Bit Sync For Receiver With Multiple Antennas

View page
US Patent:
8369387, Feb 5, 2013
Filed:
Feb 22, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/031867
Inventors:
Hongyuan Zhang - Fremont CA, US
Zhiyu Yang - Cupertino CA, US
Assignee:
Marvell International Ltd. - Hamilton
International Classification:
H04B 1/00
H04L 27/06
US Classification:
375150, 375343
Abstract:
A receiver with multiple antennas, such as an 802. 11b receiver may generate a magnitude signal for each antenna and add the results to determine a peak signal point in a received frame to provide a bit synchronization signal to a rake receiver component. The receiver may include one or more threshold switches that only pass individual or combined magnitude signals when the magnitude signals are above a certain level. The received frame may be dividing into segments using a switching circuit and registers. A comparator may then evaluate the registers to determine the segment with the highest magnitude signal. In one embodiment, values for adjacent segments may be added to a current segment when determining the segment with the highest magnitude signal.

US Patent:
8565335, Oct 22, 2013
Filed:
Sep 13, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/615544
Inventors:
Hongyuan Zhang - Fremont CA, US
Zhiyu Yang - Cupertino CA, US
Assignee:
Marvell International Ltd. - Hamilton
International Classification:
H04B 7/02
H04L 1/02
US Classification:
375267, 375261
Abstract:
Based on a plurality of signals received via a plurality of single-input, multiple-output (SIMO) channels, a plurality of sets of rake coefficients in a multiple-antenna transceiver are adapted. Each signal of the plurality of signals corresponds to a single signal transmitted by a single-antenna transceiver, and each set of the adapted sets of rake coefficients corresponds to an estimate of a respective one of the plurality of SIMO channels. According to at least one selection criterion, one coefficient from each set of the plurality of sets of rake coefficients is selected. A transmit steering vector is generated based on the selected coefficients, and the transmit steering vector is applied to a signal to be transmitted by the multiple-antenna transceiver to the single-antenna transceiver.
