摘要:
Conserving power for coded transmissions comprises ceasing to process parity packets once associated data packets are deemed correct or corrected. Once data packets are deemed correct or corrected, the receiving unit can shut off during the transmission of parity packets.

A method of wireless communication includes receiving a wireless signal at a linear receiver, and iteratively computing an inverted covariance matrix in frequency domain, one channel code at a time. The method also includes computing receiver demodulation coefficients based on the inverted covariance matrix and the frequency domain channel estimate or time domain channel estimate. The method further includes deriving a transmitter symbol based on a received signal vector and the coefficients.
摘要:
In wireless communication systems, received signal estimation and detection is computationally intensive. During such processing, received signal matrices may be conditioned prior to inversion to improve stability. In particular, code domain conditioning, followed by time domain conditioning prior to inversion results in improved receiver performance. Such code and time domain conditioning may be particularly suited to a Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) system where code values are not averaged out of a received signal matrix.

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.
摘要:
Techniques to process data for transmission over a set of transmission channels selected from among all available transmission channels. In an aspect, the data processing includes coding data based on a common coding and modulation scheme to provide modulation symbols and pre-weighting the modulation symbols for each selected channel based on the channel's characteristics. The pre-weighting may be achieved by “inverting” the selected channels so that the received SNRs are approximately similar for all selected channels. With selective channel inversion, only channels having SNRs at or above a particular threshold are selected, “bad” channels are not used, and the total available transmit power is distributed across only “good” channels. Improved performance is achieved due to the combined benefits of using only the NS best channels and matching the received SNR of each selected channel to the SNR required by the selected coding and modulation scheme.
摘要:
Time filtering channel estimates in a wireless communication system, such as an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) system, can be used to improve the quality of channel estimates. The characteristics of an optimal channel estimate time filter can depend on the manner in which the channel estimate is determined as well as the time correlation of channel estimates. A receiver can implement an adaptive time filter for channel estimates in which the time filter response can vary based on channel estimate parameters. The channel estimate parameters can include the manner of determining channel estimates, a time correlation of channel estimates, and an estimated Doppler frequency. The time filter response can be varied continuously over a range of responses or can be varied discretely over a predetermined number of time filter responses.

The disclosure is directed to a receiver, and methods therefor, including an automatic gain control circuit with a first digital variable gain amplifier that outputs digital samples based on a modulated wireless signal, an interference canceller configured to filter the digital samples using a least mean squares algorithm to reduce narrowband interference, and a second DVGA configured to amplify the filtered digital samples.
摘要:
Systems and methods are provided for determining and applying timing corrections in a digital communications system. In an aspect, a timing correction method is provided for a multi-carrier system. This includes aligning two or more symbols with respect to each other from a symbol subset in order to account for timing differences between the symbols. The symbol alignment is first carried out to generate channel estimates for data demodulation. The channel estimates, thus generated, along with the timing alignment information are in turn used for determining timing corrections-to be applied to future symbols.

Techniques for performing frequency control using dual-loop automatic frequency control (AFC) are described. The dual-loop AFC includes an inner loop that corrects short-term frequency variations (e.g., due to Doppler effect) and an outer loop that corrects long-term frequency variations (e.g., due to component tolerances and temperature variations). In one design, a first inner loop is implemented for frequency control of a first system (e.g., a broadcast system), a second inner loop is implemented for frequency control of a second system (e.g., a cellular system), and at least one outer loop is implemented for adjusting a reference frequency used to receive signals from the first and second systems. Each inner loop estimates and corrects the frequency error in an input signal for the associated system and may be enabled when receiving the input signal from the system. The reference frequency may be used for frequency downconversion, sampling and/or other purposes.

An acquisition module includes a coherent correlator configured to receive a transmission having a pilot signal and correlate the received transmission with a local copy of the pilot signal to produce a first output, a delayed correlator configured to delay the first output and correlate the first output with the delayed first output to produce a second output, and a detector configured to detect the pilot signal in the transmission based on the second output.
