  • Patent number: 9722817
    Abstract: A method for equalizing a signal comprising modulated symbols comprising a block of N received symbols comprises: demultiplexing the N received symbols by factor L to generate a predetermined number L of sub-blocks of symbols, each comprising a version of the N received symbols sub-sampled by factor L, the independent equalization of each sub-block using an identical equalization algorithm, multiplexing the equalized symbols of each sub-block to obtain a block of N equalized symbols, removing instances of interference linked to paths other than two paths of higher power comprising generating an interference term resulting from the influence, on the equalized symbols, of all paths of the channel having the impulse response of the transmission channel except two paths of higher power, subtracting the interference term from the symbols of the block of N received symbols, and, a second equalization step equal to a second iteration of the first equalization step.

  • Patent number: 9401829
    Abstract: A method for generating a filter bank for receiving a signal modulated by continuous phase modulation, the modulated signal being able to be broken down as a sum of a plurality of amplitude-modulated signals, each amplitude-modulated signal being expressed by a product between a complex pseudo-symbol and a temporal component with a waveform predefined according to the parameters of the modulation, includes: evaluating, over a duration (T) that is equal to the duration of a symbol, all waveforms of the signal from the parameters of the continuous phase modulation and the breakdown in the form of a sum of a plurality of amplitude-modulated signals, retaining all evaluated waveforms that are different from one another, constructing a filter bank made up of a plurality of filters whose temporal responses are equal to the retained waveforms, which are limited to a duration equal to the duration of a symbol.

  • Patent number: 8745460
    Abstract: An encoder and a decoder employ an encoding scheme corresponding to a parity check matrix which is derivable from a bipartite protograph formed of variable nodes and check nodes, with each variable node corresponding to a codeword symbol position. The protograph has a plurality of groups of nodes, each group of nodes comprising both variable nodes and check nodes. Each of the check nodes in a group is of degree 2 and has connections to two variable nodes in the same group. The protograph also has a plurality of check nodes of degree n, where n is the number of said plurality of groups, wherein each of the plurality of check nodes has a connection to a variable node in each group such that the symbol positions in a codeword are interleaved between the groups of nodes.
