Method and system for controlling an interleaver
View Patent ↗Systems and Methods for controlling an interleaver are disclosed. Generally, a first and second signal are received, wherein the first and second signals are selected from the group consisting of a signal to noise ration signal, a data rate signal, and a bit error rate signal. An interleaver control signal is then generated based on the first and second signals.
1. A controller for an interleaver, comprising:
a processing system including a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
receiving a first signal;
receiving a second signal; and
generating an interleaver control signal based on the first and second signals,
wherein the first signal comprises a signal to noise ratio signal, and
wherein the second signal is selected from a group consisting of a data rate signal and a bit error rate signal, and
wherein the first and second signals are distinct signals.
2. The controller of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise determining whether the first signal exceeds a threshold.
3. The controller of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise determining whether the first signal exceeds a value.
4. The controller of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise determining whether the second signal exceeds a threshold.
5. The controller of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise determining whether the second signal exceeds a value.
6. The controller of claim 1 , further comprising an interleaver coupled with the processing system, the interleaver being operative to receive the control signal.
7. The controller of claim 6 , wherein the interleaver is operative to alter an interleaved signal in response to the interleaver control signal.
8. The controller of claim 6 , wherein the interleaver is operative to alter an interleave depth of an interleaved signal in response to the interleaver control signal.
9. A method for controlling an interleaver, the method comprising:
receiving, by a processing system comprising a processor, a first signal;
receiving, by the processing system, a second signal; and
generating, by the processing system, an interleaver control signal based on the first and second signals,
wherein the first signal comprises a signal to noise ratio signal, and
wherein the second signal is selected from a group consisting of a data rate signal and a bit error rate signal, and
wherein the first and second signals are distinct signals.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising determining whether the first signal exceeds a threshold.
11. The method of claim 9 , further comprising determining whether the first signal exceeds a value.
12. The method of claim 9 , further comprising determining whether the second signal exceeds a threshold.
13. The method of claim 9 , further comprising determining whether the second signal exceeds a value.
14. The method of claim 9 , further comprising transmitting the interleaver control signal to an interleaver.
15. A non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
receiving a first signal;
receiving a second signal; and
generating an interleaver control signal based on the first and second signals,
wherein the first signal comprises a signal to noise ratio signal,
wherein the second signal is selected from a group consisting of one of a data rate signal and a bit error rate signal, and
wherein the first and second signals are distinct signals.
16. The non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise determining whether the data rate signal exceeds a threshold.
17. The non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the interleaver control signal instructs an interleaver to not perform interleaving when the data rate signal exceeds the threshold.
18. The non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium of claim 16 , wherein the interleaver control signal ceases when the data rate signal exceeds the threshold.
19. The non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the interleaver control signal is proportional to the second signal.
20. The non-transitory, machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the interleaver control signal instructs an interleaver to perform interleaving proportional to the second signal.
