摘要:
Apparatus and a method for receiving spread-spectrum signals is provided. The method includes the steps of detecting a noisy user signal from a spread-spectrum signal including at least a first user signal (including data therein) and at least one pilot signal, and removing an interference effect of the pilot signal on the first user signal from the noisy user signal thereby to create a noise reduced user signal.

A prescribed frequency component f0+nfd of the intermediate-frequency signal extracted by means of a mixer (44) is amplified and the shared wave signal is demodulated and modulated thereby to reproduce the TDMA which is the shared wave signal. Then a subtractor (51) extracts CDMA#1 which is a desired wave signal by subtracting the shared wave signal, namely, the TDMA from the intermediate-frequency signal.

A direct-sequence CDMA receiver comprises power detectors for receiving a spread spectrum signal for detecting the power levels of user channels. A channel ranking circuit determines the ranks of the power levels. A framing circuit segments the received spread spectrum signal into data blocks and appending, to each of the data blocks, a header containing channel numbers identifying the user channels arranged according to the determined power level ranks. A plurality of serial interference cancellation stages are provided, each including the interference cancellers arranged in descending order of ranks. Each interference canceller detects one of the channel numbers of the header corresponding to the rank of the interference canceller, and removes one or more interfering signals from an associated user channel by using a despreading code that corresponds to the detected channel number.

The present invention provides a method of determining a transmission power for device to device, D2D, transmissions between a first user equipment device and a second user equipment device using transmission resources being used for transmissions to a cellular network entity by a third user equipment device, the method comprising determining a measure of a path loss between the cellular network entity and the first user equipment device, and using the measure of the path loss to determine a maximum transmission power such that the D2D transmissions are received at the cellular network entity with a signal level around or below a noise level.

A system (25) and method (45) to more efficiently compute updated Frequency Domain Minimum Mean Squared Error, FD MMSE, equalization weights in a multistage Parallel Interference Cancellation, PIC, receiver (62) after initial interference cancellation. The updated equalization weights (which are to be used during re-equalization) can be obtained using the old equalization weights already computed for initial interference cancellation. There is no need to invert an n R by n R matrix (where n R is the number of receive antennas) at each stage of the PIC receiver during each iteration of equalization and decoding operations, Rather, the matrix to be inverted to obtain updated equalization weights may be of the dimension n x n (where " n " equals the total number of transmission layers in a transmission scheme used in the wireless network). This significantly reduces complexity of determining updated equalization weights during FD MMSE equalization, thereby saving computational resources in a digital receiver performing such equalization.
