摘要:
In a blind spreading factor detecting receiver, the amplitude of a desired signal term is decoupled from the spreading factor hypothesis for that signal. Furthermore, the amplitude of the desired signal and the variance of an associated impairment term are estimated, and the estimates used to form a spreading factor hypothesis. Additionally, in one or more embodiments, a suboptimal detector does not rely on estimates of the amplitude of the desired signal or variance of the impairment term. Rather, the detector relics on scaled values that are partially despread using an initial spreading factor not greater than the smallest possible spreading factor used by the signal of interest, and combined using combining weights from a Rake or G-Rake processor, wherein the scaling factor is chosen to yield a unity ratio between the signal amplitude and noise variance after scaling.

A variable rate transmission method that can vary the transmission rate of data. A transmitting side supplies a transmitted data sequence to an error detecting encoder (105) and a frame memory (103). The frame memory (103) stores data of a variable length to be transmitted in one frame. The error detecting encoder (105) calculates an error detecting code (such as CRC code) for each frame of the transmitted data. A multiplexer (104) adds the calculated error detecting code ahead of the transmitted data to place it at the initial position of the frame, and sequentially outputs the data sequence frame by frame. A receiving side calculates an error detecting code of the data in each transmitted frame in the same manner as the transmitting side, and compares the calculated error detecting code with the error detecting code at the initial position of the frame. The end bit of the frame data is decided as a position at which the two error detecting codes coincide. This makes it possible to transmit variable length data without informing the receiving side of the data length in each frame. This is equivalent that the transmission rate can be varied freely.

A plurality of communication signals is received. Each communication signal has an associated code. At least two of the communication signals has a different spreading factor. The associated codes have a scrambling code period. A total system response matrix has blocks. Each block has one dimension of a length M and another dimension of a length based on in part M and the spreading factor of each communication. M is based on the scrambling code period. Data of the received plurality of communication signals is received using the constructed system response matrix.

A single, common correlation filter (CF) core is provided in a wireless system using CDMA (code division multiple access). A plurality of channels with different data rates are provided in the wireless system. The channels provided in the wireless system include the access channel, the maintenance channel, and the traffic channel in which information (e.g., pilot or data symbols or both) is transmitted at the tier 1 (which is the basic despreading rate), tier 2 and tier 3 rates. The data rate for transmitting the information is programmable by an external programmable processor, e.g., a digital signal processor (DSP). A user-unique code, such as a PN (pseudo-random noise) code, is applied to the information being transmitted in the channels of the wireless system. Theinformation is modulated and transmitted in any one of the channels at any data rate. The transmitted information is correlated at the basic despreading rate (i.e., the tier 1 rate) in the correlation filter (CF) of the wireless system by time multiplexing delayed versions of the PN code (or orthogonal code, Walsh code) to the correlation filter core. The correlated information is then demultiplexed and demodulated. The demodulated information is summed at the proper integer multiple of the tier 1 rate to achieve the tier 2 and tier 3 rates. One or more signal components are selected (in terms of the received power, signal-to-noise ratio or multipath width) in a window or time period for optimal information recovery. The selecting step can also be implemented according to a preprogrammed time alignment. Furthermore, outputs from the demodulated information can be provided and combined for temporal diversity. Spatial diversity is achieved by providing a plurality of antennas, and a plurality of receivers at a location and providing a single, common correlation filter at each of the plurality of antennas of the receivers in the wireless system.

Processing of a received code division multiple access, CDMA, burst (405) when a spreading factor of the CDMA burst (405) has been changed from an allocated spreading factor (SFo) to a new spreading factor (SFn). The received burst (405) is processed with a CDMA detector (310), using the allocated spreading factor (SFo), to provide a CDMA detector output; the new spreading factor (SFn) of the burst is determined; and the CDMA detector output is decimated by a factor determined from the new spreading factor (SFn). The decimator may be a FIR decimator (315) and tap weights may be determined using the values of the new spreading factor (SFn) and the allocated spreading factor (SFo). Application in a Node B (150A) of a UMTS system (100), particularly in UTRA TDD mode, for processing received uplink communication is described.

摘要:
In mobile telecommunications systems, such as UMTS, user communications can be transmitted in parallel within a single timeslot by spreading the different user communications amongst a plurality of orthogonal spreading codes. Each spreading code has a characteristic spreading factor. The communications transmitted in each timeslot are joint detected and de-spread into the original user communications by a joint detection algorithm. There is provided a method of post-processing the results of the joint detection algorithm when the spreading factors are unknown. The method of post-processing operates without the need to apply the joint detection algorithm more than once. Consequently, spreading codes with different spreading factors can be used in one timeslot.
