  • Method and apparatus for providing a broadband, wireless, communications network
    Patent number: 6647015
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for providing a broadband, wireless network comprising residential communications gateway that accepts all incoming communications signals and securely broadcasts those signals throughout a residence. Each communications appliance within the residence is outfitted with a receiver that decodes the broadcast signals and couples the signals to the input terminals of the associated communications appliance. The system is completely “plug-and-play” such that a user can quickly and easily utilize the gateway for many communications appliances.

  • Method and apparatus for demodulating orthogonal frequency division multiplexed signals
    Publication number: 20030107986
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for demodulating an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signal. Specifically, the OFDM demodulator includes a band edge timing recovery circuit for tracking the symbol timing error and a programmable delay circuit for optimally re-sampling the OFDM signal under control of the band edge timing circuit to correct the symbol timing error. Symbol timing is recovered independent of synchronizing and training sequences in the OFDM signal, which results in reduced intercarrier interference when the sub-carriers of the OFDM signal are recovered.
