Description
INTERFERENCE MITIGATION BY A SCALABLE DIGITAL WIRELESS MODEM
BACKGROUND
[0001] Wireless communication systems may use one or more channels to transfer data between a transmitter and receivers. These communication systems may operate according to a set of standards defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 committee for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) communication.
[0002] During the transfer of data between the transmitter and receivers, multipath problems and other conditions such as presence of harmonic spurs may affect transmission and reception of data packets. The harmonic spurs or other interference may be generated by co-running modems within the same portable device. The presence of the harmonic spurs or the interference that may mix with the receiving of the data packets, for example, may cause problems with signal detecting, amplifier gain adjustment, and signal decoding among others.
[0003] As such, there is a need to mitigate presence of interference between co-running modems especially for a wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) modem which is usually treated as an aggressor component with respect to collocated and co- running downlink cellular receiver such as long term evolution (LTE) modem.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0004] FIG. 1 illustrates an example scenario that implements dynamic adjustment of an out-of-band emission in a Wi-Fi modem to mitigate resulting interference to a signal of another co-running modem within the same portable device.
[0005] FIG. 2 is an example block diagram showing components of a transceiver circuitry in a portable device.
[0006] FIG. 3 illustrates an exemplary process for implementing dynamic adjustment of an out-of-band emission in a Wi-Fi modem to minimize interference on a collocated or co-running downlink reception of another modem.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0007] Described herein is a technology for implementing a method for dynamic adjustment of an out-of-band emission, including spurious emissions, in a wireless modem, such as a Wi-Fi modem, to minimize interference with a collocated and/or co-running downlink reception of another modem. For example, the co-running downlink reception of another modem includes cellular reception, Blue Tooth (BT) reception, and the like, within the same portable device.
[0008] As described in certain examples herein, the wireless modem is implemented as a digital Wi-Fi modem with a programmable chain of components that may be dynamically adjusted to control an out-of-band
emission the Wi-Fi modem. For example, when a co-running or collocated downlink cellular reception of an Long Term Evolution (LTE) modem is active, then the Wi-Fi modem may adjust number of parallel hardware streams that are used within the programmable chain of components of the Wi-Fi modem. Similarly, when the LTE modem is not active, then the Wi-Fi modem may limit the number of parallel hardware streams to process input data streams for transmission. The limited number of active parallel hardware streams within the programmable chain of components may conserve power in the portable device. Furthermore, in these examples, the Wi-Fi modem may minimize generation of interference to LTE signals of the co-running downlink cellular reception. The Wi-Fi modem and the LTE modem, in these examples, are collocated within the same device.
[0009] In an implementation, a detector (in certain implementations, using pre-engineering configurations, the detector may not be implemented) is further coupled to the Wi-Fi modem (or victim modem) in order to detect and compare amount of Wi-Fi modem generated - interference with a threshold. For example, the out-of-band emission, including spurious emissions, of the Wi-Fi modem is high enough to generate interference on the LTE signal of the co- running downlink cellular reception. In this example, the threshold includes a pre-configured amount that is utilized as a reference for controlling the out-of- band emission, including spurious emission, of the Wi-Fi modem.
[0010] FIG. 1 is an example scenario 100 that utilizes a dynamic adjustment of out-of-band emission in a Wi-Fi modem to mitigate resulting
interference to a signal of another co-running modem within the same portable device. The scenario 100 shows a portable device 102 with an antenna 104, and another portable device 106 with an antenna 106.
[0011] The portable devices 102 or 106 may include, but is not limited to, a tablet computer, a netbook, a notebook computer, a laptop computer, mobile phone, a cellular phone, a smartphone, a personal digital assistant, a multimedia playback device, a digital music player, a digital video player, a navigational device, a digital camera, and the like.
