摘要:
The disclosure is directed to a mobile communication device that may receive wireless broadcast signals from a number of different base stations or transmitters. As the location of the device moves relative to the transmitters, one transmitter will likely be identified as the transmitter broadcast the strongest, or highest quality, signal. When that determination is made, the user of the mobile device is presented the opportunity to switch to receiving that transmitters signal. Based on the user's reply, the device may remain with the current transmitter, even though it does not have the strongest signal, or the device may be configured to acquire and start receiving the new transmitter's signal. The measuring of the quality of a transmitter's signal may be based on a composite score that combines a number of individual measurements made over a predetermined period of time.

Systems and methods are provided for processing forward link only (FLO) signals. A device receives a FLO signal, processes a TDM pilot comprising a TDM Pilot 1, a TDM Pilot 2, a WIC, a LIC, a Transition Pilot Channel, and a Positioning Pilot, from the FLO signal, processes an overhead information symbol (OIS) comprising a wide-area OIS and a local-area OIS, from the FLO signal, processes an FDM pilot comprising a wide-area FDM pilot and a local-area FDM pilot, from the FLO signal; and processes data comprising wide-area data and local-area data, from the FLO signal.

The disclosure is directed to a mobile communication device that determines when a performance disruption indicates a loss of synchronization with a broadcast signal and, in response, initiates reacquisition of the signal. Reacquisition techniques may include identifying and decoding only select portions of header information in the broadcast signal. Reacquisition may also be initiated in response to one or more deterministic triggers and during a test mode of operation.

A system and method for time diversity uses interleaving. To simplify the operation at both transmitters and receivers, a formula can be used to determine the mapping from slot to interlace at a given OFDM symbol time.

A system and method for frequency diversity uses interleaving. Subcarriers of an interlace are interleaved in a bit reversal fashion and the interlaces are interleaved in the bit reversal fashion.

A multimedia distribution system is disclosed. The distribution system includes a transmitter unit that distributes content from a content provider to one or more wireless subscriber units. The transmitter unit includes a decoder configured to determine whether a plurality of incoming packets include one or more erasures, a transmitter configured to transmit the packets to a receiving unit, and an error detection code generator configured to generate an error detection code for each of the packets transmitted to the receiver unit, the error detection code being modified for each of the erased packets so that the receiver unit will be able to identify the erased packets.
摘要:
The claimed subject matter relates to analyzing performance of a transmitter. This can be accomplished, for instance, through partitioning a super frame into a plurality of segments, and thereafter estimating and correcting phase with respect to at least one of the plurality of segments. Thereafter, additive noise can be determined with respect to the at least one segment. For instance, the super frame can include multiple OFDM symbols, and the transmitter can be a FLO transmitter.

Systems and methods are provided for processing forward link only (FLO) messages. A device for processing forward link only (FLO) wireless messages comprises receiving a FLO message and processing the FLO message including a header, an 8-bit FLO information block field, a 7-bit FLO count, an RF channel identifier, a transmit mode indicator, an outer code rate, and a stream identifier
摘要:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate monitoring transmitter performance in a wireless communication environment. A signal analyzer can be used to sample the output of a transmitter and the sampled signal can be propagated to a processor. The processor can generate frequency domain channel estimates for the subcarriers. If the transmitted modulation symbols are unknown, the processor can determine the modulation symbols and use the determined modulation symbols to calculate the channel estimates. The channel estimates can be averaged and used to generate various metrics to evaluate the transmitter performance.
