  • Patent number: 8223906
    Abstract: A transmit filter for a stream of OFDM symbols has a remapper, Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filter and a controller, the transmit filter operating on a stream of OFDM symbols. The transmit filter accepts symbols to be transmitted, the re-mapper re-orders them, the IIR filters the re-ordered stream, and a controller provides an output by rearranging the filtered symbols. The incoming symbol stream contains a series of symbols, each followed by a guard interval, where each guard interval has a first Tg symbol interval, and a second Tg symbol interval, the remapper generating a re-ordered stream having a first Tg symbol interval, a second Tg symbol interval and the symbol, the output of the IIR filter thereby generating a filtered first Tg symbol, a filtered second Tg symbol, and a filtered symbol, and the controller forms the transmit output by discarding the filtered first Tg symbol and outputting, in sequence, the filtered second Tg symbol, the filtered symbol, and a copy of the filtered second Tg symbol.

  • Patent number: 8165251
    Abstract: A filter for receiver and operative on a stream of OFDM symbols has a symbol timing identifier which indicates the time interval for each symbol and also indicates a non-truncation interval and a truncation interval of the stream of symbols. The stream of OFDM symbols is applied to an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter with a reset input for resetting internal registers such that during the non-truncation interval, the reset input is not asserted, and during the truncation interval of the stream of OFDM symbols, the reset input is asserted during the intervals between symbols, as identified by the symbol timing identifier.

  • Patent number: 8160190
    Abstract: A receive filter for a stream of OFDM symbols has an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter which receives packets having a preamble part followed by a data part, the data part having a succession of cyclic prefixes followed by OFDM symbols. The packet is provided to the IIR filter, and the registers of the IIR filter are reset before or during each cyclic prefix. The IIR filter may be formed from registers which are coupled to return a value to a predecessor register, or as an array of registers, such as in a BIQUAD configuration, where the registers are reset by a shared reset signal.
