A continuous-time sampler has series-connected delay lines with intermediate output taps between the delay lines. Signal from an output tap can be buffered by an optional voltage buffer for performance. A corresponding controlled switch is provided with each output tap to connect the output tap to an output of the continuous-time sampler. The delay lines store a continuous-time input signal waveform within the propagation delays. Controlling the switches corresponding to the output taps with pulses that match the propagation delays can yield a same input signal value at the output. The continuous-time sampler effectively holds or provides the input signal value at the output for further processing without requiring switched-capacitor circuits that sample the input signal value onto some capacitor. In some cases, the continuous-time sampler can be a recursively-connected delay line. The continuous-time sampler can be used as the front end sampler in a variety of analog-to-digital converters.

The techniques described herein relate to methods, apparatus, and computer readable media configured to decode modulated data. A modulated signal is received. A format of the modulated signal is determined, wherein the format can include a first format comprising a first type of modulated signal, or a second format comprising the first type of modulated signal and a second type of modulated signal that is different than the first type. The modulated signal is decoded by determining a frequency shift amount based on the format of the modulated signal, shifting a frequency band of the first type of modulated signal from an original position to a shifted position, thereby shifting a center frequency of the first type of modulated signal by the frequency shift amount, and filtering, based on the format of the modulated signal, signals outside of the frequency band of the shifted first type of modulated signal.

A communication device receives a reception signal including at least a first reception signal and a second reception signal, where the first reception signal is a signal to be transmitted using a first set of subcarriers and the second reception signal is a signal to be transmitted using a second set of subcarriers which overlaps with at least one end of the first set of subcarriers in a time frame. The communication device also demodulates information indicating data included in the first reception signal after reducing the second reception signal transmitted by using one or more overlapping subcarriers of the second set of subcarriers from the reception signal.

A frequency demodulated signal includes a frequency modulation in time that is shifted by a DC level corresponding to a carrier frequency offset. A number of different frequency offsets are applied to the frequency demodulated signal to generate a corresponding number of offset frequency demodulated signals. Each offset frequency demodulated signal is correlated against a reference signal and a determination is made as to which correlation produces a highest correlation value. One offset frequency demodulated signal of the number of offset frequency demodulated signals is then selected for output as an offset corrected frequency demodulated signal. The selected signal is the one having the highest correlation value.

A signal demodulation apparatus and method for a closed communication system are provided. An analog voltage comparator is configured to convert a modulated signal and output the digital signal. The modulated signal is a 2ASK, 2FSK or 2PSK modulated signal. A sampling decider is configured to sample the digital signal to obtain a sampled digital signal. The sampling decider includes a high-frequency clock sampling circuit and a feature extracting and deciding circuit. The high-frequency clock sampling circuit is configured to sample the digital signal and to sample at least two points for a high level of any pulse of the digital signal. The feature extracting and deciding circuit is configured to extract a feature of the sampled digital signal to obtain an extracted feature of the sampled digital signal, and compare the extracted feature with features of known digital modulated signals to acquire a value represented by the digital signal.
