A method of cancelling alien noise in coordinated DSL lines, a method of smoothing an alien noise covariance estimate, and a processor and modem for cancelling alien noise in coordinated DSL lines. In one embodiment, the method of cancelling alien noise includes: (1) estimating alien noise vectors for at least some training symbols, (2) arranging the alien noise vectors in a matrix dimensioned for a number of coordinated DSL lines, (3) orthonormally transforming the matrix into a lower-triangular matrix and (4) computing alien noise prediction filters from the lower-triangular matrix.

Processor, modem and method for cancelling alien noise in coordinated digital subscriber lines

A timekeeping device that tracks the time provided by a digital broadcast and the protocol of that broadcast, defined by its data frame structure and modulation scheme, are adapted to allow for superior performance of the timekeeping devices in terms of range of operation, immunity to interference, ability to operate with lower cost antennas due to enhanced link robustness, and reduced energy consumption. The timekeeping device operates with infrequent receptions of the broadcast by relying on independent self-compensation. This alleviates the need for frequent receptions to ensure timing accuracy while reducing energy consumption. The mean and variability of successive measurements of timing drift are evaluated and an estimated upper bound for the drift-estimation error is set. Based on this bound, the device employs a reception strategy that relies on less frequent receptions, corresponding to the error in estimating the drift rather than to the magnitude of the drift itself.

Various embodiments of a method of mitigating interference in an OFDMA cellular network and a user terminal incorporating various of the embodiments. In one embodiment, the method includes: (1) selecting at least one dominant interfering signal, (2) generating estimates of a desired signal and the at least one dominant interfering signal, (3) jointly deciding based on the estimates such that an energy of a residual error is reduced and (4) mitigating interference based on the estimates.
