Method and apparatus for geolocating a wireless communications device

The time difference of arrival for a signal received at two or more receiving sites as transmitted from a wireless communications device, is determined by a frequency domain technique. The constituent frequencies of the signals received at the two or more receiving sites are determined, including the phase, or a value representative of the phase, of each frequency component. The phase values for the same frequency are subtracted to yield a phase difference values as a function of frequency. The slope of the function represents the time difference of arrival for the wireless communications device signal as received at the two receiving sites. To determine the mobile location based on the determined time difference of arrival values, a seed or initial location is first assumed for the wireless communications device and the distance difference of arrival (the time difference of arrival multiplied by the speed of light) is calculated. The calculated time difference of arrival is then used to adjust the distance difference of arrival by continuously iterating the position of the wireless communications device until the calculated distance of arrival and the calculated time difference of arrival (as multiplied by the speed of light) are within a predetermined margin.

PMD-insensitive method of chromatic dispersion estimation for a coherent receiver

Consistent with the present disclosure, a method and system for estimating chromatic dispersion of an optical signal in a coherent receiver is provided that is insensitive to polarization mode dispersion (PMD) and other polarization effects in the optical communication system. The effects of chromatic dispersion in the optical system are estimated by first calculating a phase shift between a pair of related frequency domain data outputs of a Fourier transform circuit. The calculated phase shift includes a linear phase component that is proportional to the chromatic dispersion, a DC constant phase component, and a data spectrum component. The calculated phase shift is then averaged over a number of clock cycles to remove the data spectrum components. The time averaged result is used to normalize any effects of PMD from the received signal. A slope of the linear phase component as a function of frequency is then calculated and used to estimate the value for chromatic dispersion. The chromatic dispersion estimate is then used to determine a number of coefficients of an inverse frequency response of the chromatic dispersion in the system, and is used to compensate for the chromatic dispersion.

Method of processing a digital signal derived from a direct-sequence spread spectrum signal and a receiver

Complex digital data values derived from a DSSS signal, in particular, a GNSS signal, are delivered to a general purpose microprocessor at a rate of 8 MHz and chip sums over eight consecutive data values spaced by a sampling length (TS), each beginning with one of the data values as an initial value, formed and stored. For code removal, each of a series of chip sums covering a correlation interval of 1 ms and each essentially coinciding with a chip interval of fixed chip length (TC), where a value of a basic function (bm) reflecting a PRN basic sequence of a satellite assumes a correlation value (Bm), is multiplied by the latter and the products added up over a partial correlation interval to form a partial correlation sum. The partial correlation interval is chosen in such a way that it essentially coincides with a corresponding Doppler interval having a Doppler length (TD) where a frequency function used for tentative Doppler shift compensation and represented by a step function (sine, cosine) is constant. The partial correlation sums are then each multiplied by the value assumed by the frequency function in the corresponding Doppler interval and the products added up to form a correlation sum.

Dispersion extraction for acoustic data using time frequency analysis

This invention pertains to the extraction of the slowness dispersion characteristics of acoustic waves received by an array of two or more sensors by the application of a continuous wavelet transform on the received array waveforms (data). This produces a time-frequency map of the data for each sensor that facilitates the separation of the propagating components thereon. Two different methods are described to achieve the dispersion extraction by exploiting the time frequency localization of the propagating mode and the continuity of the dispersion curve as a function of frequency. The first method uses some features on the modulus map such as the peak to determine the time locus of the energy of each mode as a function of frequency. The second method uses a new modified Radon transform applied to the coefficients of the time frequency representation of the waveform traces received by the aforementioned sensors. Both methods are appropriate for automated extraction of the dispersion estimates from the data without the need for expert user input or supervision.

Spectral enhancement using digital frequency warping

A frequency-warped processing system using either sample-by-sample or block processing is provided. Such a system can be used, for example, in a hearing aid to increase the dynamic-range contrast in the speech spectrum, thus improving ease of listening and possibly speech intelligibility. The processing system is comprised of a cascade of all-pass filters that provide the frequency warping. The power spectrum is computed from the warped sequence and then compression gains are computed from the warped power spectrum for the auditory analysis bands. Spectral enhancement gains are also computed in the warped sequence allowing a net compression-plus-enhancement gain function to be produced. The gain versus frequency function is a set of pure real numbers, so the inverse frequency domain transform gives a set of time-domain filter coefficients. The speech segment is convolved with the enhancement filter in the warped time-domain to give the processed output signal. Processing artifacts are reduced since the frequency-warped system has no temporal aliasing.
