摘要： An apparatus for coarse compensation of a direct current (DC) offset in a direct to baseband receiver architecture utilizes a serial analog to digital converter (ADC), such as a Delta-Sigma converter, to convert the received signal to digital form. The output of the ADC is sampled for a predetermined number of samples and a counter coupled to the ADC is incremented each time the sample generated by the ADC is a logic one. The counter is not incremented if the sample from the ADC is a logic zero. After the predetermined number of samples is obtained, the counter value is indicative of the DC offset in the received signal. The counter value may be converted by a code converter to a correction value for easy operation of a digital to analog converter (DAC). If the number of samples from the ADC is a power of two, the code converted may be readily implemented by simply inverting the most significant bit (MSB) from the counter to thereby generate a twos complement version of the counter value. The correction value is coupled to the DAC to generate a compensation signal, which is provided to the received signal path in the form of a feedback signal to compensate for the DC offset.
摘要翻译：用于直接到基带接收机架构中的直流（DC）偏移的粗略补偿的装置利用诸如Δ-Σ转换器的串行模数转换器（ADC）将接收的信号转换成数字形式。对于预定数量的采样，ADC的输出被采样，并且每当由ADC产生的采样为逻辑1时，耦合到ADC的计数器递增。如果来自ADC的采样为逻辑0，则计数器不递增。在获得预定数量的样本之后，计数器值表示接收信号中的直流偏移。计数器值可以由代码转换器转换成用于容易操作数模转换器（DAC）的校正值。如果来自ADC的采样数是2的幂，则通过简单地将来自计数器的最高有效位（MSB）反相，从而生成计数器值的二进制补码版本，可以容易地实现转换代码。校正值耦合到DAC以产生补偿信号，其以反馈信号的形式提供给接收信号路径以补偿DC偏移。

摘要： A dual-band helical antenna provides operation in two frequency bands. The dual-band helical antenna includes two single-band antennas, each having a feed network, a ground plane opposite the feed network, and a set of one or more radiators extending from feed network. According to one aspect of the invention, a tab extends from the feed network of one of the antennas which provides a feed for that antenna. The tab also provides a path for current to flow from the radiators of the second antenna along the axis of the second antenna to thereby increase the energy radiated in the directions perpendicular to the axis. According to another feature of the invention, the ground plane of one antenna is used as a shorting ring for the other antenna.

摘要： A multiple analog signal converter (100) simultaneously converts multiple analog signals (104,106) to digital signals (112, 114) using a single analog to digital converter (ADC) 102. A first analog signal (104) at a first center frequency and a second analog signal (106) at a second center frequency are processed by the ADC (102) to generate a composite digital signal (110) comprising a first digital signal (112) corresponding to the first analog signal (104) and a second digital signal (114) corresponding to the second analog signal (106). The composite digital signal (110) is digitally frequency shifted to recover the second digital signal (106). The first digital signal (104) is recovered by digitally filtering the composite digital signal (110). In some circumstances, a first radio frequency (RF) signal (118) and a second RF signal (122) are frequency shifted to generate the first analog signal (104) and second analog signal (106).

摘要： Techniques for suppressing spurs in a receiver are described. A processor (e.g., within a wireless device) receives digital samples for a desired signal having a spur located within the bandwidth of the desired signal. A spur is an undesired signal that may be generated internally at the receiver or may come from an external interfering source. The processor filters the digital samples to suppress the spur and provides output samples having the spur suppressed. The processor may detect for the spur, e.g., by performing an FFT on the digital samples and examining the spectral response. The processor may filter the digital samples with a notch filter having an adjustable notch frequency and/or an adjustable notch bandwidth. For example, the notch frequency may be set based on the frequency of the spur, and the notch bandwidth may be set based on the amplitude of the spur.

摘要： A wireless device configured to support a wireless networking protocol may utilize signal processing techniques that can mitigate the effects of jammer signals. For example, when a measured power associated with a digital sample of a received wireless signal is greater than a threshold, the wireless device may determine if the wireless signal corresponds to a wireless networking packet to be demodulated. If the wireless signal does not correspond to a wireless networking packet to be demodulated, the wireless device may adjust the threshold so that the power associated with the digital sample is less than the threshold. In other words, if the signal is a jammer signal, the wireless device may adjust its noise floor upward so that continuous reception of the same jammer signal does not trigger demodulation a second time.

摘要： An receiver receives, amplifies, filters, and downconverts an RF signal to obtain an FM signal. The FM signal is then limited by a limiter and sampled by an ADC. The FM samples from the ADC are provided to an edge detector which detects transitions in the FM samples. The transitions correspond to zero crossings in the FM signal. The time period between the zero crossings, or the cycle width, is measured with a counter to determine the instantaneous frequency f.sub.c of the FM signal. The demodulated output is proportional to the instantaneous frequency which can be determined from the measured cycle periods as f.sub.c =1/2T.sub.c, f.sub.c .apprxeq.-.alpha.T.sub.c, or f.sub.c .varies.T.sub.c, where T.sub.c is the measured cycle period, and .alpha. is a constant based on the slope of 1/2T.sub.c,avg, where T.sub.c,avg is the average cycle period. The sample rate of the demodulated output can be reduced, through resampling, to minimize power consumption in the subsequent signal processing blocks.

摘要： A wireless device achieves good performance using a crystal oscillator that is not compensated for temperature. The crystal oscillator provides a reference signal having a temperature dependent frequency error. A control unit estimates the frequency error (e.g., based on a received pilot) and provides a frequency error estimate. A clock generator generates a digital clock, which tracks chip timing, based on the reference signal and the frequency error estimate. A receiver frequency downconverts an input RF signal with a receive LO signal having the frequency error and provides an analog baseband signal. An ADC digitizes the analog baseband signal based on a sampling clock having the frequency error and provides ADC samples. A re-clocking circuit re-clocks the ADC samples based on a digital clock and provides data samples. A digital rotator frequency translates the data samples based on the frequency error estimate and provides frequency-translated samples centered near DC.
