Abstract: A system and method providing a frame structure to received channel data sent over an air interface of a wireless communication system. The system and method may allow compensation for transmitting and receiving frequency variations, synchronization at the receiver, and provides a virtual signaling channel which may be used for system alarms and status. In one embodiment, the system uses bit stuffing, a frame preamble and a signaling preamble to transmit data at a high data rate in the ISM band.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method of timing estimation for use in a digital, receiver within a communication system. This method exploits the complementary information available from the use of two different nonlinearities to estimate the timing offset following asynchronous sampling of the received signal at a rate of two samples per symbol. The present method operates in a feedforward configuration thereby avoiding issues associated with feedback configurations such as hangup. The present method uses a magnitude square nonlinearity as well as a delay, complex conjugate and multiply nonlinearity to calculate the timing offset. The choice of these nonlinearities is influenced by the need for the estimator to operate in the presence of a phase offset on the received signal. Timing estimators which can tolerate the presence of a slowly varying phase offset over the observation interval on the received signal are especially important in all-digital feedforward receiver design.
