    摘要: According to an aspect of the present disclosure there is provided a communication device comprising circuitry configured to modulate a four-dimensional input signal by combining the four real-valued signal components of the input signal into a transformed signal and multiplying the transformed signal by carrier signals using two different carrier frequencies to obtain a transmit signal, and transmit the transmit signal.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for modulating and demodulating transpositional modulated (TM) signals. One aspect features a method of modulating a carrier signal that include the actions of generating a TM signal by generating a sinusoidal signal, and modulating the sinusoidal signal based on a data signal to provide the TM signal. Inserting the TM signal into a carrier signal to provide a TM modulated carrier signal. Modulating the TM modulated carrier signal with a non-TM signal to provide a combined signal. Transmitting the combined signal.

    摘要: A method for wirelessly synchronizing a radar detector to a radar transmitter includes wirelessly receiving a first instance of a frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar signal directly emitted by the radar transmitter, determining a frequency slope change event in the FMCW radar signal using the first instance of the FMCW radar signal and temporally synchronizing the radar detector to the radar transmitter based on the frequency slope change event. Determining the frequency slope change event may include generating a frequency slope monitoring signal. In some embodiments, generating the frequency slope monitoring signal comprises mixing the first instance of the FMCW radar signal with a second instance of the FMCW radar signal. The second instance of the FMCW radar signal may be a reflected instance or a locally delayed instance of the first instance. A corresponding apparatus, computer readable medium and system are also disclosed herein.

    摘要: An orientation tracking system for a moving platform includes a transmitter which generates an beam having a known polarization with respect to a predefined coordinate system. The moving platform includes an ellipsometric detector capable of detecting the polarized beam when within the line-of-sight of the transmitter, and measuring its polarization state. The polarization state indicates the rotational orientation of the moving platform with respect to the predefined coordinate system. The beam could also be used to convey guidance commands to the platform.

    摘要: A communication system in which multiple shaping codes are selectively and iteratively used to encode a data frame such that possible energy inefficiencies associated with the use of constant-probability codes and/or transmission of dummy constellation symbols can be relatively small. In an example embodiment, the used shaping codes have different respective code rates, and a code selector of the shaping encoder operates to select one of the shaping codes by adaptively matching the rate of the code to the effective rate needed to efficiently encode the unprocessed portion of the data frame. The encoding is carried out in a manner that enables the shaping decoder to unequivocally determine the shaping codes that have been used for encoding each particular data frame based on the same rate-matching criteria as those used by the shaping encoder. At least some embodiments advantageously lend themselves to being implemented using circuits of relatively low complexity.

    摘要: The continuous demand for capacity and the limited available spectrum in wireless and wired communication has led to reliance on advanced modulation techniques to dramatically increase the number of bits per hertz per second. This demand in capacity and using the higher order constellations shorten the link range, and as a result, system gain becomes an important characteristic. The modulation techniques described here improve the system gain by, e.g., as much as 2.5 dB in high order modulations such as 4096-QAM. The modulation techniques include reducing the peak to average ratio and adding shaping gain. These techniques dramatically improve the system capacity, system gain, power consumption and system cost.
