Advanced detectors for vector signaling codes are disclosed which utilize multi-input comparators, generalized on-level slicing, reference generation based on maximum swing, and reference generation based on recent values. Vector signaling codes communicate information as groups of symbols which, when transmitted over multiple communications channels, may be received as mixed sets of symbols from different transmission groups due to propagation time variations between channels.

Digital code recovery with preamble
A digital code recovery circuit includes a data transmitter that outputs either input data or a preamble code as transmitter data. A radio frequency interconnect (RFI) transmitter modulates carrier signals based on the transmitter data and transmits the modulated carrier signals over a channel to an RFI receiver that demodulates the carrier signals to obtain recovered transmitter data. A calibration storage device stores preamble data and a calibration circuit receives the recovered transmitter data. If the recovered transmitter data originated from the preamble code, the calibration circuit determines a set of digital calibration adjustments from the recovered transmitter data and the preamble data. If the recovered transmitter data originated from the input data, the calibration circuit applies the set of digital calibration adjustments to the recovered transmitter data to obtain adjusted digital code and outputs the adjusted digital code.

Method and a system for a receiver design in bandwidth constrained communication systems
The present invention relates to a method of improving the performance in bandwidth constrained communication systems while reducing the complexity of the equalizer used for information retrieval, as well as to improving the capacity of communication systems. The said properties are achieved by appropriate information encoding, prior to signal shaping before transmission, whereas the equalizer complexity is reduced by applying the intersymbol interference shortening filter prior to the information retrieving equalization. A proper combination of the recounted elements is capable of providing a qualitatively improved and previously unsuspected performance, as compared to its constituent elements.
Blind source separation of signals having low signal-to-noise ratio
A blind source separation (BSS) system comprises means for gathering wideband signal power spectral information without using special Fourier transform hardware/software systems and without using extremely large signal memories. The method involves taking the combined energy output of a large set of BSS filters that are operating under a blind source separation algorithm that looks for signals of interest, along with instantaneous filter characteristics such as center frequency, bandwidth and spectral response, and records a weighted spread energy into a frequency- and time-based histogram. This information can then be used to compare against the BSS signal output and signal energy which does not correspond to existing signal output is added to additional BSS signal output. This system can operate in real time, but uses long-term averaging to enhance signal detection.
