摘要:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In order to exchange data over a given wireless communication network, a wireless device may first perform a cell acquisition procedure (e.g., to determine cell-specific information such as timing and frequency offsets, bandwidth, control channel formatting, etc.). In some systems, aspects of the timing information may be conveyed with scrambling codes applied to a master information block (MIB). Physical broadcast channel (PBCH) payloads, including MIB transmissions, may be jointly encoded with synchronization signal indices. Bursts of MIB transmissions may thus be decoded without blind decoding while maintaining error protection and low latency that may be necessary to obtain critical system information within the MIB.

Methods and apparatus are disclosed for interference management. The interference management is based on dynamic point selection or semi-static point selection. The method includes determining interference at a plurality of network nodes. The method includes selecting a transmission point from the plurality of network nodes for a transmission to at least one mobile entity based on the determined interference.

A method and system for improving the reception of uplink transmissions in a heterogeneous wireless communication system includes a high-power node such as a macro-cell and a low-power node such as a femto-cell or pico-cell. To address an uplink imbalance where a nearby low-power node power controls a UE such that uplink transmissions of an HSDPA control channel are poorly received at the serving cell, an RNC can instruct the UE to boost its uplink transmit power, remove the UE from soft handover, or disable power control of the UE by the low-power node. To address inter-cell interference, the RNC can limit the UE transmit power and/or enable the victim cell to suppress the interference. Further, a common control channel can be used to power control UEs outside of the convention set of UEs available for power control.

Techniques for supporting distributed MIMO are described. For multi-user distributed MIMO, a cell directs its transmit power toward a UE while reducing interference to UE(s) in neighbor cell(s). For single-user distributed MIMO, multiple cells concurrently send transmissions to a UE. In an aspect, a UE sends channel estimates for serving and non-serving cells to support multi-user distributed MIMO. Each cell may use the channel estimates to select UEs for data transmission and determine precoding vectors to use for data transmission to the selected UEs. In another aspect, a UE sends CQI information for serving and non-serving cells to support single-user distributed MIMO. Each cell may use the CQI information to select UEs for data transmission and determine modulation and coding schemes to use for the selected UEs. In yet another aspect, a UE determines CQI information for a serving cell by taking into account interference nulling by non-serving cells.

Aspects of radio access technology searching include apparatus and methods for obtaining relative synchronization information between a first radio access technology and a second radio access technology, and determining a time location of a pilot signal of the second radio access technology based on the relative synchronization information. Further aspects include searching for the pilot signal of the second radio access technology using the determined time location. Other aspects further include determining a measurement gap duration and measurement gap location based on the relative synchronization information so as to encompass a pilot of the second radio access technology.
摘要:
A method of initializing a receiver is performed during an initialization mode. Timing offset values for a timing recovery circuit are repeatedly selected. For each selected timing offset value, timing recovery is performed using the timing offset value and groups of weights for a decision feedback equalizer are repeatedly selected. Each selected group of weights is used to perform blind decision feedback equalization. For each selected group of weights, a metric indicating data reception quality is computed. A timing offset value and a group of weights are chosen based on the computed metrics.

In a communication system, user equipment (UE) conditionally performs uplink transmit diversity (ULTD) either by Switched Antenna Transmit Diversity (SATD) or Beamforming Transmit Diversity (BFTD) using a first antenna and a second antenna. Either a serving node or the UE determines that uplink transmit diversity is conditionally authorized. Either a serving node or the UE measures a value. The UE transmits using ULTD in response to determining that an enabling condition based on the value is satisfied. The UE can also disable uplink transmit diversity in response to determining that a disabling condition based on the value is satisfied. The disabling condition comprises a disabling threshold that equals the enabling condition comprising an enabling threshold with a threshold adjustment for hysteresis.

A method and apparatus for enhancing uplink operations in a CDMA system is provided. The method may include receiving a rate control value and a transmit power value from a node B, wherein the rate control value is determined through uplink scheduling by the node B, and wherein the transmit power value is selected by the node B to maintain a signal to interference plus noise (SINR) metric within a threshold for a pilot channel, transmitting control channel information at a first power level determined from the transmit power value, and using a first average power tracking unit to generate the first selected transmit power and transmitting data channel information at a second power level determined from both the rate control value and the transmit power value.

Apparatus and methods of wireless communication include configuring a closed loop transmit diversity (CLTD) operation between a User Equipment (UE) and an access node, detecting a condition of an uplink from the UE to the access node, and disabling CLTD operation by the UE based upon the condition. Optionally, the apparatus and methods may further include detecting that the condition of the uplink has ended, and in response enabling the CLTD operation.

Methods, systems and apparatuses for controlling radio links in a multiple carrier wireless communication system are disclosed. A method can include aggregating control functions from at least two carriers onto one carrier to form an anchor carrier and one or more associated secondary carriers; establishing communication links for the anchor carrier and each secondary carrier; and controlling communication based on the anchor carrier.
