Patent number: 7139289Abstract: In an error and sync detection circuit, 7-bit byte data is rearranged by a data rearrangement block into 8-bit byte data where 1 byte is comprised of 8 bits. Thereafter, the 8-bit byte data is consistently used throughout the process, and each of such byte data is stored in a data storage block, which is a RAM. In a parity check block, a sync detection operation and a parity check operation are performed on the byte data from the data rearrangement block and the byte data from the data storage block, which has been delayed by 1496 clocks. Thus, the byte-to-byte conversion process eliminates the need for a parallel-to-serial conversion circuit and a serial-to-parallel conversion circuit. Use of a RAM for storing the byte data eliminates the need for a 1496-stage delay element.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2002Date of Patent: November 21, 2006Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshihiko Fukuoka, Taemi Wada

Patent number: 6421378Abstract: Integrating AFC/APC function with waveform equalization function for and reducing the circuit size of a signal wave-form equalizer apparatus. A waveform equalization section is divided into an FFE block as an anterior stage and a DFE block as a posterior stage. An AFC/APC block is provided therebetween. In the AFC/APC block, an AFC/APC coefficient update section updates a coefficient used for removing frequency and phase errors in accordance with an LMS algorithm, and a tap multiplies a modulated signal by the updated coefficient. Error data produced by an error estimation block is used by not only FFE and DFE coefficient update sections but also the AFC/APC coefficient update section for updating the coefficients. That is to say, the waveform equalization section and the AFC/APC block use the error estimation block in common, thereby reducing the circuit size considerably.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 1998Date of Patent: July 16, 2002Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co.
