摘要:
A transmitter inserts parity samples into a stream of information symbols in an inter-symbol correlated (ISC) signal. The inserted parity samples may be utilized to generate estimates of corresponding information symbols when they are received by a receiver. The information symbols may be pulse shaped by a first pulse shaping filter characterized by a first response. The parity samples may be pulsed shaped by a second pulse shaping filter characterized by a second response. The first response and the second response are diverse or uncorrelated. The transmitter may transmit the ISC signal comprising the pulse shaped information symbols and the pulse shaped parity samples. The parity samples may be generated utilizing a non-linear function over a plurality of the information symbols. The non-linear function may be diverse from a partial response signal convolution corresponding to the information symbols and is designed according to a desired SNR value at the receiver.
摘要:
A method and system for dynamic configuring of one or both of a transmitter pulse-shaping filter and a receiver pulse-shaping filter to generate a total partial response that incorporates a predetermined amount of inter-symbol interference (ISI). The predetermined amount of ISI is determined based on an estimation process during extraction of data from an output of the receiver pulse-shaping filter, such that performance of total partial-response-based communication matches or surpasses performance of communication incorporating filtering based on no or near-zero ISI. The reconfiguring may comprise obtaining data relating to changes affecting one or more of: the pulse-shaping filtering, and a channel and/or an interface used in the communication of data based on the total partial response, and adjusting the filter configuration, such as by determining a new optimized filtering configuration or changes to existing configurations (e.g., by applying a filtering optimization process).

A receiver may process a received signal to generate a processed received signal. The receiver may generate, during a sequence estimation process, an estimate of a phase error of the processed received signal. The receiver may generate an estimate of a value of a transmitted symbol corresponding to the received signal based on the estimated phase error. The generation of the estimate of the phase error may comprise generation of one or more phase candidate vectors. The generation of the estimate may comprise calculation of a metric based on the one or more phase candidate vectors. The calculation of the metric may comprise phase shifting the processed received signal based on the estimated phase error resulting in a phase-corrected received signal. The calculation of the metric may comprise calculating a Euclidean distance based on the phase-corrected received signal and one or more symbol candidate vectors.
摘要:
Methods and systems are provided for coarse phase estimation for highly-spectrally efficient communications. An example method may include, equalizing, in a receiver, a received inter-symbol correlated (ISC) signal to generate an equalized ISC signal. A phase adjustment signal may be generated based on an ISC feedback signal. The ISC feedback signal may be generated using a sequence estimation process and a non-linearity function. A phase of the equalized ISC signal may be adjusted using the generated phase adjustment signal, to generate a phase adjusted partial response signal. The phase adjustment signal may be generated based on a phase difference between the equalized ISC signal and the partial response feedback signal. At least one ISC vector may be generated by buffering samples of the phase adjusted ISC signal.

A transmitter comprises a symbol mapper operable to map a frame of bits to a frame of symbols, where the symbols correspond to a determined modulation scheme, and circuitry operable to convert the frame of symbols to a physical layer signal and transmit the physical layer signal onto a communication medium. The circuitry is operable to process the physical layer signal such that a first portion of the physical layer signal is a first type of signal (e.g., a linear signal and/or non-ISC signal) and a second portion of the physical layer signal is a second type of signal (e.g., nonlinear signal and/or ISC signal). The first portion of the physical layer signal may comprise a header, a preamble, and/or a payload of the frame. The second portion of the physical layer signal may comprise a header, a preamble, and/or a payload of the frame.
摘要:
A receiver receives an inter-symbol correlated (ISC) signal with information symbols and a corresponding parity symbol. Values of information symbols are estimated utilizing parity samples that are generated from the parity symbols. One or more maximum likelihood (ML) decoding metrics are generated for the information symbols. One or more estimations are generated for the information symbols based on the one or more ML decoding metrics. A parity metric is generated for each of the one or more generated estimations of the information symbols. The parity metric is generated by summing a plurality of values of one of the generated estimations to generate a sum, and wrapping the sum to obtain a parity check value that is within the boundaries of a symbol constellation utilized in generating the information symbols.
摘要:
A modulator and demodulator pair may switch configurations without introducing errors as a result of the switch. Different configurations may, for example, correspond to different symbol rates and/or different amounts of controlled inter-symbol interference (ISI) introduced to the transmitted signal. For example, a first configuration may use be a near-zero ISI configuration (e.g., using Nyquist signaling) and a second configuration may introduce a significant (e.g., amount that would result in errors above a desired threshold if demodulation relied on symbol-by-symbol slicing) but controlled amount of ISI (e.g., using partial response or faster-than-Nyquist-rate signaling). Switching between modulator/demodulator configurations may be needed to maintain a stable link in the case of dynamic channels. At any given time, a modulator and demodulator pair may, for example, switch to a configuration that provides maximal throughput for the current channel conditions.

摘要:
A receiver may be operable to receive a signal. A sequence estimation module of the receiver may generate estimated symbols corresponding to the received signal. The generating of the estimated symbols may use tap information associated with one or both of a pulse shaper via which the signal was transmitted and an input filter of the receiver. The sequence estimation module may generate a reconstructed signal based on the estimated symbols and the tap information. A feed forward equalizer (FFE) of the receiver may adapt a plurality of tap coefficients of the FFE based on the reconstructed signal. The signal may be equalized via the FFE. The adaptation of the tap coefficients of the FFE may be based on a least-mean-square (LMS) process for minimizing a mean square of the error signal. An output signal of the FFE may comprise a power gain compensation.
