    摘要: Previously, when designing receivers for radio frequency (RF) or wireless communications, designers chose between time-interleaved (TI) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) for intermediate frequency architectures and dual channel ADCs for direct conversion architectures. Here, similarities between TI ADCs and dual channel ADC were recognized, and an ADC that has the capability of operating as a TI ADCs and dual channel ADC is provided. This allows designer to have greatly increased flexibility during the design process which can greatly reduce design costs, while also allowing the manufacturer of the ADC to realize a reduction in its operating costs.

    摘要: With high speed, high resolution time-interleaved (TI) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), bandwidth mismatches between the various ADC branches can pose a significant problem. Previously, though, no adequate solution has been found. Here, a method and apparatus are provided that can calculate and compensate for bandwidth mismatches in a TI ADC, enabling a high speed, high resolution TI ADC to be produced.

    摘要: An apparatus and system are provided for crest factor reduction (CFR). Preferably, a peak from the wideband signal is detected. A gain from the magnitude of the peak and a threshold can then be calculated. Based on this information, each carrier's contribution to the peak can be approximated, and a cancellation pulse coefficient for each carrier from its contribution to the peak can be calculated. A base cancellation pulse can be calculated from the cancellation pulse coefficients for each carrier, and a cancellation pulse can be calculated from the base cancellation pulse and the gain, which can then be applied to the wideband signal.

    摘要: The present invention provides a hardware assisted automatic gain control (AGC) for a communication network. A dedicated hardware portion of the AGC, which works in cooperation with software implemented functionality (400), is included to detect saturation conditions in the internal nodes of the analog front end (200) in which a plurality of gain stages (PGA1, PGA2, PGA3) and filter stages (H1, H2, H3) are interleaved with inaccessible intermediate points. The saturation detection logic includes a comparator (21, 22, 23) and flip-flop (27, 28, 29) for each gain stage (PGA1, PGA2, PGA3) and can be integrated directly in the analog front end 200. The dedicated hardware can further be included in a codec of a modem in a digital subscriber line (DSL) system.

    摘要: Performing digital predistortion (DPD) for widely spaced narrowband signals, such as the signal used in multi-carrier GSM, can be very difficult. Here, a system is provided the performs DPD for widely spaced narrowband signals. In particular, this system uses a polynomial curve for values of a cross-correlation function (above a predetermined threshold) to determine a delay estimate, which allows for a more robust and accurate system.
