    摘要: A decoder for a modulation scheme is configured to operate close to the radio noise floor. A correlation value may be constantly updated, in an effort to match to a signature to a preamble of a packet. A low clamp value may act as a floor to which a calculated correlation value is set, if it is less than the low clamp value. If a correlation threshold is exceeded, then the correlation value is examined to determine it is a peak value. If the peak is found, power of the preamble is compared to a power threshold that is relative to the radio noise floor. If the power threshold is exceeded, positive correlation is detected. A channel optimizer is used to remove the frequency misalignment. This enables the use of a filter that is approximately equal to the occupied bandwidth of the incoming signal, further rejecting noise and interference.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a receiver of the invention has a detector coupled to a digital processor. The detector is adapted to mix the received PSK signal with a local oscillator (LO) signal having a time-varying phase offset with respect to the carrier frequency of the PSK signal to produce a digital measure of the PSK signal. The digital processor is adapted to: (i) estimate a frequency offset between the carrier frequency of the PSK signal and the LO signal; (ii) remove from an angular component of the digital measure a component corresponding to the frequency offset to generate a frequency-offset-adjusted signal; (iii) for each time slot of the PSK signal, estimate the phase of a respective PSK constellation symbol based on an angular component of the frequency-offset-adjusted signal and an angular component of a recursive function; (iv) estimate a phase differential for a PSK-symbol transition based on two consecutive phase estimates; (v) map each estimated phase differential onto a phase increment corresponding to a symbol transition in the PSK constellation; and (vi) recover a data sequence encoded in the PSK signal based on the mapping results.

    摘要: A local area network is based on a ring of twisted pair cable links (UTP), each carrying at least 1.4 Mbps gross data rate. Each station on the network includes an encoder and a following station includes a decoder for PSK (phase shift keying) modulated serial data. The encoder uses an analog sine wave oscillator and inverter for generating antiphase analog sine wave signals at a carrier frequency and a switching circuit for selecting between the carrier signals according to the data signal to be transmitted. The decoder may use a simple integrator and comparator arrangement. The encoder and decoder may be provided in the form of an adapter circuit, such that a network based on optical fibre can be replaced by a network based on twisted pair cable using the same digital circuits. Generation of the PSK waveform by analog circuitry rather than digital synthesis reduces radio frequency emissions to a level suitable for use in an automotive audio/video communications network.

    摘要: A method is disclosed of demodulating a signal (20) modulated by differential quadrature phase shift keying so that two bits of information are coded into each symbol period. The method comprises using a high frequency clock to determine the time taken (t.sub.1, t.sub.2, t.sub.3, t.sub.4), for the modulated signal to execute a predetermined number of cycles, such as 21, in the symbol period (T) and comparing the time thereby determined with the time (t.sub.o) of execution of the predetermined number of cycles for an unmodulated signal.

    摘要: A system and process for receiving phase-coherent FSK signals having data and clock components which includes a plurality of subsystems and a means for carrying data among the subsystems. At least two of the subsystems are able to communicate by means of a transmitter in one of them and a receiver in the other. The receiver includes a demodulator for separating the data and clock components of the encoded phase-coherent FSK signals. The clock demodulator includes a first transition detector and a 90-degree phase shift circuit which both receive the encoded signal. A second transition detector receives the output of the phase shift or phase delay circuit. An OR gate receives the output of the first and second transition detectors to produce a four times clock signal. The data component of the phase-coherent FSK signal is recovered by either of two alternate circuits. The first circuit uses a shift register which examines at least four samples of data in conjunction with a pair of exclusive OR gates, a NOR gate, and a flip-flop. An alternate data component demodulator includes a first 90-degree phase delay circuit and an inverter both receiving the encoded data and transmitting it to a first exclusive OR gate. A second 90-degree phase delay circuit receives the output of the first exclusive OR gate. A second exclusive OR gate receives the outputs of both the second phase delay circuit and the first exclusive OR gate.

    摘要: Baud timing is derived from an AC signal having n half-cycles during each baud period, for use in demodulating a carrier signal bearing digital information via some predetermined variation in a characteristic of the carrier signal during each baud period, by converting the carrier signal characteristic variation to a DC signal, sampling the DC signal at the same point during each half-cycle of the AC signal, summing the samples corresponding to the same half-cycle of the AC signal within each sequence of AC signal half-cycles occurring over successive baud periods, there being n such sample totals, identifying the largest one of the n totals and sychronizing the baud timing signal to the AC half-cycle corresponding thereto.

    摘要: The invention relates to a filter device (341, 342) for detecting and/or removing erroneous components like noise, deformations, glitch components or other errors in and/or from a signal, to a demodulation device using the filter device, to an information transmission system using the demodulation device and to a method for detecting a noise impulse in an input signal (Cα(t), Cα[k]). The filter device includes a summing element (510-51N, 610) connected to a correction element (540, 640). The summing element (510-51N, 610) sums the input signal (Cα(t), Cα[k]) within a reference interval (N) and the correction element (540, 640) verifies the summed input signal (IS[k]) with at least one signal condition (0, N+1, ΔCα[k]). Finally, the correction element (540, 640) outputs a predetermined signal (Cαα[k]) based on the result of the verification between the summed input signal (IS[k]) with at least one signal condition (0, N+1, ΔCα[k]). The foregoing filter device is able to remove noise from an input signal. This stabilizes the input signal against environmental influences occurring e.g. during signal transmission.

    摘要: Systems and methods for fine symbol timing estimation are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a wireless receiver includes a differential detector, a correlator, a coarse symbol timing estimator, and a fine symbol timing estimator. The differential detector is configured to detect phase differences in a received preamble signal modulated using differential phase shift keying. The correlator is configured to correlate symbol values output by the differential detector against a reference sequence. The coarse symbol timing estimator is configured to generate a coarse symbol timing estimate, and to generate a coarse timing sample symbol index value corresponding to the coarse symbol timing estimate. The fine symbol timing estimator is configured to generate a fine symbol timing estimate that is more accurate than the coarse symbol timing estimate based on the coarse timing sample symbol index value and correlation samples at index values preceding and succeeding the coarse timing sample index value.

    摘要: One embodiment of a DPSK receiver includes an ADC, a down-sampler, and a timing tracker. The ADC samples a received DPSK signal providing sub-samples of a digital signal. The timing tracker examines differences between amplitudes of currently selected sub-samples and sub-samples before and after the currently selected sub-samples. The differences may indicate a timing adjustment may be made to the digital signal. The timing tracker may change the timing of the digital signal by modifying the configuration of the down-sampler. Additionally, the timing tracker may also correct phase errors introduced by configuration changes of the down-sampler.
