Abstract:
A system includes a receiver for receiving a modulated signal. The receiver includes a gain estimator for converting complex data representative of constellation points of the modulated signal into scalar data representation. The gain estimator is configured to fold a first portion of the scalar data representation onto a second portion of the scalar data representation. The gain estimator is further configured to estimate a constellation gain value from the folded first portion and the second portion of the scalar data representation.
Abstract:
An apparatus for processing signals in a wireless system includes a first memory module to receive input data from a set of physical channels, a first plurality of sub-modules to process the input data. Each of the first plurality of sub-modules is selected to function based upon data and transmission channel specifications. The apparatus also includes a second memory module to receive processed input data and output intermediate data. Locations of the input data in the second memory is allocated in connection with data and transmission channel specifications. The apparatus also includes a second plurality of sub-modules to process the intermediate data. Each of the second plurality of sub-modules is selected to function based upon data and transmission channel specifications. The apparatus also includes a third memory module to receive and output bit rate processing output.
Abstract:
A method includes receiving data in a first data processing module, and enabling a second data processing module when at least one signal time slot of the received data comprises data that complies with a first data transmission standard. The method also includes exchanging signals between the first data processing module and software executing in a processor, and determining that a software configuration of the second data processing module has been completed. The method also includes processing the data in the second data processing module for the at least one signal time slot, and enabling a third data processing module upon a completion of processing at least one data block in the second data processing module, and determining that a software configuration of the third data processing module has been completed, the at least one data block comprising multiple signal time slots.
Abstract:
A wireless system has an uplink chip rate processing architecture in which at least two groups of registers are provided, each group of register storing a set of time slot configuration parameters. A storage stores a sequence of time slot configuration set identifiers each identifying one of the groups of registers, each identifier corresponding to a time slot. A chip rate processing unit processes a stream of data over a plurality of time slots in which at each of the time slots, and the chip rate processing unit is configured according to the set oftime slot configuration parameters stored in the group of register associated with the time slot configuration set identifier corresponding to the time slot.
