A Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) receiver comprises an adjustable delay line, a secondary synchronization processor and a controller. The secondary synchronization processor performs frame synchronization on a received wireless signal that is provided via the adjustable delay line. The controller varies the sub-chip timing delays provided by the adjustable delay line until a measure of accuracy of the frame synchronization process exceeds a predetermined threshold, upon which frame synchronization occurs.

摘要:
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for providing timing estimates of received signals are disclosed. In one embodiment, sub-chip timing in spread spectrum signals can be achieved without requiring oversampling in the receiver. A transmitter can adjust the timing of certain transmitted symbols by a fraction of a chip time from an expected time, and send the mistimed symbols to a receiver. The output of the receiver's de-spreading correlator can show different magnitudes for wedge symbols with different timing errors. By setting some symbols early and some late, and by taking the difference between their magnitudes, a transfer function between the result and a timing error can be determined.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for reducing the processing rate when performing chip-level equalization (CLE) in a code division multiple access (CDMA) receiver which includes an equalizer filter. Signals received by at least one antenna of the receiver are sampled at M times the chip rate. Each sample stream is split into M sample data streams at the chip rate. Multipath combining is preferably performed on each split sample data stream. The sample data streams are then combined into one combined sample data stream at the chip rate. The equalizer filter performs equalization on the combined sample stream at the chip rate. Filter coefficients are adjusted by adding a correction term to the filter coefficients utilized by the equalizer filter for a previous iteration.

摘要:
In general, the invention facilitates searching for energy peaks in spread spectrum wireless communication systems with greater precision. More particularly, various embodiments of the invention may involve reporting not only an energy peak and its associated offset, but also the energy levels corresponding to one or more offsets occurring before and after the offset at which the energy peak occurs. Interpolation or extrapolation techniques may be used to predict the actual location of an energy peak based on the apparent location of the peak and the energy levels observed at surrounding offsets.
