摘要： The present invention provides a system and methods for coding and decoding digital data to improve the subjective quality of a voice signal. According to the invention, a sampled voice waveform is compressed by an ADPCM algorithm resulting in a sequence of samples. The sequence of samples are formed into an array and coded into parity bits. Row and column checksums are preferably performed on the parity bits to form row and column vectors. The samples and row and column vectors are transmitted to a receiving unit preferably having a diversity capability. The receiver processes each diversity block by generating row and column vectors from the received samples and comparing the generated row and column vectors to the row and column vectors received. Then based on the comparison, the samples of the best diversity block are used to reconstruct the voice waveform on a sample-by-sample basis.

摘要： The present invention is a novel method and apparatus for a dual-mode radio (DMR) in a wireless communication system. The present invention allows Bluetooth™ protocol and 802.11 protocol devices to co-exist. The present inventive method classifies Bluetooth™ protocol and 802.11 protocol events according to importance. In the basic dual-mode radio method, the present invention assigns two levels of importance or priority Bluetooth™ events: “high” and “low”. In the enhanced dual-mode radio method, the present invention assigns three levels of importance or priority to Bluetooth™ events: “high”, “low” and “promotable”. The present inventive apparatus provides a means for disabling 802.11 transmissions when high-priority Bluetooth™ events are detected.

摘要： The present invention is a novel method and apparatus for controlling packet data flow in Bluetooth devices. The present Bluetooth flow control method and apparatus reduces data buffer overflow conditions using an inventive flow control technique comprising a dual flow control step and a payload header flow control step. In the dual flow control step, the present inventive method initially enables (i.e., transmits to a transmitting device) both packet header flow control and payload header flow control. In one embodiment, the Bluetooth flow control technique utilizes non-acknowledgment of “nack” commands to enable packet header flow control. In another embodiment, the Bluetooth flow control technique utilizes a packet header flow control bit to enable packet header flow control. In the payload header flow control step, the method determines whether payload header flow control information has been successfully received and, if so, it disables packet header flow control.

摘要： An apparatus for receiving signals includes a low noise amplifier (LNA) configured to receive a radio frequency (RF) signal. An I/Q direct down converter is coupled to the LNA. The I/Q direct down converter is configured to split the RF signal into real and imaginary components and to down convert the real and imaginary components directly to baseband signals. A local oscillator (LO) is coupled to the I/Q direct down converter and is configured to drive the I/Q direct down converter. First and second filters are coupled to the I/Q direct down converter. The first and second filters are configured to filter the down converted real and imaginary components, respectively. First and second analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are coupled to the first and second filters, respectively. The first and second ADCs are configured to convert the real and imaginary components into digital signals. The first and second ADCs have a dynamic range that is wide enough to convert the filtered, down converted real and imaginary components to digital signals without using variable gain on the filtered and down converted real and imaginary components. An apparatus for use in wireless communications includes a radio, a modem and a controller integrated onto a single integrated circuit (IC). The radio includes a receiver for receiving data and a transmitter for transmitting data. The modem is coupled to the radio and is configured to demodulate received data and modulate data for transmission. The controller is coupled to the modem and includes a digital interface for external communications through which received data and data for transmission is sent, a connection state machine configured to accept commands through the digital interface and to respond to the commands by initiating a sequence, and a receive/transmit state machine configured to perform state control of the radio in response to the initiated sequence.

摘要： The present invention is a novel method and apparatus for implementing a high-precision timer utilizing a non-optimal oscillator and a high-speed oscillator wherein only one oscillator is enabled at a given moment in time. The high-precision timer method and apparatus comprises a timer and an error-correction technique. In one embodiment, the timer of the present invention is constructed from a high-speed oscillator and a low-speed non-optimal oscillator. The timer operates from the high-speed oscillator during on-the-air modes of operation and from the low-speed non-optimal oscillator during sleep modes of operation. The present inventive method corrects errors that are introduced by the non-optimal oscillator and a swallow counter. The errors are corrected using an error-correction technique having two steps: an error-determination step and an error-correction step. In the preferred embodiment of the error-determination step, a total error for a time interval is determined by performing the following steps: (1) calculating an individual error that occurs at each pulse; (2) multiplying the individual error by the number of pulses occurring during the time interval; and (3) adjusting for a non-optimal counter. Once an error has been determined, the error-correction step adjusts a clock counter accordingly. Depending upon the error-correction technique used, the error-correction step can correct the total error at one of several locations within a timer counter chain that is used to practice the present invention. The implementation of the present invention allows a straightforward realization of multiple timers.
