Radio channel aggregation and segmentation
Abstract:
Multiple streams from multiple circuit paths are Block-TDM (Block-Time-Division-Multiplexing) aggregated into a single stream that passes via a single path through processing circuitry capable of handling the aggregated signal. The cost of providing redundant processing circuitry is avoided. After processing in the single path, the resulting signal is Block-TDM de-aggregated to generate multiple streams. Each output stream is substantially the same as if its corresponding input stream had been processed in a separate path using separate processing circuitry. The path-sharing technique is usable to pass multiple streams from multiple radio receivers through one superior Delta-Sigma ADC (DSADC) as opposed to using multiple flat ADCs to process information from the multiple receivers. In one example, the DSADC can be used because the aggregation is Block-TDM-based and the de-aggregator involves a digital low pass filter. In another example, the de-aggregator involves a decoder and the aggregator involves a precoder.
