Kalman filter based phase-locked loop with re-encoding based phase detector

Abstract

A wireless communications device includes a receiver having a phase detector configured to extract frequency offset and provide a corresponding error signal generated based on a baseband version of a received radio frequency signal and an expected transmitted data signal. The receiver has a phase-locked loop configured to generate an error correction signal based on a phase of the error signal and a predicted instantaneous phase of the error signal. The receiver has a correction circuit configured to provide a corrected baseband version of the received radio frequency signal based on the baseband version of the received radio frequency signal and the error correction signal. The receiver may have a re-encoding-based processing circuit configured to provide the expected transmitted data signal based on a preliminarily decoded symbol.
