A method is provided for receiving a data frame in an ultrawide bandwidth network. In this method, a device receives an ultrawide bandwidth signal containing a data frame. The device then performs an acquisition operation during a first preamble in the data frame, and identifies a marker after the first preamble that indicates that the first preamble has ended. After this, the device performs a signal processing operation during a second preamble in the data frame. After the training, the device then receives a header in the data frame, and then receives a payload in the data frame. By having a marker between the two preambles, this method provides a receiving device with critical information regarding the timing of the preamble section of a frame.

International Classification:
H04B001/69
US Classification:
375/130000
Abstract:
A system and method is provided for controlling the mode of operation in a UWB receiver. In one variation, the system and method determines the mode of operation by reading a set number of samples of the signal, estimating mode parameters, calculating a mode probability, and then transitioning in a finite state machine between a track and an acquisition state depending on the value of the mode probability. Exemplary versions of the mode controller include a signal to noise ratio calculator, a signal and noise power estimator, and an AGC initialization circuit.
System And Method For Selecting A Strongest Signal Across Clock Domains In An Ultra Wideband Receiver
A system and method for determining a strongest of a radio signal received on at least two signal paths in an Ultra Wideband (UWB) receiver includes determining a signal metric associated with the radio signal in a first signal path and a second signal path and establishing a candidate for the strongest of the radio signal based on which one of the signal metrics in the first and second signal paths crosses a threshold and based on a rule set. The signal paths are associated with independent clock domains which are synchronized, and the signal metrics are available to the respective signal paths and clock domains. Determining on a non-chosen signal path continues and the threshold is updated. A new candidate is established as the strongest if the signal metric associated with the non-chosen signal path crosses the updated threshold.

International Classification:
H04B 1/69
US Classification:
375130000
Abstract:
A system () and method () are presented for mitigating a transient in processing a received signal () in a signal path associated with an Ultra Wideband (UWB) receiver. An impending processing event associated with processing the received signal is detected. A processing element () capable of generating a transient when activated, is activated prior to the processing event such that the transient is mitigated or cleared when the processing event occurs and the received signal is processed. At least a portion of the processing element is normally deactivated so as to conserve power. The processing event includes one or more of: an acquisition processing event, a lock processing event, and a tracking processing event associated with the received signal in the signal path.
Systems And Methods For Determining If A Receiver Is Inside Or Outside A Building Or Area
Determining if a receiver is inside or outside a building or area. Particular systems and methods for determining if a receiver is inside or outside a building determine an estimate of a position of a receiver, and use the estimate of the position of the receiver and other data to determine if the position of the receiver is inside a first building. The other data may include locations of geo-fences inside buildings, heights of buildings, or other types of data.

International Classification:
H04L 29/08 H04L 12/24 H04L 29/06
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for transmitting data to networked resources based on extracted contextual information from said networked resources. The system gathers contextual data from devices on the network, extracts contextual information from the contextual data, and determines supplemental resources to provide to the networked devices based on the contextual information. The system may further provide an augmented reality environment to a networked device that integrates identifies objects in an image and integrates notifications of supplemental resources in the augmented reality environment.
System For Linking Alternate Resources To Resource Pools And Allocating Linked Alternative Resources To A Resource Interaction

International Classification:
G06F 9/50
Abstract:
A system for digitally linking alternate resources to resource pools and allocating linked alternate resources to resource interactions. In specific embodiments, in response to allocating the alternate resource to the resource interaction, resources are re-allocated to the resource pool from which the resource interaction was initiated.

International Classification:
H04L 12/911 G06F 3/048 G06F 9/50
Abstract:
Proactive acquisition of supplemental resources for interactions based on anticipated needs improves computer processing efficiency and storage requirements, as well as allowing for improved interactions over the Internet. More particularly, desired interactions of a user, previous interactions of the user, changes in available interactions for the user, and supplemental resources for which the user qualifies are used in combination to felicitate the improved interactions for the user, and which also results in the improved computer processing efficiency and storage of the interactions.
