Patent number: 8385441Abstract: A method for communication includes, in a transmitter having a first number of transmit antenna ports, setting an upper limit on a second number of spatial layers to be used by the transmitter to be less than the first number. An actual number of the spatial layers, which does not exceed the upper limit, is allocated for transmission to a given receiver. One or more streams of modulated symbols are mapped onto the allocated actual number of the spatial layers. The actual number of the spatial layers are transmitted from the transmitter to the given receiver. A precoding operation maps the spatial layers onto the transmit antenna ports. A first upper limit is set when the precoding operation depends on feedback from the given receiver. A second upper limit, which does not exceed the first upper limit, is set when the precoding operation is not dependent on the feedback.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2009Date of Patent: February 26, 2013Assignee: Marvell World Trade Ltd.Inventors: Yona Perets, Krishna Srikanth Gomadam, Adoram Erell, Daniel Yellin, Ezer Melzer

Patent number: 8260328Abstract: A mobile user equipment includes a user equipment clock and a dual mode time tracker. The clock periodically wakes up the user equipment. The dual mode time tracker uses a serving cell reference signal to correct timing errors of the user equipment clock with respect to a network clock while timing errors remain minimal and otherwise uses a serving cell synchronization signal to correct timing errors of the user equipment clock. The dual mode time tracker also sets a next wakeup time as a function at least of the size of the timing errors.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2009Date of Patent: September 4, 2012Assignee: Marvell International Ltd.Inventors: Daniel Yellin, Ronen Mayrench, Yona Perets

Patent number: 8254864Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) receiver that reduces the total time required to generate communication channel received signal strength estimates, e.g., RSSI, RSRP, etc., for a plurality of communication channels. A received RF signal may be processed in the frequency domain to generate a power density spectrum for an RF spectrum frequency range that encompasses a plurality of communication channels. A communication channel received signal strength estimate may be generated based on the generated power density spectrum for each communication channels within the RF spectrum frequency range. Receiver RF bandwidth limitations may be overcome by dividing the RF spectrum frequency range into segments which may be separately processed by the RF receiver to produce communication channel received signal strength estimates for the communication channels within each RF spectrum segment.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2008Date of Patent: August 28, 2012Assignee: Marvell Israel (M.I.S.L) Ltd.Inventors: Yona Perets, Javier Frydman

Publication number: 20110286371Abstract: A method for communication includes providing a first transceiver configured to communicate with a second transceiver over a bi-directional link having a first aggregation of frequencies that are assigned to carry first communication traffic in a first link direction from the first transceiver to the second transceiver and a second aggregation of frequencies that are assigned to carry second communication traffic in a second link direction from the second transceiver to the first transceiver. Communication feedback is transmitted from the first transceiver to the second transceiver communication feedback at an adaptive feedback rate. The feedback rate is determined so as to achieve a desired balance between the information carrying capacities of the first and second aggregations. An information carrying capacity of the second aggregation is controlled responsively to the communication feedback.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2011Publication date: November 24, 2011Inventors: Daniel Yellin, Yona Perets, Itsik Bergel
