Patent EP-1228568-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MASSIE ANGUS
IPC: H03M1/12
Filed: 2000-11-02
Abstract: The invention comprises an array of ADCs, associated either with spatially separated signal input devices such as for example antennae, or with a single signal input device and a plurality of filters having a variable phase delay, which provide a digital output which is processed to remove spurious signals introduced by the ADCs thereby providing a linearised output. In one embodiment an array of N antennae with respective band pass filters and ADCs (10) feeds received signals into a frequency channelisation device (12) which divides each of the N input streams into M lower bandwidth streams for distribution. In a first path, an FFT (14) is used to detect signals of interest, to determine where intermodulation products are likely to exist and to provide coarse data for the spatial processing used in the signal separation sub-systems. The second path (16) includes the detection of co-channels signals using algorithms such as Eigenvalue Decomposition. If these co-channel signals are spatially distinct they are separated using spatial processing algorithms such as, MUSIC and generalized side lobe cancellation and if they are spatially indistinct they are separated by Higher Order Statistical (HOS) processing algorithms such as Joint Approximate Diagonalization of Eigen-matrices (JADE). Signal classification techniques are then used to identify spurious signals, which are then removed. These processes linearise the output of the ADCs. The final stage in the process is the demodulation and decoding (18) of the signal of interest. Controlling the total system will be a control and recording system (20), that is typically accessed by a pool of users (22) each of whom are interested in a particular SOI at any one time. Clearly, the embodiment is related to a RF receiver arrangement, but its primary architecture is that of an array of ADCs, separated either spatially or with filters having a variable phase delay which in such a configuration can provide a higher dynamic range Analogue to Digital conversion than previously achievable.
