Auto-detection of repeated signals
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a signal comprising a first portion and a second portion, the first portion comprising a first received symbol and a second received symbol;
detecting whether the first received symbol is repeated as the second received symbol using a maximum a posterior decision metric comprising a first component and a second component, wherein the first component contributes to the decision metric in accordance with the first received symbol being repeated as the second received symbol, and the second component contributes to the decision metric in accordance with the first received symbol not being repeated as the second received symbol;
determining a format based on whether or not the first received symbol was repeated; and
processing the second portion of the signal in accordance with the format, as determined.

Abstract
Systems and techniques relating to repeated signal detection are described. A described technique includes receiving a signal including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion including a first received symbol and a second received symbol; detecting whether the first received symbol is repeated as the second received symbol using a maximum a posterior decision metric including a first component and a second component, the first component contributing to the decision metric in accordance with the first received symbol being repeated as the second received symbol, and the second component contributing to the decision metric in accordance with the first received symbol not being repeated as the second received symbol; determining a format based on whether or not the first received symbol was repeated; and processing the second portion of the signal in accordance with the format, as determined.

8. A device comprising:
-
a receiver configured to receive a signal comprising a first portion and a second portion, the first portion comprising a first received symbol and a second received symbol; and a processor coupled with the receiver, wherein the processor is configured to determine whether the first received symbol is repeated as the second received symbol using a maximum a posterior decision metric comprising a first component and a second component, wherein the first component contributes to the decision metric in accordance with the first received symbol being repeated as the second received symbol, and the second component contributes to the decision metric in accordance with the first received symbol not being repeated as the second received symbol, wherein the processor is configured to determine a format based on whether or not the first received symbol was repeated and process the second portion of the signal in accordance with the format, as determined. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A system comprising:
-
circuitry to receive a signal comprising a first portion and a second portion, the first portion comprising a first received symbol and a second received symbol; a detector that is configured to determine whether the first received symbol is repeated as the second received symbol using a maximum a posterior decision metric comprising a first component and a second component, wherein the first component contributes to the decision metric in accordance with the first received symbol being repeated as the second received symbol, and the second component contributes to the decision metric in accordance with the first received symbol not being repeated as the second received symbol; and a decoder that is configured to process the second portion of the signal in accordance with a format determined based on whether or not the first received symbol was repeated. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
