    Abstract: A wireless communication device has a receiver to listen to a sequence of channels. A controller responds to a preamble being detected on a first channel while the receiver is tuned to the first channel by causing the receiver to stay on the first channel and decode packet(s) associated with the preamble. The controller responds to detection of a first symbol of a first transmission protocol and the preamble not being detected to cause the receiver to stay on the first channel for a predetermined time waiting for a retry. The controller responds to detection of a second symbol of a second transmission protocol and the preamble not being detected to cause the receiver to switch to an advertising channel of the second transmission protocol. If no preambles, noise, or symbols are detected, the receiver switches to listening to a next channel in the sequence after a fixed time.

    Abstract: A method for communicating between a first radio frequency communications device including a first local oscillator and a second radio frequency communications device including a second local oscillator includes generating phase values based on samples of a received signal. Each of the phase values indicates an instantaneous phase of the received signal. The method includes unwrapping the phase values to generate unwrapped phase values. The method includes generating frequency offset estimates based on the unwrapped phase values. The method includes generating an average frequency offset estimate based on the unwrapped phase values. The method includes wrapping the average frequency offset estimate to generate a residual frequency offset estimate. The method includes adjusting the first local oscillator based on the residual frequency offset estimate, thereby reducing a frequency offset between the first local oscillator and the second local oscillator.

    Abstract: A method for communicating between a first radio frequency communications device including a first local oscillator and a second radio frequency communications device including a second local oscillator includes receiving a packet using a receiver of the first radio frequency communications device. The method includes detecting an average frequency offset based on sequential samples of the packet. The method includes applying a first adjustment to the first local oscillator to reduce a frequency offset between the first local oscillator and the second local oscillator. The first adjustment is based on the average frequency offset. The method includes, after adjusting the first local oscillator, transmitting a second packet to the second radio frequency communications device by the first radio frequency communications device using the first adjustment and the first local oscillator.

    Abstract: A system and method of minimizing interference and retries in an environment where two or more network protocols utilize the same frequency spectrum is disclosed. A lower-power network controller is co-located with a WIFI controller. The lower-power network controller listens for a signature that may indicate the presence of a low power protocol packet, such as BLE or Zigbee. The lower-power controller checks for a waveform that is representative of a Zigbee packet prior to generating a request signal to the WIFI controller. This maximizes the likelihood that no WIFI traffic will occur while the incoming packet is being received.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a radio frequency (RF) receiver, which includes a digital signal arrival (DSA) detector to detect arrival of a transmitted signal. The DSA detector includes a signal correlator and at least one of (a) an absolute received signal strength indication (RSSI) detector; (b) a relative RSSI detector; and (c) a frequency offset detector). The RF receiver further includes a demodulator coupled to the DSA detector to demodulate a received signal and to provide a demodulated signal, and a synchronization word detector (SWD) coupled to the demodulator to receive the demodulated signal.

    Abstract: A technique for adding a new information rate to a legacy physical interface of a communications system includes using a rate switch packet including a distinct rate select start-of-frame delimiter that indicates a newly defined physical interface packet. The rate switch packet uses the same modulation scheme as a base rate packet (e.g., a packet using an information rate defined by a standard communications protocol) and the same preamble pattern as the base rate packet. The preamble length of the rate switch packet can be the same as or different from the preamble length of the base rate packet. An embodiment uses antenna diversity by selecting the antenna in the rate switch packet and using the selected antenna to receive an adjusted rate packet. Additional rate switch start-of-frame delimiters can be used to indicate more than one adjusted rate packet, e.g., to support multiple adjusted information rates.

    Abstract: A system and method for one-way ranging is disclosed. The system comprises a transmitter, also referred to as a tag, transmitting a packet having a sounding sequence. The receiver, also referred to as the locator, receives the sounding sequence. The receiver measures and saves the phase at a plurality of points in time. The sounding sequence has two frequencies, which are additive inverses of one another. A discrete Fourier transform is performed on the plurality of phase measurements to determine the phase of each of the two frequencies. The difference between these two frequencies is related to the time that the packet traveled. Additionally, a calibration of the transmit path and/or receive path may be performed to improve the accuracy of the results.
