An Ethernet transceiver is disclosed. The Ethernet transceiver includes transmit circuitry having a forward error correction (FEC) encoder to encode data into FEC frames. A modulator modulates the FEC frames into symbols. A precoder equalizes the symbols and a transmitter transmits the equalized symbols over a reduced number of channels N.sub.S with respect to a baseline number of channels N.sub.0. For a reduced data rate B.sub.S with respect to a baseline data rate B.sub.0, the FEC frames are assembled by the FEC encoder to exhibit an expanded frame time FT.sub.S that is expanded from a baseline frame time FT.sub.0 by a factor of B.sub.0/B.sub.S. The modulator generates symbols that are transmitted by the transmit circuit at a symbol rate SR.sub.S that is reduced from a baseline symbol rate SR.sub.0 by a factor of (B.sub.0*N.sub.S)/(B.sub.S*N.sub.0).

Embodiments are disclosed for a lookup table-based coding mechanism for communication systems. An example method includes receiving a signal to be transmitted, converting the signal into a converted analog signal using a digital to analog converter, receiving channel state information for a channel, calibrating the lookup table based on the channel state information, utilizing the calibrated lookup table to generate a coded analog signal based on the converted signal, and transmitting the coded analog signal, wherein the coded signal compensates for channel distortion of the channel.

Methods and apparatus that enable one or more wireless networks to minimize inter-cellular interference (ICI) at a receiver. In one embodiment, the network comprises an OFDM-based cellular network, and the method comprises utilizing a priori knowledge of non-data portions of signals from multiple base stations in order to schedule transmissions. In one variant, these non-data portions comprise pilot tones; the pilot tones can be scheduled onto various time-frequency resources of the network so as to minimize ICI. The mobility context of the receiver can also be used as a basis for dynamically adjusting the pilot tone density. In another variant, precoding (e.g., Tomlinson-Harashima precoding) can be applied to shape the non-data portions of the transmitted signals so as to mitigate ICI. In yet other variants, frame preambles and learning sequences are used as the basis for invoking selective transmission time shifts across the potentially interfering base stations so as to minimize ICI.

A system and method for a high-speed transmitter comprising a precoder configured to receive a sequence of input symbols and to generate for each received symbol a respective recoded symbol is disclosed. The transmitter includes a recoding unit configured for recoding each current received PAM-M based on the recoded symbol immediately preceding the current recoded symbol at the recoding unit, a shift unit configured for determining a shift value for each current received symbol from the recoding unit based on the symbol received from the recoding unit and immediately preceding the current symbol at the shift unit; and Feed-Forward Equalizer unit for applying the shift values to the respective symbols received from the recoding unit to generate a corresponding sequence of output symbols to be transmitted in an output stream.

A method for signal transmission using precoded symbol information involves estimating a two-dimensional model of a communication channel in a delay-Doppler domain. A perturbation vector is determined in a delay-time domain wherein the delay-time domain is related to the delay-Doppler domain by an FFT operation. User symbols are modified based upon the perturbation vector so as to produce perturbed user symbols. A set of Tomlinson-Harashima precoders corresponding to a set of fixed times in the delay-time domain may then be determined using a delay-time model of the communication channel. Precoded user symbols are generated by applying the Tomlinson-Harashima precoders to the perturbed user symbols. A modulated signal is then generated based upon the precoded user symbols and provided for transmission over the communication channel.

A communication method, a communications apparatus, and a storage medium are disclosed, to reduce a probability that consecutive bit errors occur in a communications system. A received to-be-sent signal is modulated to obtain a modulated signal, and N rounds of operations are further performed on the modulated signal to obtain an encoded signal. An output of the 1.sup.st-round operation in the N rounds of operations is determined based on the modulated signal and an output that is of the N.sup.th-round operation and that is processed by a first delay circuit, and an output of the i.sup.th-round operation in the N rounds of operations is determined based on an output of the (i1).sup.th-round operation and an output that is of the N.sup.th-round operation and that is processed by a second delay circuit, where i is an integer greater than 1 and less than or equal to N.
