146 results about "QAM" patented technology

QAM is a digital television standard using quadrature amplitude modulation. It is the format by which digital cable channels are encoded and transmitted via cable television providers. QAM is used in a variety of communications systems such as Dial-up modems and WiFi. In cable systems, a QAM tuner is linked to the cable in a manner that is equivalent to an ATSC tuner which is required to receive over-the-air (OTA) digital channels broadcast by local television stations when attached to an antenna. Most new HDTV digital televisions support both of these standards. QAM uses the same 6 MHz bandwidth as ATSC, using a standard known as ITU-T Recommendation J.83 Annex B ("J.83b").

Systems and Methods for Supporting Both Pulse Amplitude Modulation and Quadrature Amplitude Modulation

Systems and devices are provided for receiving or transmitting IQ data (e.g., suitable for passband quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM)) over a wireline using pairs of baseband pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-n) signals. Encoding circuitry may map data from an input bit stream to IQ data that includes an in-phase component and a quadrature-phase component. Modulator circuitry may determine an in-phase PAM-n signal based on the in-phase component and a quadrature-phase PAM-n signal based on the quadrature-phase component. Driver circuitry may transmit the in-phase PAM-n signal and the quadrature-phase PAM-n signal across a wireline channel. The in-phase PAM-n signal may be different by 90° from the quadrature-phase PAM-n signal. This may enable a remote receiver on the wireline channel to detect the in-phase PAM-n signal independently of the quadrature-phase PAM-n signal.

Methods and apparatus for using a phase tracking reference signal with a single carrier waveform

Aspects of the present application provide methods and devices for a phase tracking reference (PT-RS) scheme for use by a single carrier Offset QAM (SC-OQAM) transmitter and receiver to estimate, and correct, phase errors that occur over the communication link between the SC-OQAM transmitter and receiver. A transmitter may set the sign (positive or negative) of PT-RS symbols dynamically allowing the transmitter to better utilize IQ interference caused by data symbols and other PT-RS symbols. Another aspect of the present disclosure provides a receiver that can estimate phase error due to phase noise without knowing the sign of PT-RS symbol or the sign of IQ interference. This type of phase error estimation improves the phase noise estimation performance, and thus may improve the overall block error rate (BLER) performance at the receiver.

Non-binary polar codes for probabilistic amplitude shaping

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. Some aspects more specifically provide procedures and configurations used to perform, at a transmitter, probabilistic amplitude shaping (PAS) of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) communications using non-binary polar coding (NBPC). NBPC differs from binary polar coding (BPC) in that BPC uses a binary-input channel whereas NBPC uses a non-binary input channel. For example, while BPC uses a log likelihood ratio (LLR) with a single value corresponding to a given bit to be shaped, NBPC may use a probability mass function (PMF) to define or represent amplitude shaping target values. As another example, aspects use non-binary transformations, which reduce the number of passes to shape q bits from q passes (for BPC) to 1 pass (for NBPC).
