Patent number: 9112607Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for filtering data from an optical signal to compensate for chromatic dispersion in an optical path. Samples of different polarizations are filtered in the frequency domain with a matched filter by time-sharing a conversion module. The conversion module first converts a set of samples to the frequency domain for filtering when in a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) configuration and then converts the filtered set of samples back to the time domain when in an Inverse FFT (IFFT) configuration. The size of the FFT in the FFT configuration and of the IFFT in the IFFT configuration is the same as the size of the samples being processed by the conversion module to enable both configurations to be based on a set of constant multipliers. Both configurations may be based on a pipelined architecture to sequentially process the samples in an efficient manner.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: August 18, 2015Assignee: ViaSat, Inc.Inventors: Sameep Dave, Fan Mo, Yuri Zelensky, Eric Fowlie

Patent number: 9112615Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for detecting and correcting a cycle slip occurrence in a coherent receiver. Unique words are used in each received frame to detect phase changes that indicate the occurrence of a cycle slip within a frame. The location of the cycle slip is identified based on measurements made within the frame. Those measurements include phase estimation measurements and reliability measurements. A phase of a portion of the frame subsequent to the identified location of the cycle slip is adjusted to correct for the cycle slip. By combining phase estimates of symbols from both vertical and horizontal polarizations, the location of the cycle slip may be more accurately determined because the measurement windows is less susceptible to thermal noise. The phase estimates are combined by adjusting a phase of the symbols of one polarization to match a phase of the symbols of the other polarization.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: August 18, 2015Assignee: ViaSat, Inc.Inventors: William Thesling, Fan Mo, Yuri Zelensky

Patent number: 8886051Abstract: Compensation for in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) timing skew and offset in an optical signal may be achieved based on the correlation between derivatives of I and Q samples in the optical signal. The magnitude of the correlation between derivatives is measured to determine the presence of skew. Correlation between derivatives may be coupled with frequency offset information and/or with trials having additional positive and negative skew to determine presence of skew. Correlations are determined according to pre-defined time periods to provide for continued tracking and compensation for timing skew that may result from, for example, thermal drift.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2014Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: ViaSat, Inc.Inventors: Yuri Zelensky, Fan Mo

Patent number: 8705977Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for tap adjustment and reseeding in a digital filter. Filter and signal characteristics are measured and tap adjustments and reseeding of tap values may be performed based on the filter and signal characteristics. Filter characteristics that may be measured include a filter center of mass which may provide an indication that filter taps for a filter may be drifting toward a filter edge and thus reducing the dynamic range of the filter. Signal characteristics may include a timing offset between received input signals, and characteristics related to which of a particular input signal is present at a filter output. Filter taps, according to various embodiments, may be adjusted, and/or re-initialized responsive to one or more of the signal or filter characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2012Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: ViaSat, Inc.Inventors: Fan Mo, Sameep Dave, Yuri Zelensky
