Abstract: A method of detecting transient changes in the distribution of a discrete time series includes: operating in a sparse mode wherein, at sniff periods successively repeated at a first rate, at most K test phases are performed, K being an integer superior or equal to two, each test phase consisting of analyzing, by a sampling stopping time determination unit, samples of the time series captured by a sampler at sampling times according to a second rate which is higher than the first rate to provide a positive or negative result of the test phase. If the results of K successive test phases of a sniff period are each positive, the method switches to operate in a dense mode wherein the sampler is operated to continuously capture samples of the time series at sampling times according to the second sampling rate.

Abstract: A receiver for Filter Bank Multicarrier frequency spread signals such as FBMC, FBMC/OQAM, OFDM, comprises a linear phase rotation module adapted to introduce a linear phase rotation to a received time domain signal, a discrete Fourier transform and a Finite Impulse response digital filter. The coefficients of the digital filter define a shift of the frequency response of the prototype filter of the receiver, and the coefficients of the digital filter are fixed so as to compensate the linear phase rotation introduced by the filter. The frequency shift introduced may be equal to the reciprocal of a power of two of the modulation sub carrier spacing.
