TRANSMISSION DEVICE, CONTROL DEVICE, AND TRANSMISSION METHOD
A transmission device includes a first signal processing circuit configured to average transmission quality of a first data signal based on a third data signal, a second signal processing circuit configured to average transmission quality of a second data signal based on a fourth data signal; and a processor configured to allocate a channel in a transmission path that transmits the first data signal and a channel in a transmission path that transmits the second data signal, based on a first index value indicating transmission quality of a first optical signal in the transmission path, the first optical signal being generated based on the averaged first data signal and a second index value indicating transmission quality of a second optical signal in the transmission path, the second optical signal being generated based on the averaged second data signal.
Adaptation of a transmit equalizer using management registers
Selection of equalization coefficients to configure a communications link between a receiver in a host system and a transmitter in an optical or electrical communication module is performed by a management entity with access to management registers in the receiver and transmitter. Continuous modification of the selected equalization coefficients is enabled on the communications link after the communications link is established to handle varying operating conditions such as temperature and humidity.
SPC SENSOR INTERFACE WITH PARTIAL PARITY PROTECTION
A sensor system is configured to communicate at least partially protected sensor data over a communication interface. The sensor system includes a sensor element and a communication interface communicatively coupled to the sensor element. The sensor element is configured to provide sensor data in the digital domain. The communication interface is configured to generate a data package for transmission over the communication interface from the sensor data. The data package includes a data grouping comprising one or more nibbles related to the sensor data. The data package further includes a nibble indicia based on at least a portion of selected nibbles within the data grouping.
DATA TRANSFER
This application relates to methods and apparatus for transfer of multiple digital data streams, especially of digital audio data over a single communications link such as a single wire. The application describes audio interface circuitry comprising a pulse-length-modulation (PLM) modulator (204). The PLM is responsive to a plurality of data streams (PDM-R, PDM-L), to generate a series of data pulses (PLM) with a single data pulse having a rising and falling edge in each of a plurality of transfer periods defined by a first clock signal (TCLK). The timing of the rising and falling edge of each data pulse is dependent upon on a combination of the then current data samples from the plurality of data streams. The duration and position of the data pulse in the transfer window in effect defines a data symbol encoding the data. Circuitry for receiving and extracting the data is also disclosed. An interface receives the stream of data pulses (PLM) and data extraction circuitry (202) samples the data pulse to determine which of the possible data symbols the pulse represents and determines a data value for at least one received data stream.

METHOD FOR BANDPASS SAMPLING BY POSITION MODULATED WAVELETS
The present invention relates to a wavelet bandpass sampling method, with low aliasing and a corresponding device. The analogue signal to sample is correlated with a sequence of wavelets succeeding each other with a rate f.sub.p of which the positions in the sequence are temporally modulated from arguments of a CAZAC sequence, notably a Zadoff-Chu sequence. The correlation results are next sampled at a frequency f.sub.sf.sub.p and digitally converted to provide a compressed representation of the signal. The temporal modulation of the positions of the wavelets makes it possible to obtain incoherent aliasing of the correlation signal in the sampling band and thereby to reduce aliasing.

In one aspect, the system includes a set of slicers configured to generate a slicer output signal digitally indicating a level of an input signal received by the set of slicers.

The system includes a feedback generator coupled to the decoder, where the feedback generator is configured to generate a feedback signal according to the decoded bits of the slicer output signal.
