摘要:
A method for performing power control in a wireless communication unit (112) operating in a wireless communication system (100), includes the steps of: determining (315) a path loss correlation metric to derive one or more parameters pertaining to a wireless transmission; and adjusting an output power level of said wireless communication unit in response to said one or more parameters.Basing power control calculations on a path loss correlation metric provides the advantage of improved power control performance particularly for slow moving subscriber equipment without compromising power control performance at high speed.
摘要:
A system, transmitter, receiver and method for communication power control by the transmitting entity (150A) keeping a sequence number counter (200) per UE (130A) that is incremented whenever a common channel transmission is made specifically to that UE. The value of the counter is signalled inside the message itself (or possibly by other signalling means) across the Uu interface. When the intended recipient UE correctly decodes a message, it also decodes the counter value. It compares this counter value with the last correctly received sequence number, which it holds in a memory (300), and deduces whether there are any missing sequence numbers, and accordingly effects transmission power control

A method, user equipment, network equipment and a system for initiating a wireless connection and subsequent communication over a shared physical resource in a wireless communication system between user equipment and network equipment comprising: processing a UE-derived temporary identifier; communicating the temporary identifier as an identifier to the network equipment; communicating a downlink message conveying the temporary identifier and a description of a scheduled resource on a shared channel, the scheduled resource comprising a resource allocated to the user equipment by the network equipment; and communicating data on the scheduled resource in response to the downlink message.
摘要:
A coherent or a noncoherent transmission mode is automatically selected for a transmission on the basis of an estimated Doppler frequency shift due to a motion of a mobile terminal. A coherent mode is selected if a pilot signal overhead is not excessive to uniquely characterize a Doppler frequency shift, as at lower carrier frequency times relative velocity products. A noncoherent mode is selected if a pilot signal overhead would be excessive to uniquely characterize a Doppler frequency shift at higher carrier frequency times relative velocity products. Both the coherent and noncoherent modes have respective advantages for their respective carrier frequency time relative velocity regimes.
摘要:
A method and arrangement for processing of CCTrCH data in a UMTS system, by: receiving CCTrCH data across a plurality of radio frames and timeslots (310); storing the received CCTrCH data (320); and upon receipt of complete data for a CCTrCH, processing the stored CCTrCH data through channel processing asynchronously to the received timeslot structure (360). Preferably, the received CCTrCH data is stored in a single RAM memory in link-list form, whereby each timeslot of received CCTrCH data can be independently accessed in the memory. This method of buffering the different parts of the received CCTrCH data, so that they can be recombined before the TrCH decoding and de-multiplexing, is both memory efficient and spreads out the processing load over time.

An Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) communication system comprises OFDM transmitters (103-109) and an OFDM receiver (101) . The system comprises a subcarrier status data controller (200) for transmitting subcarrier status data to the OFDM receiver (101) . The subcarrier status data indicates a modulation scheme used on subcarriers of the OFDM transmitters (103-109) . The OFDM receiver (101) further comprises a subcarrier status processor (203) which receives the subcarrier status data and a channel estimator (205) which determines channel estimates for at least an air interface communication channel from the first OFDM transmitter (103) and an air interface communication channel from the interfering OFDM transmitter (105) . An interference mitigation processor (207) performs interference mitigation of the interference in response to the subcarrier status data and the channel estimates thereby providing improved recovery of the data from the first OFDM transmitter (103) .

A cellular communication system comprises a Multiple-In Multiple-Out, MIMO, transmitter (101) and receiver (103). The MIMO transmitter (101) comprises a message generator (303) for generating MIMO messages comprising selected training sequences and transceivers (305, 307, 309) transmitting the messages on a plurality of antennas (311, 313, 315). The training sequences are selected by a midamble selector (317) from a set of training sequences in response to an associated antenna on which the message is to be transmitted. The set of training sequences is associated with the cell of the MIMO transmitter and comprises disjoint subsets of training sequences for each of the plurality of antennas. The receiver (103) comprises a transmit antenna detector (419) which determines which antenna of the MIMO transmitter the message is transmitted from in response to the training sequence of the received message.

摘要:
A cellular communication system comprises a base station (101) and a plurality of user equipment (103). The base station (101) comprises a combine processor (111) which combines user equipment specific information, such as power control commands or synchronisation information, for a plurality of user equipment (103). An encode processor (113) encodes the combined user equipment specific information and a transceiver (109) transmits the combined user equipment specific information in a minimum transmission resource unit of the cellular communication system. The minimum transmission resource unit may be a single channelisation code in a single time slot. The UE (103) comprises a receiver (115) for receiving the minimum transmission resource unit and a UE data processor (117) which decodes the minimum transmission resource unit and extracts the user equipment specific information for that UE (103). The invention may provide a more efficient communication of small data blocks.
摘要:
A scheme for resource allocation for variable rate users in a packet-based radio communication system such as a UMTS TDD system is based on a representation (200) of the resource space organised orthogonally in 3 dimensions by codes, timeslots and frames. The representation (200) is searched to identify new resources that may be allocated and updated when new resources have been allocated. This scheme provides an efficient method for placing allocated resources into the system resource space while maintaining efficient packing, and provides the following advantages: allocations that result in different overall throughput rates can be made to users; efficient packing of allocated resources means that wasted resources is minimised; since the representation of the system resource space is bounded, the stored information at the resource allocator function (in the radio access network) can be minimized; allocations are only made based on the most current frame in the representation of the system resource space this reduces required complexity; and the maximum number of frames into the future over which resources can be allocated can be used to modify the shape of allocations.
