Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods related to selecting a sample phase of a signal are disclosed. A method includes sampling a signal including a plurality of symbols with a plurality of different sample phases to obtain sample values of each of the plurality of symbols at each of the plurality of different sample phases. The signal is received from a shared transmission medium. The method also includes determining an edge sample phase of the plurality of different sample phases that corresponds to edges of the symbols based on the sample values. The method further includes determining a center sample phase of the plurality of different sample phases based on the determined edge sample phase, and using the determined center sample phase to determine values of the symbols.

Abstract: Various embodiments relate to detecting a cable fault within a 10SPE network. A method may include transmitting a pulse signal to a cable of a shared bus from a node, and observing a signal received at the node in response to the pulse signal. The method may also include determining a fault condition of the cable based on the pulse signal and on an amplitude of each sample of a number of samples of the one or more observed signals.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an encoder circuit and a scrambler circuit configured to receive a frame, the frame including a preamble and a payload. The scrambler circuit is further configured to scramble contents of the frame including the payload and at least a portion of the preamble, provide synchronization information with results of scrambling the contents, and send results of scrambling the contents to the encoder circuit.

Abstract: Physical layer devices and related methods for determining Bit Error Rates (BERs) and correcting errors in signals received through shared transmission media of wireless local area networks are disclosed. A physical layer device is configured to identify coding violations in received signal, determine a rate of the coding violations in the signal, and estimate a BER of the signal to be equal to the determined rate of the coding violations. A physical layer device is configured to invert a half symbol immediately preceding or immediately following a coding violation based, at least in part, on signal integrities of the half symbol immediately preceding and the half symbol immediately following the coding violation to correct a bit error.

Abstract: Systems, device, and methods related to estimating a Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) of a signal are disclosed. A method of estimating an SNR includes setting a threshold of a comparator of a physical layer device to a first value, applying a signal to the comparator, and determining a first bit error number of an output of the comparator with the threshold set at the first value. The method also includes setting the threshold of the comparator to a second value that is different from the first value, applying the signal to the comparator, and determining a second bit error number of the output of the comparator with the threshold set at the second value. The method further includes determining an SNR of the signal based on the first bit error number and the second bit error number.

Abstract: An apparatus may comprise processing circuitry, a first pair of terminals, and a second pair of terminals that are electrically connected to a cable. The processing circuitry may provide a periodic signal including pulses to the first terminal. The duration of each of the pulses may be at least double the time of travel of the pulses along the length of the cable. The processing circuitry may also detect a fault in the cable responsive to a received signal at the second terminal responsive to the periodic signal.

Abstract: Reducing emissions of predetermined frequencies using delay elements and related apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed. An apparatus includes an input terminal to receive a signal, delay elements electrically connected to the input terminal, an output terminal to provide a reduced slew rate signal, and combination circuitry electrically connected to the delay elements and the output terminal. The delay elements provide delayed signals responsive to the received signal. Respective ones of the delayed signals include delayed versions of the received signal. The combination circuitry combines the delayed signals to generate the reduced slew rate signal. Delays associated with the delay elements are chosen to reduce emissions of one or more predetermined frequencies of the reduced slew rate signal as compared to the received signal.
