摘要:
A power level of signals transmitted in a wireless communications system under a first or a second scrambling code, is controlled in an inner power control loop, where a quality measure (51) is repetitively estimated and control commands generated from the quality measure (51) and a quality measure reference value (56), which in an outer power control loop is adjusted in dependence on a performance level (52) calculated for signals received during a time interval. A first value (54) is adjusted in dependence on a performance level (52) for time intervals with all signals transmitted under the first scrambling code and used during such time intervals. A second value (55) is adjusted in dependence on a performance level (52) for time intervals with at least some signals transmitted under the second scrambling code and used during at least a part of such time intervals.
摘要:
Coded digital data symbols sent through a transmission channel of a communications network are received in a receiver. Estimates (y) represented by a first number (a+b) of bits are calculated, and modified estimates (y') represented by a second number (c) of bits provided therefrom, the second number being lower than the first number. An amplitude value is calculated for each estimate (y), and an averaged amplitude value calculated for a number of amplitude values. A scaling factor (s) is calculated from the averaged amplitude value, and scaled estimates generated in dependence of the scaling factor. The scaling factor is used for a number of scaled estimates corresponding to the number of amplitude values for which the averaged amplitude value was calculated. Thus a better scaling factor is provided for most channel cases, which can still be calculated with the limited computational resources of a terminal for such networks.
摘要:
A method of determining a channel estimate of a first transmission channel in a communications system. The method comprises deriving a first set of channel estimates from symbols received through said first transmission channel; deriving a second set of channel estimates from symbols received through a second transmission channel in the communications system; determining a scale factor between the first and second sets of channel estimates from a least squares error criterion; and determining the channel estimate of the first transmission channel as a channel estimate of the second transmission channel scaled by the determined scale factor.
