  • Publication number: 20240250688
    Abstract: A clock recovery circuit includes a frequency tracking loop including a first charge pump, and a phase tracking loop including a second charge pump. A voltage-controlled oscillator responds to the frequency tracking loop in a first operating mode and to the phase tracking loop in a second operating mode. A lock detector outputs an activation signal that indicates whether the clock recovery circuit has acquired frequency lock. A loop filter coupled to an input of the voltage-controlled oscillator includes a switchable resistor and a programmable delay element responsive to the activation signal. The first charge pump is disabled when the activation signal indicates frequency lock has been acquired, and disabled when the activation signal indicates frequency lock has not been acquired. The switchable resistor is bypassed when an output of the programmable delay element is in the first signaling state.

  • Publication number: 20240137154
    Abstract: A station (STA) configured for operation in a WLAN may perform bit scrambling on input bits to generate scrambled input bits and may perform probabilistic constellation shaping using a shaping encoder on the scrambled input bits. The shaping encoder may encode a segment of the scrambled input bits for a modulation order and generate a shaped bit stream. In these embodiments, the STA may generate a QAM symbol stream with a QAM modulator. The QAM symbol stream may be generated at least from the shaped bit stream and from parity bits using the modulation order. The STA may generate the parity bits from the shaped bit streams with a forward-error correction (FEC) encoder and may transmit the QAM symbol stream within a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU). To address a potential byte boundary shift caused a decoding error at a receiving station, the STA may modify performance of the bit scrambling when probabilistic constellation shaping is performed.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method of signaling coding type is disclosed. The coding types include binary convolutional coding (BCC), legacy lifted Low-Density Parity Check (LDPC) code, and lifted LDPC code having a length that is a multiple of the maximum legacy LDPC code. The number of bits used to indicate the coding type in a User Info field depends on whether multiple lifted LDPC codes are available for encoding, whether the lifted LDPC code is an optional coding type, or a payload size. The frame containing the User Info field is transmitted to another STA and the response contains a payload encoded using the indicated coding type.

  • Publication number: 20240007186
    Abstract: Atmospheric turbulence degrades decoding and data recovery from optically transmitted signals. For example, atmospheric turbulence can induce power coupling from the transmitted Gaussian mode to higher-order modes, resulting in significantly degraded mixing efficiency and system performance. Systems and methods are provided to generate a signal that is a conjugate of the atmospheric noise which is combined with a received data signal to ameliorate atmospheric noise. An optical pilot beam may be transmitted with an optical data beam and received by a receiver which utilizes the optical pilot beam to generate the signal that is a conjugate of the atmospheric noise.
