  • Patent number: 9825722
    Abstract: A communication device is provided that includes a receiver configured to receive a signal. The communication device further includes a determination circuit configured to determine a data packet of the received signal based on a predefined packet structure. The communication device further includes a decoder configured to determine a key information. The decoder is configured to decode a first portion of the data packet based on the key information, to determine a redundancy information of a second portion of the data packet and to verify a packet information of the first portion and the second portion based on the redundancy information. The communication device further includes a detection circuit configured to detect an interference signal of the received signal and to activate the decoder if the interference signal is detected.

  • Patent number: 9374248
    Abstract: A method includes a step of correlating a received signal with a pilot sequence to determine a correlation result. The method further includes a step of determining a channel estimate based on a Minimum Mean Square Error scheme that is conditional to an observed parameter, wherein the observed parameter includes the correlation result.

  • Patent number: 9065555
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a signal over a multi-path channel, generating a plurality of observation vectors of the received signal, generating a channel covariance matrix of the plurality of observation vectors, and identifying a first path by projecting a pulse shaping vector on the channel covariance matrix at different time offsets and selecting the maximum thereof as the first path. Thereafter, further paths can be identified. In each case, an n-th path is identified by projecting the pulse shaping vector into a null space of n-1 previously identified paths at different time offsets and the maximum thereof is selected as an n-th path.

  • Patent number: 9020074
    Abstract: An apparatus provides a baseband signal for exploiting receive antenna diversity by means of a digital baseband processor. The apparatus includes a combiner configured to temporally delay a first received signal corresponding to a first receive antenna with respect to a second received signal corresponding to a second receive antenna, and to add the delayed first received signal and the second received signal to obtain a baseband representation of a combined signal at an output of the combiner as the baseband signal for exploiting receive antenna diversity.

  • Patent number: 8824526
    Abstract: An apparatus provides a baseband signal for exploiting receive antenna diversity by means of a digital baseband processor. The apparatus includes a combiner configured to temporally alternately select at least one sample of a first received signal corresponding to a first receive antenna and at least one sample of a second received signal corresponding to a second receive antenna and to interleave the selected samples of the first and second received signal to obtain a temporally continuous stream of samples of a baseband representation of a combined signal at an output of the combiner as the baseband signal for exploiting receive antenna diversity.
