摘要:
A method and apparatus for reuse of pseudo-random noise (PN) offsets within a cell of a wireless communication system such as a multi-sector CDMA system. Adaptive antenna arrays are employed to form the multiple sector areas within the CDMA cell. A forward link data channel is established between a mobile unit and a base station via sectors that share or reuse comment PN offsets, thereby providing desirable transmit diversity.

A method, apparatus and system are provided for use in optimizing signal-to-noise ratios at remote wireless devices. A method can receive a signal over a reverse link, determine an angular power profile of the reverse link signal, and determine an antenna weighting vector for the forward traffic signal based on the angular power profile. The determination of the weighting vector can include retrieving the vector from a weighting vector table. Some methods identify boundaries of angular spreads and utilize pre-calculate weighting vectors according to the boundaries. An apparatus can include an antenna array, a wireless receiver that receives reverse link signals, a detector that detects an angular power profile of the signals, a controller that determines a weighting vector and applies the weighting vector to the antenna array when transmitting. Some embodiments are dependent on whether the forward link incorporates a common pilot or per-user pilot signal.

A method and apparatus is provided for transceiving an information signal in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) communication system that uses a plurality of radio frequency subcarriers modulated with the information signal and transceives the modulated plurality of radio frequency subcarriers through first and second antennas at a transmitter and first and second antennas at a receiver. The method includes the steps of providing first and second copies of the modulated plurality of radio frequency subcarriers that are transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver, phase rotating the first copy of the modulated plurality of radio frequency carriers with a subcarrier dependent phase rotation and summing the first rotated copy of the plurality of radio frequency subcarriers with the second copy of the modulated plurality of radio frequency carriers.
