A data recovery circuit provides compensation for baseline wander exhibited by a data signal. An adaptive equalizer generates a recovered data signal from a data input. A level shifter and low-pass filter provide a compensation signal as a function of the recovered data signal. An adaptation engine adjusts the level of the compensation signal to compensate for baseline wander. The adaptive equalizer generates the recovered data signal as a function of the data input and the compensation signal, thereby providing accurate recovery of the data signal.

A data processing method and a system for performing the data processing method, in which data are transferred between various network subscribers of a network in a communication cycle and multiple data processing devices are provided as network subscribers. A respective process cycle is run through by each of the multiple data processing devices. The communication cycle is synchronized here with the process cycle of at least one of the multiple data processing devices such that, during a temporal run-through of the communication cycle, a predetermined process step of the process cycle of at least one of the multiple data processing devices is carried out during a time interval, assigned to this predetermined process step, of the communication cycle.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for facilitating robustness for synchronization signal block (SSB) are provided. A network node may attempt to transmit SSBs in first positions. For example, the network node may perform a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure prior to transmitting the SSBs, and transmissions of the SSBs may fail or succeed based on failure or success of the LBT procedure. If the transmissions fail, the network node may attempt to transmit the failed SSBs in second SSB positions. For example, the second SSB positions may be associated with the first positions, and may be reserved for retransmission of SSBs that fail in the corresponding first positions. If the network node transmits the SSBs, the UE may perform various operations described herein including, e.g., determining whether the SSBs were transmitted in the first positions or the second positions and/or an SSB index or timing.

A system and method for estimating clock drift in underwater instruments is provided. The method can include transmitting a signal from a source to a plurality of underwater receivers or a single receiver. Upon recovery of the underwater receivers, an initial sampling frequency value can be used to generate received data waveforms from data stored on each underwater device. The generated received waveforms can be used to generate a channel estimate for each receiver, and the channel estimates can be used to provide an estimate of the source motion during the transmission. The estimated source motion can then be used to estimate the clock drift.

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. Systems and methods are disclosed which compensate receivers and transmitters for these effects and/or utilize codes having increased immunity to such variations, and circuits are described that efficiently implement their component functions.

A multiple access scheme is described. A first bit stream is scrambled from a first terminal according to a first scrambling signature. A second bit stream is scrambled from a second terminal according to a second scrambling signature, wherein the first bit stream and the second bit stream are encoded using a low rate code. The first scrambling signature and the second scrambling signature are assigned, respectively, to the first terminal and the second terminal to provide a multiple access scheme.

Systems and methods for low-power single-wire communication are provided. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a transmitter to transmit a data word to a receiver using low-power single-wire communication includes receiving the data word to be transmitted to the receiver. The method also includes encoding the data word to be transmitted in a Pulsed Index Communication (PIC) format to produce a PIC data word and transmitting the PIC data word to the receiver. In this way, the transmitter may be able to transmit an increased amount of data while maintaining a simple communication protocol that uses low power and does not require a Clock-Data Recovery circuit.

A wireless transmission method and a transceiver for wireless transmission are disclosed. According to this method, information to be transmitted and transmission control information are encoded into packet length information of wireless frames for transmission, wherein the transmission control information is filled into synchronization packets, sequence number packets and data packets, and the information to be transmitted is only filled into the data packets. Specifically, the method includes sequentially polling data for transmission in units of transmission sequences, and longitudinally encoding the information to be transmitted and data check information into the data packets. The transmission sequences are separated and sorted by the synchronization packets and the sequence number packets, and the data packets are sorted by sequence number fields in the transmission sequence.

Embodiments of this application disclose a data processing method, which can be applied to a clock synchronization network system. The system can correct, based on a clock frequency error or a time error, a data timestamp of a data packet collected by the system in a time period in which there is no reference clock, so that a corrected system time of the data packet is consistent with a reference time. This improves accuracy of data record.
