Iterative two dimensional equalization of orthogonal time frequency space modulated signals
An iterative two dimension equalizer usable in a receiver of orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulated signals is described. In one configuration of the equalizer, a forward path generates, from received time-frequency domain samples and a channel estimate, estimates of data bits and likelihood numbers associated with the estimates of data bits, generated by delay-Doppler domain processing. In the feedback direction, the estimates of data bits are used to generate symbol estimates and autocorrelation matrix estimate in the time domain. In another configuration, a soft symbol mapper is used in the feedback direction for directly generating the feedback input symbol estimate without having to generate estimates of data bits.
Signal processing system and method, and apparatus
A signal processing system and method, and an apparatus are provided. A phase recovery apparatus may be used to: receive a feedback signal fed back by an information iteration apparatus, perform, based on the feedback signal, phase recovery on a signal output by an equalizer, and output a phase-recovered signal to a post filtering apparatus, so that the post filtering apparatus performs noise filtering on the phase-recovered signal, and outputs a noise-filtered signal to the information iteration apparatus. To be specific, the phase recovery may be performed, based on the signal fed back by the information iteration apparatus, on the signal output by the equalizer. Because output of the information iteration apparatus is more accurate in determining the signal, precision of the phase recovery can be improved, cycle skipping is reduced, and input signal quality of the post filtering apparatus is improved.
Distortion cancellation
The present disclosure provides for distortion cancelled by receiving a collided signal, the collided signal comprising a first signal carrying a first packet and a second signal carrying a second packet; amplifying and digitizing the collided signal into a first digital signal at a first gain and a second digital signal at a second gain that is greater than the first gain; determining a nonlinear interference component of the first packet on the second packet from the first digital signal; decoding the first packet from the first digital signal; re-encoding the first packet with a first estimated channel effect into an estimated signal; calculating a linear interference component of the first packet on the second packet from the estimated signal; removing the linear interference component and the nonlinear interference component from the second digital signal to produce a de-interfered signal; and decoding the second packet from the de-interfered signal.
