Patent number: 10938427Abstract: Control of a digital communication system having a plurality of communication lines on which signals are transmitted and received is implemented using a variety of methods and systems. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method is implemented where the signals are affected by interference during transmission and each of the communication lines has at least one transmitter and at least one receiver. A model is created of the interference characteristics due to the signals carried on the communication lines. Interference characteristics for a line are determined based on the model and actual signals carried on other communication lines different from the line for which the characteristics are being determined. Actual interference is compensated for on the communication line using the determined interference characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2019Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior UniversityInventors: Georgios Ginis, Wei Yu, Chaohuang Zeng, John M.

Patent number: 8081704Abstract: Methods, apparatus and systems for dynamically controlling a digital communication system, such as a DSL system, collect information about digital communication lines in the system and adaptively and/or dynamically determine line and signal characteristics of the digital communication lines, including interference effects. Based on the determined characteristics and the desired performance parameters, operation of the digital communication lines is adjusted to improve or otherwise control the performance of the system. The collection and processing of information may be performed by a party that is not a user in the system. This independent party also may control operational characteristics and parameters of the system. The invention can be used to eliminated or reduce signal interference such as crosstalk that can be induced on communication lines in systems such as DSL systems. Specific iterative power allocation and vectored transmission techniques and apparatus are disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2006Date of Patent: December 20, 2011Assignee: The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior UniversityInventors: Georgios Ginis, Wei Yu, Chaohuang Zeng, John M.

Patent number: 7912137Abstract: An Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) device and method of correcting frequency offset in OFDMA signals computes an estimated frequency offset, which is used for producing a frequency offset-compensated mixer signal using a reference clock signal. The frequency offset-compensated mixer signal is used to produce a digital down-converted signal from an incoming OFDMA signal. The digital down-converted signal is digitally corrected for sampling errors using the estimated frequency offset.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2007Date of Patent: March 22, 2011Assignee: Amicus Wireless Technology Ltd.Inventors: Chaohuang Zeng, Won-Joon Choi, Jingnong Yang

Patent number: 7764664Abstract: A modified approach to detecting the start frame delimiter (SFD) is disclosed. A receiving system scans a decoded but not yet de-scrambled received signal for a scrambled version of the SFD associated with the preamble format being used. Using this approach, it is not necessary to use any bits intended for use in synchronization to initialize a de-scrambler so as to be able to de-scramble the SFD portion of the preamble for detection. The bits that otherwise would have been dedicated to initializing the de-scrambler may then be used for synchronization, as intended. Detecting fewer than all bits comprising a start frame delimiter is described. Bits not used for SFD detection may be used for other purposes, such as synchronization.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2006Date of Patent: July 27, 2010Assignee: Atheros Communications, Inc.Inventors: Chaohuang Zeng, William McFarland
