METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR FILTER FREQUENCY RESPONSE SHIFT COMPENSATION FOR WLAN TRAFFIC

Systems and techniques are described that are directed to filter frequency response shift compensation, including compensating for shifting in the rejection band of the filter. Compensation for the shifting in the rejection band can include applying a pre-distortion to attenuate edge resource units (RUs), and applying PHY Protocol Data Unit (PPDU) scheduling schemes. For example, a PPDU scheduling scheme reduce bandwidth in the channel, thereby dropping the out of band RUs. Front ends provide feedback to a respective radio, which allows that radio to apply the appropriate pre-distortion. The front ends can include one or more filters enabling frequency domain coexistence between collocated radios operating in the differing Wi-Fi bands, and a coupler that provides the feedback indicating the frequency response shift to a radio. The radio can then apply a digital pre-distortion to compensate for the shifting in the rejection band.

A receiver can estimate the framer index and frequency offset using the pilot and framer symbols, and identify the beginning of a header portion of a data frame. By identifying the beginning of the header portion of a data frame, the receiver can then process data received from the transmitter in a manner synchronous to the manner in which the data was transmitted by the transmitter.

Adjusting receiver frequency to compensate for frequency offset during a sounding sequence used for fractional time determination

A mixer in a receiver converts a sounding sequence of alternating ones and zeros to an intermediate frequency signal. A digital mixer converts the intermediate frequency signal to a baseband signal that contains a positive tone and a negative tone. A frequency offset correction circuit generates frequency offset corrections based on frequency offset estimates of the frequency offset between a transmitter of the sounding sequence and the receiver. A frequency adjustment circuit adjusts a frequency of the mixer or the digital mixer to thereby center the positive tone and the negative tone around DC. DFT circuits perform single bin DFTs respectively centered on the positive and negative tones. Phases of the positive and negative tones are calculated based on outputs of the DFT circuits and the phases are used to determine fractional time value associated with a distance measurement between the transmitter and receiver.
