, and/or (7) the location of the sampling point in the bit period of the signal to be equalized.

A clock-synchronized method for universal serial bus (USB) is described. The method includes the following steps of: (a) a transmitter sends a periodic signal to a host unit during a first time interval; (b) the host unit transmits a first equalization training sequence signal to a receiver during a second time interval to train the receiver and the transmitter continuously sends the periodic signal to the host unit; (c) a clock and data recovery device extracts the first equalization training sequence signal during the second time interval to generate a extracted clock signal and a data signal; and (d) the transmitter sends a second equalization training sequence signal to the host unit based on the extracted clock signal during the third time interval to train the host unit and the receiver and the transmitter commonly utilize the extracted clock signal as a reference clock.
