Patent number: 9634743Abstract: A MIMO ARC transmitter derives demux streams (15, 20) carrying different parts of the information, at given data rates, processes each demux stream by coding and modulation (25, 30) before transmission over the channels, and varies (50, 165) the coding or modulation according to channel conditions, and controls the data rates (50, 155) according to conditions of the channels independently of the variations in coding and modulation. The separate control of processing and of data rates for each demux stream can provide a better balance of rapid response to changing conditions and efficiency in less rapidly changing conditions. The frequency of updating the processing can be limited since these take more time to adapt in the receiver. Sensitivity to rapid changes can be achieved by the data rate changes since these involve less overhead than changes in the processing.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2016Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventor: Yanmeng Sun

Method and system for processing radio packages in a multimode software defined radio (SDR) terminal
Patent number: 9077389Abstract: A technique for processing radio packages is disclosed. In an embodiment, the processing of a radio package is divided into subtasks and results of the radio package processing are stored on a per-subtask basis. Because the processing of a radio package is divided into subtasks and because results of the processing are stored on a per-subtask basis, context switches can be made at the subtask level instead of at the task level. With the ability to perform context switches at the subtask level, the processing of radio packages can be scheduled in a more efficient manner and context switches can be made without losing processing results that have already been generated. In addition to storing the processing results on a per-subtask basis, in an embodiment, a processing pipeline is drained on a per-subtask basis.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2009Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: NXP, B.V.Inventors: Liangliang Hu, Yanmeng Sun -

Patent number: 8687524Abstract: A multi-protocol, multi-standard, software-defined radio (SDR) includes one or more RF front ends to support each radio frequency band, and a programmable processor that replaces special-purpose hardware for the tuning and demodulation of each radio service. The programmable processor has limited peak processing capabilities, and calculations are made to see if present user terminal assignments will result in processing conflicts that could exceed the peak processing capabilities. In traffic slot applications in particular, any possible simultaneous arrival or overlap of traffic slots from the respective radio services is projected. If conflicts will result from the current user terminal assignments, then those assignments are reshuffled to obtain a non-conflicting result.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2009Date of Patent: April 1, 2014Assignee: NXP, B.V.Inventors: Yanmeng Sun, Liangliang Hu

Patent number: 8630170Abstract: A software-defined radio system processes radio signals on multiple radios according to a task scheduling method. The scheduling method includes assigning a priority value to each received radio packet, the assigned priority value reflective of preset radio preferences and risk of radio packet loss, and determining a processing execution order for the received radio packets according to earliest associated processing deadline. If there is sufficient time to process each of the radio packets in the processing execution order ahead of their associated processing deadlines, the radio packet are so processed. Otherwise, the radio packet having the lowest priority is abandoned, the radio packets are re-ordered, and time sufficiency is re-checked.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2009Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignee: NXP, B.V.Inventors: Liangliang Hu, Yanmeng Sun
