摘要:
A rate adaptive transmission scheme for MIMO systems, which can transmit a variable number of data symbol streams, provide transmit diversity for each data symbol stream, and fully utilize the total transmit power of the system and the full power of each antenna. In one method, at least one data symbol stream is received for transmission from a plurality of antennas. Each data symbol stream is scaled with a respective weight corresponding to the amount of transmit power allocated to that stream. The scaled data symbol stream(s) are multiplied with a transmit basis matrix to provide a plurality of transmit symbol streams for the plurality of antennas. The transmit basis matrix (e.g., a Walsh-Hadamard matrix or a DFT matrix) is defined such that each data symbol stream is transmitted from all antennas and each transmit symbol stream is transmitted at (or near) the full power for the associated antenna.

Techniques for multiplexing and transmitting multiple data streams are described. Transmission of the multiple data streams occurs in “super-frames”. Each super-frame has a predetermined time duration and is further divided into multiple (e.g., four) frames. Each data block for each data stream is outer encoded to generate a corresponding code block. Each code block is partitioned into multiple subblocks, and each data packet in each code block is inner encoded and modulated to generate modulation symbols for the packet. The multiple subblocks for each code block are transmitted in the multiple frames of the same super-frame, one subblock per frame. Each data stream is allocated a number of transmission units in each super-frame and is assigned specific transmission units to achieve efficient packing. A wireless device can select and receive individual data streams.

A frequency tracking loop for a communication system using orthogonal Walsh modulation is provided. The frequency tracking loop includes a correlator (120), such as a fast Hadamard transformation device, and a discriminator (130). The correlator (120) produces a correlation vector (122) representing the result of correlating the input signal with each of a set of Walsh functions, with corresponding index values. The discriminator (130) produces a frequency error signal (ê) based on the correlator (120) output with the highest energy level and other correlator outputs whose indices are related to the index of highest energy correlator output by powers of two. The frequency error signal (ê) is generated by producing a cross product between the highest energy output and one or more of the other related correlator outputs. In further aspects, a filter (140) can be used to further shape the resulting error signal (ê) and form a frequency offset estimate signal ({circumflex over (f)}).

The present invention is a system and method for increasing user capacity on a slotted random access channel in a spread spectrum communications system by using a multi-part access probe. First and second parts of the access probe are modulated using a short PN code sequence, and the entire access probe is modulated using a long PN code sequence. Information to be transmitted by the access probe is modulated on the second part of the access probe, and the access probe is transmitted so that the first part of the probe falls within the boundaries of an access channel slot. In one embodiment, time slots in access channels used for access signal reception are made the length of the first part. In a further embodiment, time slots in a plurality of adjacent access channels used for access signal reception may be longer than said first part but are offset in time from each other by the length or period of the first part.

A system and method for frequency diversity uses interleaving in a wireless communication system utilizing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with various FFT sizes. Subcarriers of one or more interlaces are interleaved in a bit reversal fashion and the one or more interlaces are interleaved.
摘要:
A wireless communication apparatus in a hierarchically coded modulation system can use error control mechanisms generated during decoding of base layer information to predict a probability of successful demodulation of enhancement layer information. Performance in the demodulation of the base layer correlates to performance in the demodulation of the enhancement layer. The receiver can determine whether to attempt demodulation of temporally correlated enhancement layer data based in part on the predicted probability of success. If the receiver determines not to demodulate the enhancement layer, the receiver can power down the enhancement layer demodulator, or otherwise minimize the power expended in the enhancement layer demodulator.

Techniques for managing peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) for multi-carrier modulation in wireless communication systems. Different terminals in a multiple-access system may have different required transmit powers. The number of carriers to allocate to each terminal is made dependent on its required transmit power. Terminals with higher required transmit powers may be allocated fewer carriers (associated with smaller PAPR) to allow the power amplifier to operate at higher power levels. Terminals with lower required transmit powers may be allocated more carriers (associated with higher PAPR) since the power amplifier is operated at lower power levels. The specific carriers to assign to the terminals may also be determined by their transmit power levels to reduce out-of-band emissions. Terminals with higher required transmit powers may be assigned with carriers near the middle of the operating band, and terminals with lower required transmit powers may be assigned with carriers near the band edges.

To support mobile stations that are not capable of demodulating the entire bandwidth or that can be made to demodulate less than the entire bandwidth, a system, apparatus and method are provided to schedule users on less than all of the bandwidth. Further, certain users can be scheduled on more of the bandwidth than others.