[0012] The portable device 102, for example, may communicate with the other portable device 106 in a network environment. The network environment, for example, includes a cellular network configured to facilitate communications between the portable device 102 and the other portable device 106. During this cellular network communications, cellular downlink reception, for example, of the portable device 102 may be affected or may receive interference from co-running and collocated Wi-Fi communication features. Thus, the implementations described herein may facilitate the interference or harmonic spurs mitigation, for example, of interfering Wi-Fi signals to the cellular downlink reception or any downlink reception within the portable device 102. Furthermore, the implementations described herein conserves power consumption in the portable device by dynamically adjusting Wi-Fi modem out-of-band emission, including spurious emissions, depending upon whether the co-running modem is active or inactive.
[0013] FIG. 2 is an example schematic block diagram 200 showing components of a transceiver circuitry in a portable device 200. As shown, the example block diagram 200 include a Wi-Fi modem 202, a detector 204, and basic component of a polar digital transmitter such as oscillator 206, digital phase locked loop (DPLL) 208, a phase modulator 210, digital power amplifier (PA) 212, and a band pass filter 214. The Wi-Fi modem further includes an IFFT 216, a regular interpolation chain 218, a configurable interpolation chain 220, a frequency soft limiter 222, CORDIC 224, frequency hard limiter 226, fractional sampling rate converter (FSRC) 228, and a parallel to serial converter (P2S) 230. Furthermore still, the Wi-Fi modem 202 includes a programmable chain component 232 that indicates the components that may be digitally adjusted to control out-of-band emission, including spurious emissions, of the Wi-Fi modem as described herein. The programmable components include the configurable interpolation chain 220, frequency soft hmiter 222, CORDICs 224, frequency hard limiter 226, and the FSRC 228. It is also to be understood that the block diagram 200 may include or coupled to one or more processors and one or more memory components.
[0014] As a general overview of the implementations described herein, transmission of data packets from the Wi-Fi modem 202 may generate interference to collocated and/or co-running downlink reception in an LTE modem, BT modem, and the like, within the portable device 102. The generated interference may be detected and measured by the detector 204, and the measured interference is utilized by the Wi-Fi modem 202 to adjust its out-
of-band emission. For example, the Wi-Fi modem 202 is configured to adjust components within the programmable chain component 232 in order to dynamically adjust out-of-band emission, including spurious emissions, during the transmission of data packet. In this example, the dynamic adjustment may depend upon whether the co-running LTE modem, BT modem, etc. is active or inactive during the transmission of data packet by the Wi-Fi modem 202. In case of active LTE modem, for example, the Wi-Fi modem 202 may be switched to have a high power consumption mode. On the other hand, in case of inactive LTE modem, the Wi-Fi modem 202 may be dynamically switched to have a low power consumption mode.
[0015] In an implementation, a serial symbol stream of quadrature modulated data such as phase shift keying (PSK) or quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) data is converted, for example, into M parallel streams. These M streams are then modulated onto M subcarriers via the use of size N (M<=N) IFFT 216. The N modulated outputs of the IFFT 216 are then processed through the regular interpolation chain 218 and the configurable interpolation chain 220, which perform corresponding order of interpolation to achieve, for example, desired up-sampling rates (e.g., 320MSa/s). The N modulated outputs of the IFFT 216 may include input signals (i.e., serial symbol stream) that were converted from frequency domain to time domain input signals.
[0016] With the interpolated signal from the output of the configurable interpolation chain 220, the frequency soft limiter 222 is configured to limit
frequency deviation of the interpolated signal. The streaming of the soft limited interpolated signal are then controlled by the CORDIC 224 depending upon an amount of interference as detected and measured by the detector 204.
[0017] For example, the detector 204 detects an active LTE modem that is receiving LTE signals during transmission of data packets by the Wi-Fi modem 202. In this example, the CORDIC 224 is configured to activate its eight parallel hardware streams within the programmable chain component 232. The eight parallel hardware streams may utilize the CORDICs 224-2 to 224-16, respectively. It is to be understood that a CORDIC is described; however, similar components/computers may be implemented.
[0018] In another example, the detector 204 detects an inactive LTE modem (i.e., OFF) during transmission of data packets by the Wi-Fi modem 202. In this example, the CORDIC 224 is configured to activate its two parallel hardware streams within the programmable chain component 232. The two parallel hardware streams may utilize the CORDICs 224-2 to 224-4, respectively. Controlling the number of hardware streams may a tradeoff of hardware consumption versus out-of-band emission.
