摘要:
An Automatic Gain Control (AGC) method and system thereof. The power of a detected signal is first checked to ensure that it is large enough for AGC process. A power average of the detected signal is computed and compared to a first threshold in order to determine whether to proceed with a coarse tune procedure or enter a fine tune procedure. Both Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) gain and Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA) gain are tuned during coarse tune, whereas only the VGA gain is tuned during fine tune. The LNA and VGA gains are tuned to predetermined values during coarse tune, and the VGA gain is adjusted according to a difference between a computed average of power and a second threshold.

A method for frequency offset estimation in frequency domain is provided. The method comprises the following steps. First, a phase angle of a signal field of the input signal after processed by Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) and channel equalization is calculated. A frequency offset error originated from at least one frequency offset estimation process in time domain is then estimated according to the phase angle.

Method, system and apparatus for receiving antenna selection, comprising a receiving step, a determining step, an estimating step, and an assigning step. The receiving step involves receiving data and second data associated with a first antenna and a second antenna. It follows the determining step determining first and second throughputs with the first data and the second data. Next the estimating step estimating first signal deviance and second signal deviance between the received data (Dki) and a reference signal (Rki), with the first data and the second data respectively. Finally the assigning step assigning a receiving antenna among the first and the second antennas, based on the first and the second throughputs, and the first and the second signal deviances.

A method for updating coefficients in a decision feedback equalizer (DFE). The DFE comprises an ISI canceller for canceling ISI from a plurality of first signals received from a channel. A first symbol comprising a set of the first signals is decoded to generate a decoded symbol. Then, a vector of error values computed as the difference between the decoded symbol, and the first symbol is obtained. According to the decoded symbol and the vector of the error values, a temp matrix is generated. Next, the values of the elements in every diagonal line of the temp matrix are averaged. Finally, the coefficients are updated by the Toeplitz Matrix.
