A portable data storage device is provided having a non-volatile memory and a wireless data interface. The wireless data interface is coupled to the non-volatile memory to read data from the non-volatile memory for transmission through the wireless data interface and/or write data received from the wireless data interface to the non-volatile memory. The wireless data interface is a high data rate interface and/or a broadband interface. Data rates may be above 100 Mbps, and bandwidths may be 100 MHz or above. There is further provided a corresponding data storage method.

An error correction technique for data communication receivers such as WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) receivers is provided. The error correction technique is for correcting a frequency and/or phase error in an incoming digitally modulated signal. A constellation manipulator is provided that is adapted to manipulate the phase constellation system of the incoming digitally modulated system by mapping each constellation point of the phase constellation system to a predefined range of phase angles. The predefined range has a width of less than 2&#x3c0;. Further, an error detector is provided that is connected to receive data from the constellation manipulator. The data pertains to the manipulated phase constellation system. The error detector is adapted to evaluate the data to detect the frequency and/or phase error.
