Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and/or methods of Direct Current (DC) estimation. For example, an apparatus may include an estimator to estimate a DC component of a received wireless communication packet based on a first value, a second value and an estimated frequency offset, wherein the first value is based on a first plurality of samples including at least a plurality of samples of a first sequence of a preamble of the wireless communication packet, the second value is based on a second plurality of samples including at least a plurality of samples of a second sequence of the preamble, immediately successive to the first sequence, and the estimated frequency offset corresponds to a frequency offset between the first and second pluralities of samples.
摘要:
In a frequency modulated digital radio transmission system, frequency differences between transmitter and receiver which give rise to DC offsets at the output of the demodulator are countered for any one data transmission by establishing a frequency controlling or DC level controlling signal during a preamble sequence having a known constant DC component, such as the sequence 10101 - - - used for clock or data synchronization, and retaining that controlling signal substantially unaltered for use during the remainder of that data transmission.
摘要:
A decoder system for decoding signals such as Class IV partial-response signals. In the decoder system, threshold levels are used to distinguish between binary ones and zeros in partial-response signals. The threshold levels are adjusted by a feedback system to automatically compensate for effects such as signal dropouts.

A limiter/detector which takes advantage of the characteristics of the dotting pattern preceding each message in the General Electric Public Service Trunking System shortens bit synchronization acquisition time and improves incoming signal detection. Since the lowest frequency component in the dotting pattern is 4800 Hz, the time constant of the receiver adaptive limiter is decreased from 0.1 seconds to 0.33 microseconds (corresponding to a cut-off frequency of 3 KHz) during the time a dotting pattern is (or might be) received. This decreased time constant allows the limiter to adapt much more rapidly to the DC component of the incoming data signal. Upon successful decoding of the dotting pattern preceding the message, the limiter circuit time constant is changed to 0.1 seconds to allow lower frequency digital data signal components (e.g., those lower frequency components associated with word sync patterns such as Barker codes) to be detected. The limiter provides the advantages of decreased falsing rate, more reliable detection of word sync, more rapid acquisition of bit sync, better utilization of processing resources, simplification of initial signal detection routines and/or circuitry, and more rapid adaptivity to incoming signalling.

An optoelectronic transducer is proposed which includes a PIN diode (2) that delivers a current that is proportional to a light signal that is received. The diode is connected to the input of an inverting amplifier (4) that delivers a voltage signal v.sub.s. A negative feedback means of the transfer impedance type (6) is connected across the inverting amplifier. The transducer further includes a stabilizing means (8) for the amplifier gain and a temperature drift compensating means (10) for compensating for the drift in amplifier temperature. The stabilizing means (8) includes a detector (26, 28, 32) for the high peak of the signal v.sub.s, and the temperature drift compensating means (10) includes a filter means (38) for producing the means value v.sub.m of the signal v.sub.s, and a comparator (40) that receives the signals v.sub.s and v.sub.m and delivers a signal that reproduces the interference of the light signal that has been received. The temperature drift compensating (10) also includes a carrier wavedetection (cs) with automatic control (42). This automatic control enables very high speed detection of the carrier wave not only at a high level, but at a low level as well.
摘要:
A digital data signal is distorted by means of a low or high pass filter. Quantization of such a signal in accordance with extracted clock pulses will result in a high error rate if a fixed quantization level is utilized due to attenuated voltage swings and a low differential between the signal excursions and the quantization level. The present invention overcomes this problem by means of a shift register connected to an output of a quantization comparator which is clocked by the extracted clock pulses. A weighting circuit is connected between the shift register and one of the inputs of the comparator to suitably adjust the relative quantization level to compensate for the asymmetrical voltage swings caused by the filtering and thereby greatly reduce the data error rate.

IN A RADAR RECEIVER A REFERENCE VOLTAGE IS GENERATED TO PROVIDE A CLIP LEVEL FOR RECEIVED SIGNALS. THE SIGNALS WHICH EXCEED THE CLIP LEVEL ARE USED TO GENERATE A PULSE COUNT WHOSE VALUE IS A FUNCTION OF THE TIME DURATION OF PASSED SIGNALS DURING A PORTION OF THE PERIOD BETWEEN TWO RANGE PULSES TRANSMITTED BY THE RADAR TRANSMITTER. A POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE SIGNAL IS GENERATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH WHETHER OR NOT THE ACTUAL COUNT VALUE EXCEEDS A GIVEN COUNT VALUE DURING THE PERIOD. THE SIGNAL SO GENERATED IS INTEGRATED TO PROVIDE THE REFERENCE VOLTAGE FOR THE NEXT PERIOD.
