    摘要: A receiver includes a baseband processor for selecting a set of demodulation processing delays for received signal demodulation from a larger set of candidate delays. In one embodiment, the baseband processor selects the set of demodulation processing delays by calculating at least one metric for each demodulation processing delay in the set of candidate delays, iteratively reducing the set of candidate delays by eliminating one or more demodulation processing delays from the set as a function of comparing the metrics, and setting the processing delays for received signal demodulation to the candidate delays remaining after reduction. In a Generalized RAKE (G-RAKE) embodiment, the metric corresponds to combining weight magnitudes associated with G-RAKE finger delays. In a chip equalizer embodiment, the metric corresponds to coefficient magnitudes associated with equalization filter tap delays. In other embodiments, the metric corresponds to Signal to Interference Ratios (SIRs) associated with the set of candidate delays.

    摘要: A serial-parallel converter/encoder unit 11 inputs a transmission symbol data at a transmission symbol rate that is one-Nth of a base-point symbol rate. A precoder/collator 13 creates a transmission symbol waveform at the base-point symbol rate. The transmission symbol waveform becomes a transmission signal after passing through a roll-off filter 14 with a band corresponding to the base-point symbol rate and a modulator 15. A reception signal demodulated by a demodulator 33 is input to a fractionally-spaced equalizer 38 that operates at the base-point symbol rate and is forcibly equalized at the transmission symbol rate by using a reference signal. A level of a signal output from the fractionally-spaced equalizer 38 at the transmission symbol rate is determined by a level determining unit 39 and becomes a reception symbol data by a sawtooth-function output unit 40.

    摘要: Techniques for performing equalization at a receiver are described. In an aspect, equalization is performed by sub-sampling an over-sampled input signal to obtain multiple sub-sampled signals. An over-sampled channel impulse response estimate is derived and sub-sampled to obtain multiple sub-sampled channel impulse response estimates. At least one set of equalizer coefficients is derived based on at least one sub-sampled channel impulse response estimate. At least one sub-sampled signal is filtered with the at least one set of equalizer coefficients to obtain at least one output signal. One sub-sampled signal (e.g., with largest energy) may be selected and equalized based on a set of equalizer coefficients derived from an associated sub-sampled channel impulse response estimate. Alternatively, the multiple sub-sampled signals may be equalized based on multiple sets of equalizer coefficients, which may be derived separately or jointly. The equalizer coefficients may be derived in the time domain or frequency domain.

    摘要: This disclosure describes equalization techniques for spread spectrum wireless communication. The techniques may involve estimating a channel impulse response, estimating channel variance, and selecting filter coefficients for an equalizer based on the estimated channel impulse response and the estimated channel variance. Moreover, in accordance with this disclosure, the channel variance estimation involves estimation of two or more co-variances for different received samples. Importantly, the equalizer is “fractionally spaced,” which means that the equalizer defines fractional filtering coefficients (filter taps), unlike conventional equalizers that presume that filter coefficients are defined at integer chip spacing. The techniques can allow the equalizer to account for antenna diversity, such as receive diversity, transmit diversity, or possibly both.

    摘要: Timing phase information is extracted from a power spectrum of a received signal whose amplitude is modulated per frame or sub-frame, and timing phase synchronization of the received signal is performed with the timing phase information. Also, a vector signal of the power spectrum is generated, the vector signal is multiplied by another vector signal to be rotated, a sign decision of the rotated vector signal is performed, a result of the sign decision is integrated to be outputted as the timing phase information, and a vector conversion is performed to the integrated value to be fed back as the other vector signal.
