DC OFFSET COMPENSATION AND BIT TIMING SYNCHRONIZATION USING CORRELATIONS WITH KNOWN BIT PATTERNS

摘要

An offset estimation and bit timing system and method configured to detect a DC offset in a received signal is disclosed herein. The inventive system includes a first circuit for receiving and correlating a transmitted signal and generating a trigger signal in response thereto. A second circuit accumulates the received signal and provides a second signal on receipt of the trigger signal. The second signal is then converted to an offset error signal. The error signal is converted to analog and used as a reference input for an A/D converter. As an alternative, the error signal may be used to adjust the signal output by an intermediate frequency downconversion stage.
