    • A system for companding digital audio signal samples processes the digital audio signal samples to correct errors induced by the compression and expansion processes. These errors are calculated prior to compressing the samples. Such errors are calculated in accordance with a predetermined compression process and a predetermined expansion process; and the digital audio signal samples are corrected in accordance with such calculations prior to compression. The compression process includes providing a 3-bit gain word for a block of 70 samples. The gain word is computed in accordance with the position of the most significant "1" bit in the sample(s) having the peak magnitude. Each individual sample is processed in accordance with the block gain word to compress the sample by reducing the number of magnitude bits. The error calculation process includes calculating an error signal by subtracting a calculated reproduced digital audio signal sample from the digital audio signal sample to be compressed, filtering the error signal by noise-spectral filtering and adding the filtered error signal to the next-providing digital audio signal sample to provide a corrected digital audio signal sample for compression. The error calculation process also includes calculating an error value based upon the effect of using a single gain word for compressing a block of samples. The error value is subtracted from the corrected digital audio signal sample prior to compression. The gain word is forward error corrected by (5,1) encoding to enable detection and correction of both single-bit and double-bit errors in transfer by majority voting. The sign bit and the most significant magnitude bits of the compressed samples are forward error corrected to enable detection and correction of single-bit errors in transfer and to enable detection and concealment of double-bit errors in transfer.

    • To broadcast different types of transmission having different tiers of coverage in a wireless broadcast network, each base station processes data for a wide-area transmission in accordance with a first mode (or coding and modulation scheme) to generate data symbols for the wide-area transmission and processes data for a local transmission in accordance with a second mode to generate data symbols for the local transmission. The first and second modes are selected based on the desired coverage for wide-area and local transmissions, respectively. The base station also generates pilots and overhead information for local and wide-area transmissions. The data, pilots, and overhead information for local and wide-area transmissions are multiplexed onto their transmission spans, which may be different sets of frequency subbands, different time segments, or different groups of subbands in different time segments. More than two different types of transmission may also be multiplexed and broadcast.

    • Alignment of an antenna and a polarizer for the antenna are automatically adjusted and the frequency setting of a frequency-tunable receiver is automatically adjusted while receiving a broadcast communication signal that is forward-error-correction coded by processing the forward-error-correction code of the received signal to measure a channel-bit-error-rate-affected parameter for the received signal; by realigning the antenna and the polarizer from their respective initial positions in response to the measured parameter until the measured parameter is minimized; and by retuning the receiver from its initial frequency setting in response to the measured parameter until the measured parameter is minimized. A Viterbi decoder processes the forward-error-correction code of the received signal to compute path metrics affected by the bit-error rate of the received signal and normalizes the computed path metrics; and a counter counts the normalizations over fixed intervals to measure a path metric normalization rate as the measured parameter.

    • Methods and circuits for positioning a signal sampling window within a wireless receiver device for use in a multi-transmitter wireless broadcast network include generating a long channel model based upon a signal identifying transmitters that can be processed without aliases, and positioning the signal sampling window based upon the long channel model. For example, in a MediaFLO® broadcast, the long channel model may be generated by receiving positioning pilot channel (PPC) signals. Positions for the signal sampling window may be determined by identifying hypothetical signal sampling window positions, calculating signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) values for each identified hypothetical, and selecting the hypothetical with the best SINR. Using a long channel model to position the signal sampling window may provide improved window placement, reduce destructive aliasing, and reduce a time guard in the window placement. The long channel model may be used in conjunction with terrain databases.
