An orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication system includes a first interface having a first cable coupler to couple to a first end of a coaxial cable, and a first plurality of signal pathways coupled to the first cable coupler. Each signal pathway of the first plurality includes a physical (PHY) layer component and a radio frequency (RF) front end coupled to the PHY layer component. The system further includes a second interface having a second cable coupler to couple to a second end of a coaxial cable, and a second plurality of signal pathways coupled to the second cable coupler. Each signal pathway of the second plurality corresponds to a signal pathway of the first plurality and includes a PHY layer component and an RF front end coupled to the PHY layer component.

Bonded OFDM communication system

A method of operating a communications system includes generating a channel impulse response estimate based on a first received signal. The method includes selecting a precursor and a cyclic prefix length for a second received signal based on the channel impulse response estimate, a target cyclic prefix energy level, and a predetermined range of cyclic prefix lengths.

Cyclic prefix and precursor joint estimation

A coarse timing acquisition technique includes generating a sequence detection indicator. The sequence detection indicator indicates detection of a sequence of repeated symbols in a received signal. The sequence detection indicator is based on a first energy threshold and a normalized moving sum of an autocorrelation signal. The autocorrelation signal is based on the received signal.
