    Abstract: Methods and systems for communicating in a wireless network may distinguish different types of packet structures by modifying the phase of a modulation constellation, such as a binary phase shift keying (BPSK) constellation, in a signal field. Receiving devices may identify the type of packet structure associated with a transmission or whether the signal field is present by the phase of the modulation constellation used for mapping for the signal field. In one embodiment, the phase of the modulation constellation may be determined by examining the energy of the I and Q components after Fast Fourier Transform. Various specific embodiments and variations are also disclosed.

    Abstract: In a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, multiple receive antennas produce a received signal vector, Y, which includes an element for each of the receive antennas. In an embodiment of a de-mapping method performed within a MIMO receiver, a quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) search is performed within a search space that includes the full constellation of symbol points. Based on the results of the QPSK search, the search space is reduced to fewer than all of the quadrants, and the received signal vector data is scaled and transformed to the reduced search space. A lower-level QPSK search is performed, and the process is repeated until the modulation order is reduced to a QPSK constellation. Hard or soft decisions corresponding to the search results may then be passed to a decoder.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus and systems are disclosed for block encoding/decoding information wireless networks having narrow decoding latency restrictions. A method includes identifying a length of information to be sent in a block code and encoding the information to be sent in the block code into one or more codewords, where the number of codewords and the amount of information encoded within each codeword is adjusted based on the identified length and to achieve a similar codeword error probability for each codeword considering available decoding time for decoding a last codeword is less than available decoding time for decoding a first codeword. In certain implementations low density parity check (LDPC) encoding may be used in combination with OFDM to provide reliable communications in a high throughput WLAN.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus provide increased symbol length with more subcarriers in a fixed-bandwidth system. The subcarriers spacing may be reduced to provide increased symbol length and enable higher throughput.

    Abstract: A system and method for decoding a channel bit stream efficiently performs trellis-based operations. The system includes a butterfly coprocessor and a digital signal processor. For trellis-based encoders, the system decodes a channel bit stream by performing operations in parallel in the butterfly coprocessor, at the direction of the digital signal processor. The operations are used in implementing the MAP algorithm, the Viterbi algorithm, and other soft- or hard-output encoding algorithms. The DSP may perform memory management and algorithmic scheduling on behalf of the butterfly coprocessor. The butterfly coprocessor may perform parallel butterfly operations for increased throughput. The system maintains flexibility, for use in a number of possible decoding environments.
