System and method for determination of position

A system and method of determining and reporting on the position of a wireless device relative to a group of other wireless devices dispersed within a specified geographic area. The system includes at least one Query Unit, three or more Responding Units disposed at determinable locations within the specified geographic area, and one or more Mobile Units, which may correspond to additional Responding Units or units that function only as receivers. The Query Unit sequentially queries the Responding Units, and, responsive to the respective query messages, the Responding Units transmit corresponding response messages. One or more of the Mobile Units receive the query and response messages, and generate, for each query-response message pair, a set of time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) measurements, which are used by the Mobile Units to determine their positions relative to the Responding Units. The Mobile Units record the times-of-arrival (TOAs) of the query message and the response messages at their respective receivers, and calculate the TDOAs based on the recorded TOAs. The TDOAs are then analyzed to determine the time differences due to the differences in lengths of the respective message propagation paths. The position of each Mobile Unit can then be computed using computation techniques typically employed in Long Range Navigation (LORAN) receivers, or any other suitable computation technique.

DC compensation system for a wireless communication device configured in a zero intermediate frequency architecture

A wireless communication device including a radio frequency (RF) circuit, a ZIF transceiver and a baseband processor. The ZIF transceiver includes an RF mixer circuit that converts the RF signal to a baseband input signal, a summing junction that subtracts a DC offset from the baseband input signal to provide an adjusted baseband input signal, and a baseband amplifier that receives the adjusted baseband input signal and that asserts an amplified input signal based on a gain adjust signal. The baseband processor includes gain control logic, DC control logic and a gain interface. The gain control logic receives the amplified input signal, estimates input signal power and asserts the gain adjust signal in an attempt to keep the input signal power at a target power level. The DC control logic estimates an amount of DC in the amplified input signal and provides the DC offset in an attempt to reduce DC in the amplified input signal. The gain interface converts gain levels between the gain control logic and the DC control logic. The RF signal may include in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) portions, where the RF mixer circuit splits I and Q baseband input signals from the RF signal. Operation is substantially identical for both I and Q channels. The DC control logic operates to remove or otherwise eliminate DC from the received signal that is provided to decoders in the baseband processor.

Calibrated DC compensation system for a wireless communication device configured in a zero intermediate frequency architecture

A calibrated DC compensation system for a wireless communication device configured in a zero intermediate frequency (ZIF) architecture. The device includes a ZIF transceiver and a baseband processor, which further includes a calibrator that periodically performs a calibration procedure. The baseband processor includes gain control logic, DC control logic, a gain converter and the calibrator. The gain converter converts gain between the gain control logic and the DC control logic. The calibrator programs the gain converter with values determined during the calibration procedure. The gain converter may be a lookup table that stores gain conversion values based on measured gain of a baseband gain amplifier of the ZIF transceiver. The gain control logic may further include a gain adjust limiter that limits change of a gain adjust signal during operation based on a maximum limit or on one or more gain change limits. A second lookup table stores a plurality of DC adjust values, which are added during operation to further reduce DC offset. The calibration procedure includes sampling an output signal for each gain step of the baseband amplifier at two predetermined range values and corresponding DC offsets using successive approximation. The data is used to calculate gain, DC offset and DC differential values, which are used to determine the conversion values programmed into the lookup tables or the gain adjust limiter.
