  • Apparatus for dedicated hardware and software split implementation of rate matching and de-matching
    Patent number: 9083502
    Abstract: In the method of rate-matching, software is used to calculate at least one rate-matching parameter for data, and dedicated hardware is used to perform at least one of a puncturing and repetition process on data based on the calculated rate-matching parameter. In rate de-matching, software is again used to calculate at least one rate de-matching parameter for received data, and dedicated hardware is used to compensate for puncturing and repetition based on the calculated rate de-matching parameter.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: July 14, 2015
    Assignee: Alcatel Lucent
    Inventors: Mark P. Barry, Yi-Chen J. Li, Oliver J. Ridler
