20090304128 | Packet Detection Apparatus and Method, Wireless Communication Apparatus and Method, and Computer Program - A packet detection apparatus detects a packet from a received signal by using a preamble containing an established, repeating training sequence. A first autocorrelation calculator computes a first autocorrelation of the received signal over a first interval. A first determining unit determines packet discovery by comparing the first autocorrelation to a first autocorrelation threshold value. A second autocorrelation calculator computes a second autocorrelation of the received signal over a second interval equivalent to the interval length for packet discovery announcement. A second determining unit determines packet discovery announcement by comparing the second autocorrelation to a second autocorrelation threshold value lower than the first autocorrelation threshold value. | 12-10-2009 |