[0019] With continuing reference to Fig. 2, the frequency hard limiter 226 is configured to perform hard limiting or clipping of the output of the CORDICs 224. For example, the output of the CORDICs 224 may be strictly limited to a certain amount prior to processing by the FSRC 228. In this example, the FSRC 228 is configured to sample the hard limited output signal of the CORDICs 224 to a desired sampling rate or to another different sampling
rate. That is, the hard limited output signal of the CORDICs 224 may have different sampling rates and as such, the FSRC 228 may implement a new sampling rate to interconnect the hard limited output signals with different sampling rates.
[0020] After sampling of the FSRC 228 to interconnect the hard limited output signals with different sampling rates, the P2S 230 may convert parallel data streams from the FSRC 228 to serial data streams 234. As shown, the serial data streams 234 may be utilized to amplitude modulate a phase modulated signal at the digital PA 214.
[0021] The phase modulated signal, which is received by the digital PA 214 from the phase modulator 210, may be dictated by control signals 236 from the P2S 230. That is the control signals 236 may include control words that dictates phase changes in a carrier signal at the phase modulator 210. For example, the carrier signal, are facilitated by the oscillator 206 and the DPLL 208.
[0022] With quadrature modulated signal from an output of the digital PA 212, the BPF 214 may attenuate unwanted replicas prior to transmission at the antenna 104.
[0023] Although the example block diagram 200 illustrates in a limited manner basic components of the transceiver of the portable device, other components such as battery, one or more processors, SIM card, etc. were not described in order to simplify the embodiments described herein.
[0024] FIG. 3 shows an example process flowchart 300 illustrating an example method for dynamic adjustment of an out-of-band emission, including spurious emissions, in a Wi-Fi modem to minimize interference on a collocated or co-running downlink reception of another modem. For example, the downlink reception of the other modem includes cellular reception, BT reception, and the like, within the same portable device. The order in which the method is described is not intended to be construed as a limitation, and any number of the described method blocks may be combined in any order to implement the method, or alternate method. Additionally, individual blocks may be deleted from the method without departing from the spirit and scope of the subject matter described herein. Furthermore, the method may be implemented in any suitable hardware, software, firmware, or a combination thereof, without departing from the scope of the invention.
[0025] At block 302, transmitting Wi-Fi data packets by a Wi-Fi modem during a downlink reception of another modem is performed. For example, the Wi-Fi modem 202 is transmitting Wi-Fi data packets during downlink cellular reception operation by the LTE modem. In this example, the Wi-Fi modem 204 may be operating a high out-of-band emission level that may interfere with LTE signals of co-running downlink cellular reception.
[0026] At block 304, detecting and comparing amount of Wi-Fi modem generated - interference with a threshold is performed. For example, the detector 204 is configured to detect and measure amount of interference that may be generated by the Wi-Fi modem 202 to the co-running downlink cellular
reception. In this example, the measured amount of interference is compared to the pre-configured threshold that is utilized as a reference for controlling out- of-band emission level in the Wi-Fi modem 202. Particularly, the out-of-band emission level is controlled through an adjustment of components within the programmable chain component 232.
[0027] At block 306, adjusting out-of-band emission of the Wi-Fi modem based upon the detected amount of Wi-Fi modem generated interference is performed. For example, when the amount of Wi-Fi modem generated interference exceeds the threshold, the Wi-Fi modem 202 may lower its out-of- band emission level to minimize interference to the co-running downlink cellular reception.
[0028] In another implementation, the Wi-Fi modem 202 may be co- running with the BT modem of the same portable device, and to this end, similar implementations as described above for the co-running 2G, LTE, 4G, and the like, may be applied. That is, the detector 204 implements an algorithm that measures and determines the unwanted harmonic frequencies due to the transmitting operations of the Wi-Fi modem 202. The determined unwanted harmonic frequencies are compared to the threshold and the Wi-Fi modem 202 is adjusted accordingly to minimize the interference.
