Increasing communication safety by preventing false packet acceptance in high-speed links
10374751 · 2019-08-06 · ·

Methods, apparatus, and systems for preventing false packet acceptance in high-speed links. Under one aspect, correctable symbol errors are detected, and determination is made to whether a symbol error rate or ratio (SER) exceeds an SER threshold. In response to detection of such a condition, the link is disconnected or temporarily paused. The value for the SER threshold is determined using a statistical analysis of various link parameters to meet desired performance levels, such as a mean time to false packet acceptance (MTTFPA) of >approximately 15 billion years while providing a mean time to disconnect of >100 years.

DETECTING DATA IN MULTIANTENNA WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS
20190165901 · 2019-05-30 ·

A multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) wireless receiver is provided to detect data in MIMO streams received via a multi-antenna system. A filter based detector performs a first pass at decoding codewords in a MIMO bitstream, and then a parity check is performed to determine that the codewords were decoded correctly. If one or more codewords are decoded correctly, those codewords can be used as a candidate codeword and used to generate a bit log likelihood ratio as an input for a second MIMO detector pass which uses a list based MIMO detector. The first pass with a high speed, simple detector facilitates decreasing the list size for the second, optimum list based detector which helps improve overall throughput.

Systems and methods for establishing a diagnostic transmission mode and communicating over the same

Upon detection of a trigger, such as the exceeding of an error threshold or the direction of a user, a diagnostic link system enters a diagnostic information transmission mode. This diagnostic information transmission mode allows for two modems to exchange diagnostic and/or test information that may not otherwise be exchangeable during normal communication. The diagnostic information transmission mode is initiated by transmitting an initiate diagnostic link mode message to a receiving modem accompanied by a cyclic redundancy check (CRC). The receiving modem determines, based on the CRC, if a robust communications channel is present. If a robust communications channel is present, the two modems can initiate exchange of the diagnostic and/or test information. Otherwise, the transmission power of the transmitting modem is increased and the initiate diagnostic link mode message re-transmitted to the receiving modem until the CRC is determined to be correct.

Application of Error Detecting Codes in a Protocol-Translating Interconnect Circuit

In a data processing network, error detection information (EDI) is generated for first data of a first communication protocol of a plurality of communication protocols, the EDI including an error detection code and an associated validity indicator for each field group in a set of field groups. The first data and the EDI are sent through a network interconnect circuit, where the first data is translated to second data of a second communication protocol. An error is detected in the second data received from the network interconnect circuit when a validity indicator for a field group is set in EDI received with the second data and an error detection code generated for second data in the field group does not match the error detection code associated with the field group in the received EDI.
