Methods And Apparatus For Simultaneous Automatic Gain, Phase And Dc Offset Correction In Communication Receivers

View page
US Patent:
7769116, Aug 3, 2010
Filed:
Nov 28, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/605617
Inventors:
Agustin Lebron - San Diego CA, US
Konstantin A. Kouznetsov - San Diego CA, US
Mehdi Tavassoli Kilani - Irvine CA, US
Assignee:
Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
H04L 27/08
US Classification:
375345, 375298, 375319, 375326, 375340, 375346, 455136, 455138, 455296, 4551142, 4551143, 4552351, 4552321, 341155
Abstract:
Described herein is a method of automatic gain control and simultaneous digital correction of three types of variations in I/Q receivers: gain imbalance, phase imbalance, and DC offset. Three adaptation loops can operate simultaneously and use the output of an analog to digital converter (ADC) as their input, with the output driving digitally controllable analog components. With appropriate knowledge of signal statistics, the algorithm automatically optimally fills the ADC's full input signal range, providing an automatic gain control function and thus maximizing the signal-to-quantization-noise ratio. In so doing, it corrects gain imbalances between I and Q paths, while additional circuitry corrects DC offsets and phase imbalances.

Method And System For Adaptive Tone Cancellation For Mitigating The Effects Of Electromagnetic Interference

View page
US Patent:
8498217, Jul 30, 2013
Filed:
Jul 13, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/835419
Inventors:
Kishore Kota - Aliso Viejo CA, US
Kadir Dinc - Irvine CA, US
Ahmad Darabiha - Irvine CA, US
Mehdi Tavassoli Kilani - Aliso Viejo CA, US
Scott Powell - Aliso Viejo CA, US
Tooraj Esmailian - Mission Viejo CA, US
Assignee:
Broadcom Corporation - Irvine CA
International Classification:
G01R 31/08
US Classification:
370252, 370419
Abstract:
Aspects of a method and system for adaptive tone cancellation for mitigating the effects of interference are provided. In this regard, an Ethernet PHY may receive one or more signals via a corresponding one or more physical channels and generate one or more estimate signals, each of which approximates interference present in a corresponding one of the received signals. The Ethernet PHY may subtract each one of the estimate signals from a corresponding one of the received signals. The subtracting may occur at the input of one or more slicers in the Ethernet PHY. The received signals may be processed via one or more equalizers in the Ethernet PHY. A decision output of a slicer in the Ethernet PHY may be subtracted from one of the said one or more received signals, and a signal resulting from the subtraction may be utilized to generate the one or more estimate signals.

Method And System For Interference Cancellation

US Patent:
8514951, Aug 20, 2013
Filed:
Aug 16, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/857303
Inventors:
Mehdi Tavassoli Kilani - Aliso Viejo CA, US
Scott Powell - Aliso Viejo CA, US
Kadir Dinc - Irvine CA, US
Kishore Kota - Aliso Viejo CA, US
John Lock Creigh - Rancho Santa Marg CA, US
Hooman Parizi - Campbell CA, US
Assignee:
Broadcom Corporation - Irvine CA
International Classification:
H04L 1/00
US Classification:
375257, 379416, 37939901
Abstract:
Aspects of a method and system for interference cancellation substantially as shown in and/or described in connection with at least one of the figures, as set forth more completely in the claims. In this regard, a receiver may be operable to receive a differential signal via a differential channel, and to sense a common mode signal on the differential channel. A frequency range in which interference is present in the common mode signal may be determined. The differential signal and the common mode signal may be filtered to attenuate frequencies outside the determined frequency range. A phase and/or amplitude of the filtered common mode signal may be adjusted based on the filtered differential signal and the adjusted and filtered common mode signal may be subtracted from the received differential signal. The common mode signal may be sensed via a pair of resistors coupled to the differential channel.

Fully Digital Symbol Synchronization Technique

US Patent:
20020122516, Sep 5, 2002
Filed:
Dec 14, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/022465
Inventors:
Mehdi Kilani - Westlake Village CA, US
Hossein Alavi - Woodbridge, CA
International Classification:
H04L007/00
US Classification:
375/354000, 375/343000
Abstract:
One aspect of the invention provides a novel scheme to synchronize signal reception for a receiver device. In one embodiment, multi-symbol correlation of a first signal and a reference signal is performed. The reference signal corresponds to symbols denoting a synchronization or alignment marker. For every first signal sample, an indication of the degree of similarity between a plurality of the first signal symbols and reference signal symbols is generate as a second signal. This second signal is then nonlinearly processed, linearly processed, and then nonlinearly processed over time to determine if indications of high degrees of correlation occur at periodic intervals. If so, then these are considered synchronization markers and are used to synchronize signal reception of the receiver device.

Forward Error Correction (Fec) For Local Area Networks (Lans)

US Patent:
20150263762, Sep 17, 2015
Filed:
Mar 13, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/656839
Inventors:
- IRVINE CA, US
Mehmet Vakif Tazebay - Irvine CA, US
William Gene Bliss - Granite Canon WY, US
Ahmad Chini - Mission Viejo CA, US
Mehdi Tavassoli Kilani - Aliso Viejo CA, US
Assignee:

International Classification:

G01S 17/88
Abstract:
A local area network (LAN) backbone is implemented within an environment such as a self-contained environment (e.g., an automobile, an aircraft, a train, a ship, and/or any other environment). The LAN backbone is affected by AWGN, NBI, and/or impulse noise (noise). The LAN backbone supports communications based on an Ethernet communication protocol (e.g., a 1000Base-T1 based system that includes at least one single twisted pair). A device receives a first LDPC coded signal via the LAN backbone and decodes it to recover an input signal of a control system. The device also uses soft information generated during the decoding to compensate for the noise affecting the LAN backbone and then processes the input signal to generate a control signal for the control system. The device then and encodes the control signal to generate a second LDPC coded signal and transmits the second LDPC coded signal via the LAN backbone.
