SAMPLING RATE SYNCHRONIZATION BETWEEN TRANSMITTERS AND RECEIVERS

摘要

Systems and methods are provided in which a wireless receiver can be configured to digitally synchronize a receive sampling rate to a transmit sampling rate, and may include a digital interpolator controlled by a timing control unit with a timing offset estimator. The timing control unit can be configured to calculate and output parameters to the digital interpolator. The digital interpolator can include a sample buffer followed by a fractional delay filter. Output parameters to the digital interpolator can include a fractional delay timing offset signal of the receiver relative to a transmitter timing signal and a buffer pointer control signal to control a position of the read pointer relative to a write pointer to compensate for subsample timing offset. The timing offset estimator can be configured to calculate and provide to the timing control unit a sampling period ratio control word and an instantaneous timing offset control word.
