Abstract: A method and apparatus allows single port memory devices to be accessed as pseudo two port memory devices. An access table is created to map the single port memory device to a single port even bank and a single port odd bank. The single port memory device is then accessed based on the mapping. An initial number of entries from the access table are retrieved in order to read addresses in the memory device until a predetermined delay expires. Simultaneous operations are then performed to read from rows in the memory device and write to rows in the memory device. Once all memory addresses have been read, write operations are sequentially performed in rows of the memory device based on the remaining entries of the access table.

Abstract: A system includes an antenna and a receiver. The antenna receives an encoded satellite signal having a plurality of frames. The receiver receives the satellite signal from the antenna and iteratively processes each frame a predetermined number of times. The number of times the frame is processed is based at least on part on a characteristic of the frame. Moreover, the receiver terminates frame processing earlier if a condition, associated with the processing of the frame, exists. An example receiver includes a decoder that decodes the satellite signal and extracts data from at least one frame by iteratively processing each frame the predetermined number of times. The receiver further includes a controller that generates a control signal representing the predetermined number of times the decoder is to iteratively process each frame. The controller generates the control signal based at least in part on a characteristic of the frame.
