Method and apparatus for high speed eye diagram simulation
Embodiments are disclosed for computing an eye diagram based on input pulse responses. An example method includes receiving a set of input pulse responses in one or more unit interval (UI) spaced samples. The set of input pulse responses is generated based on measuring a signal histogram of a receiver of a pulse amplitude modulation analog signal. The method further includes receiving a set of voltage range constraints and generating a matrix based at least in part on an element-wise trigonometric-based operation performed on one or more products of each element of the set of input pulse responses and the set of voltage range constraints. The method further includes generating an eye diagram probability density function based on the matrix and computing an eye diagram based on the eye diagram probability density function, the voltage range constraints, and time data associated with the one or more unit interval spaced samples.
Secure long training field (LTF) transmit window signaling
This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for improving the security of secure long training field (LTF) transmissions. In some implementations, a transmitting device may perform windowing on a secure LTF, in the frequency domain, so that the resulting time-domain LTF signal is difficult, if not impossible, to predict by any device that observes a portion of the LTF signal. In some aspects, the transmitting device may negotiate the windowing of secure LTFs with a receiving device based on fine timing measurement (FTM) negotiation frames exchanged at the start of an FTM procedure. In some other aspects, the transmitting device may dynamically or adaptively perform windowing on secure LTFs. In such aspects, the transmitting device may indicate whether windowing is performed on a secure LTF based on information carried in a signal field of a physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) that includes the secure LTF.
