Abstract

Signal processing and/or signal modulation includes tracking a phase parameter; determining a discontinuity; and compensating for the discontinuity.

Claims (29)

1. A method for data processing, comprising:

tracking, by a processor in a data processing system, a phase parameter;

determining a discontinuity in operation of the data processing system based on a drop and/or a jump condition, and a trend condition indicating whether a phase value has been increasing or decreasing within a predetermined number of samples to produce a difference substantially larger than 2π between a current phase value and a preceding phase value; and

compensating for the discontinuity.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method utilizes an adaptive delta modulator.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the discontinuity is based on an a cyclic overflow event.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the phase parameter includes at least one Givens parameter.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein said compensating for the discontinuity includes subtracting or adding 2π from a recently quantized value.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein a flag signal indicates the discontinuity in a cyclic overflow mode.

7. The method according to claim 6 , an encoder performs said tracking, determining and compensating.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the data processing includes signal processing and/or modulating a signal.

9. A method for data processing comprising:

compensating for a discontinuity of a drop and/or a jump condition of a phase parameter received, based on a flag signal, and a trend condition indicating whether a phase value has been increasing or decreasing within a predetermined number of samples to produce a difference substantially larger than 2π between a current phase value and a preceding phase value.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the flag signal indicates a cyclic overflow mode.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein said compensating for the discontinuity includes subtracting or adding 2π from a recently quantized value.

12. The method according to claim 11 , a receiver performs said compensating.

13. A device for data processing, comprising:

a processor programmed to perform operations including tracking a phase parameter, determining a discontinuity in the phase parameter based on a drop and/or a jump condition, and a trend condition indicating whether a phase value has been increasing or decreasing within a predetermined number of samples to produce a difference substantially larger than 2π between a current phase value and a preceding phase value, and compensating for the discontinuity.

14. The device according to claim 13 , wherein the device is a communication device.

15. The device according to claim 13 , wherein the device is an encoder.

16. The device according to claim 13 , wherein the device is associated with an encoder.

17. The device according to claim 13 , wherein the device is a decoder.

18. The device according to claim 13 , wherein the device is associated with a decoder.

19. A communication system, comprising:

a device having a processor programmed to perform operations including tracking a phase parameter, determining a discontinuity in the phase parameter based on a drop and/or a jump condition, and a trend condition indicating whether a phase value has been increasing or decreasing within a predetermined number of samples to produce a difference substantially larger than 2π between a current phase value and a preceding phase value, and compensating for the discontinuity.

20. A device for data processing, comprising:

a processor programmed to perform operations including compensating for a discontinuity of a drop and/or a jump condition of a phase parameter received, based on a flag signal, and a trend condition indicating whether a phase value that has been increasing or decreasing within a predetermined number of samples to produce a difference substantially larger than 2π between a current phase value and a preceding phase value.

21. A communication system, comprising:

a device having a processor programmed to perform operations including compensating for a discontinuity of a drop and/or a jump condition of a phase parameter received, based on a flag signal, and a trend condition indicating whether a phase value has been increasing or decreasing within a predetermined number of samples to produce a difference substantially larger than 2π between a current phase value and a preceding phase value.
