A synchronisation symbol detector that comprises two correlation modules and a comparison module. The first correlation module performs one or more correlations between the input signal and a down-converted version of the input signal and generates a first correlation metric from the one or more first correlations. The second correlation module performs one or more second correlations between the input signal and an up-converted version of the input signal and generates a second correlation metric from the one or more second correlations. The comparison module is configured to compare the first correlation metric and the second correlation metric and determine whether the input signal comprises a synchronisation symbol based on the comparison.

A packet detecting method includes receiving the wireless signal, generating a local characteristic sequence, acquiring a first cross-correlation result between the wireless signal and the local characteristic sequence, determining if a packet format of the wireless signal is a target packet format according to the first correlation result, generating at least one interference characteristic sequence according to the local characteristic sequence, a signal sampling frequency, and at least one working frequency difference, acquiring a second cross-correlation result between the wireless signal and the at least one interference characteristic sequence, and detecting a center frequency of the wireless signal for determining if a packet of the wireless signal is transmitted through a target channel according to the first correlation result and the second correlation result. The at least one interference characteristic sequence corresponds to at least one interference frequency.

Systems and methods for a non-data-aided (NDA) approach to advanced OFDM timing are provided. This approach allows for accurate OFDM symbol timing and synchronization by avoiding inter-symbol interference (ISI) in multipath environments where an earliest arriving signal may not be the strongest signal. The NDA approach may rely on generating and applying a bias correction to a combined correlation result of the multi-path signals.

The present disclosure provides techniques for bandwidth constrained communication systems with frequency domain information processing. A bandwidth constrained equalized transport (BCET) communication system can include a transmitter, a communication channel, and a receiver. The transmitter can include a pulse-shaping filter that intentionally introduces memory into a signal in the form of inter-symbol interference, an error control code (ECC) encoder, a multidimensional fast Fourier transform (FFT) processing block that processes the signal in the frequency domain, and a first interleaver. The receiver can include an information-retrieving equalizer, a deinterleaver with an ECC decoder, and a second interleaver joined in an iterative ECC decoding loop. The communication system can be bandwidth constrained, and the signal can comprise an information rate that is higher than that of a communication system without intentional introduction of the memory at the transmitter.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described to enable base station and a user equipment (UE) to mitigate interference when using full-duplex communications. For example, a base station communicating with a UE via full-duplex communications may indicate for the UE to align the time of its uplink transmissions with the time the UE receives downlink transmissions. Additionally or alternatively, the base station may indicate a timing alignment window for the UE, where the window may consist of an allowed time period the UE may use to select a time to begin uplink transmissions. In some examples, the base station may select a cyclic prefix for full-duplex communications, where the cyclic prefix may be longer than a cyclic prefix used for other communications. Further, the base station may select uplink frequency and downlink frequency bands separated by a defined guard band for full-duplex communications.

A detection method for a MIMO system receiver in which a linear detection is carried out in order to provide an equalised vector. This equalised vector is represented in a reduced basis obtained from the reduction of the channel matrix. It undergoes an iterative noise cancellation process in the representation according to the reduced basis. Upon each iteration, a search is carried out for the component of the equalised vector in the reduced basis located the furthest from an area unperturbed by noise surrounding the product constellation with a tolerance margin, and the point representative of the equalised vector of this area by subtracting therefrom a noise vector in the direction of this component, the module whereof is equal to a fraction of the tolerance margin. The iterative cancellation converges when the equalised vector belongs to the area unperturbed by noise.

A method for a wireless transmitter is disclosed. The method comprises transmitting a wake-up signal over a frequency range during a time interval by transmitting a first signal part over a first frequency interval within the frequency range during the time interval and transmitting a second signal part over a second frequency interval within the frequency range during the time interval. The first and second frequency intervals are non-overlapping. The first signal part has a first auto-correlation value, and the second signal part is specifically constructed to provide a second autocorrelation value of the signal comprising the first and second signal parts which is lower than the first auto-correlation value. The invention to solve the problem of false detection of an MC-OOK modulated wake-up signal in an IEEE 802.11 system using OFDM.
