20080225937 | METHOD AND SYSTEM OF PROVIDING A HIGH SPEED TOMLINSON-HARASHIMA PRECODER - Herein described are at least a method and a system for implementing a high speed Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder. The method comprises using an L-tap transpose configuration of a Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder and processing a first discrete time sampled sequence using said L coefficients and L state variables by clocking the L-tap Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder using a clock signal wherein the clock signal has a clock rate equal to one half the symbol rate of the discrete time sampled sequence. In a representative embodiment, an L-tap Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder comprises a single integrated circuit chip, wherein the integrated circuit chip comprises at least one circuitry for processing a discrete time sampled sequence using L coefficients and L state variables by way of clocking the discrete time sampled sequence using a clock signal having a clock rate that is one half the symbol rate of the discrete time sampled sequence. | 09-18-2008 |
20100074167 | Downstream Time Domain Based Adaptive Modulation for DOCSIS Based Applications - In a DOCSIS based satellite gateway data is transmitted over a single downstream channel, at different throughput rates. Data destined for each subscriber/receiver is assigned a throughput rate depending upon the downstream signal quality of that subscriber/receiver. To accomplish this, the downstream DOCSIS MAC data is parsed to extract DOCSIS packets. The DOCSIS packets are then loaded into packet queues based on an identifier within such packets such as the MAC destination address or SID. Each of the queues represents a bandwidth efficiency or throughput rate that can be currently tolerated by specific subscribers based on the current signal quality being experienced at the subscriber location. A PHY-MAP describing the downstream data structure to be transmitted and inserted into the downstream data. Data is extracted from the packet queues in queue blocks as defined by the PHY-MAP. The queue blocks are modulated with transmission parameters appropriate for each queue block and transmitted to the DOCSIS based satellite modems. The satellite modems extract the PHY-MAP from the downstream data and use the information contained in it to demodulate and decode the queue for which they have sufficient downstream signal quality. Satellite modems measure and transmit downstream signal quality to the satellite gateway to be used to assigned traffic to the appropriate queues. | 03-25-2010 |

Data destined for each subscriber/receiver is assigned a throughput rate depending upon the downstream signal quality of that subscriber/receiver. The downstream data is parsed to extract data packets. The data packets are then loaded into packet queues based on an identifier within such packets. The queues represent a bandwidth efficiency or throughput rate that can be currently tolerated by specific subscribers that may also be based on the current signal quality at a subscriber location. The parsed data traffic is processed based on the profile of the plurality of profiles to produce processed data traffic, and transmitted from the packet queues over a downstream channel. | 10-10-2013 |

20130297991 | FEC (forward error correction) decoder with dynamic parameters - FEC (Forward Error Correction) decoder with dynamic parameters. A novel means by which FEC parameters may be encoded into, and subsequently extracted from, a signal stream to allow for adaptive changing of any 1 or more operational parameters that govern communications across a communication channel. FEC parameters are encoded directly into a data frame such that the data frame is treated identical to all other data frames within the signal stream. When the data frame actually includes FEC parameters, it is characterized as a CP (Control Packet) type. For example, when decoding an MPEG stream, an MPEG block that includes FEC parameters, that MPEG block is characterized as a CP MPEG block. The means by which FEC parameters are encoded and extracted from the signal stream allows for much easier adaptive modification of the manner by which signal are encoded, modulated, and processed within a communication system. | 11-07-2013 |
