    摘要: Aspects of a method and system for providing visually related content description to physical layer are provided. A MAC layer and/or a PHY layer in a wireless communication device may be controlled for processing at least one media object in an audiovisual scene based on metadata information that corresponds to the audiovisual scene. The metadata information may result from, for example, MPEG-4 encoding of the audiovisual scene. Each media object may be forward error corrected based on a determined priority level, such as foreground and background priorities, that results from the metadata information. In this regard, the number of bits utilized for protection and/or the RF modulated scheme may be selected in accordance with the priority level. The RF modulation may be, for example, QPSK modulation or 16 QAM modulation. The metadata information and the processed media objects may then be wireless communicated.

    摘要: A method for controlling transmit power of a radio frequency integrated circuit begins by sampling a continuous transmit signal strength indication (TSSI) for a predetermined number of sampling cycles to produce a plurality of TSSI samples. The process then proceeds to determine a normalized TSSI from the plurality of TSSI samples. The processing continues by converting the normalized TSSI into an estimated transmit power. The process continues by comparing the estimated transmit power with a desired transmit power. The processing then continues by determining a transmit power error based on the comparison of the estimated transmit power with the desired power. The process then continues by adjusting gain of a transmit section of the radio frequency integrated circuit based on the transmit power error such that the estimated transmit power substantially matches the desired transmit power.

    摘要: A method for wireless communication between stations of differing protocols begins by determining whether protocols of target stations of a wireless communication are different than a protocol of a source station. The method continues by, when at least one of the target stations has a different protocol than the protocol of the source station, determining whether the wireless communication is a direct wireless communication or an indirect wireless communication. The method continues with the source station transmitting a frame to an access point, wherein the frame is formatted in accordance with the protocol of the source station, when the wireless communication is the indirect wireless communication. The method continues with the access point converting the frame into at least one alternate frame based on the protocol of the at least one of the target stations having the different protocol. The method continues with the access point transmitting the at least one alternate frame to the at least one of the target stations.

    摘要: A system for implementing an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing scheme and providing an improved range extension. The system includes a transmitter for transmitting data to a receiver. The transmitter includes a symbol mapper for generating a symbol for each of a plurality of subcarriers and a spreading module for spreading out the symbol on each of the plurality of subcarriers by using a direct sequence spread spectrum. The symbol on each of the plurality of subcarriers is spread by multiplying the symbol by predefined length sequences. The receiver includes a de-spreader module for de-spreading the symbols on each of the plurality of subcarriers. The de-spreader module includes a simple correlator receiver for obtaining maximum detection. The correlator produces an output sequence of a same length as an input sequence and the de-spreader module uses a point of maximum correlation on the output sequence to obtain a recovered symbol.

    摘要: A method for feeding back transmitter beamforming information from a receiving wireless communication device to a transmitting wireless communication device includes a receiving wireless communication device receiving a preamble sequence from the transmitting wireless device. The receiving wireless device estimates a channel response based upon the preamble sequence and then determines an estimated transmitter beamforming unitary matrix based upon the channel response and a receiver beamforming unitary matrix. The receiving wireless device then decomposes the estimated transmitter beamforming unitary matrix to produce the transmitter beamforming information and then wirelessly sends the transmitter beamforming information to the transmitting wireless device.

    摘要: A method for generating a preamble of a frame for a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) wireless communication begins by, for each transmit antenna, generating a carrier detect field. The method continues by, for a first grouping of the transmit antennas, generating a first guard interval, and at least one channel sounding field. Continuing, the method applies cyclical shift prior to transmission via the first grouping of the transmit antennas. When the MIMO wireless communication includes more than the first grouping of the transmit antennas, for another grouping of the transmit antennas. For the another grouping of the transmit antennas, generating at least one other channel sounding field. The method proceeds by generating the first guard interval prior to the at least one other channel sounding field, and applying another cyclical shift prior to transmission via the another grouping of the transmit antennas.
