摘要:
Processing in a baseband processor is improved by estimating channelization code powers when processing received signals and reducing at least one of interference and noise power from the code power estimates. According to one embodiment of a wireless communication device such as a mobile phone or Local Area Network (LAN) adapter, the device comprises circuitry configured to receive a composite signal having contributions from a signal of interest and one or more interfering signals and a baseband processor. The baseband processor is configured to estimate channelization code powers for a channelization code associated with the signal of interest and one or more channelization codes associated with the one or more interfering signals. The baseband processor is also configured to reduce at least one of interference and noise power from the channelization code power estimates.
摘要:
The computational complexity required for interference suppression in the reception of wireless communications from multiple users is reduced by sharing information among the users. In some situations, information indicative of a statistical characteristic of the interference is shared among the users. Delays used to produce the interference statistic information are determined based on rake finger delays employed by the users. In some situations, a parameter estimate that is used to calculate combining weights for the users is shared among the users.

A delay-and-add filtering technique positions one or more filter nulls substantially at points of narrowband interference in a relatively wideband received signal. For example, the technique is useful in removing adjacent channel interference in a received W-CDMA signal caused GSM radio transmissions.

A special coding scheme is disclosed for more effectively acquiring a long code and frame timing during a cell search in a CDMA communications system. A code set of length M Q-ary code words including symbols from a set of Q short codes is defined with certain properties. The primary property to be satisfied is that no cyclic shift of a code word yields a valid code word. The other properties to be satisfied are that there is a one-to-one mapping between a long code message and a valid code word, and a decoder should be able to find both the random shift (thereby implicitly finding the frame timing) and the transmitted code word (i.e., its associated long code indication message) in the presence of interference and noise, with some degree of accuracy and reasonable complexity.

Access requests are communicated from a plurality of radiotelephones to a central station over a random access channel carrier frequency band during a first RACH message time window. Short message acknowledgements are communicated from the plurality of radiotelephones to the central station over the random access channel carrier frequency band during a second RACH message time window, in response to short messages communicated from the central station to the plurality of radiotelephones. Preferably, the first RACH message time window includes a first set of TDMA time slots in a group of TDMA control channel multiframes, and the second RACH message time window includes a second set of TDMA time slots in the group of TDMA control channel multiframes, thereby forming a RACH multiframe. Preferably, the first and second RACH message time windows are separated by a guard time. A radiotelephone communications signal representing a short message acknowledgement encoded according to a predetermined short message code, preferably previously communicated to a radiotelephone in a short message from the central station, may be transmitted from the radiotelephone. The radiotelephone communications signal is received at the central station and decoded according to the predetermined short message code to thereby recover a short message acknowledgement. The plurality of radiotelephones may be arranged into paging groups, each having a unique short message code assigned thereto, and a limited number of short message including the unique short message code may be communicated during a given RACH multiframe.
摘要:
A symbol is transmitted in a communications medium according to a first spreading sequence of a set of spreading sequences, for example, CDMA channelization codes, which may be used to transmit symbols in the system. A communications signal is received from the communications medium, for example, at a mobile terminal. The received communications signal is resolved into a plurality of multipath signal components by, for example, descrambling the received signal according to a cell-specific scrambling code. The resolved plurality of signal components is correlated with the set of spreading sequences to generate a respective set of correlations for a respective one of the resolved signal components, a respective one of the sets of correlations including a respective correlation of a resolved signal component with the first spreading sequence. An interference component associated with a second spreading sequence of the set of spreading sequences, identified based on the correlations of the resolved signal components with the set of possible spreading sequences, is cancelled from the correlations of the plurality of resolved signal components with the first spreading sequence, thus generating a set of interference-cancelled correlations of the resolved signal components with the first spreading sequence. The transmitted symbol is estimated from the set of interference-cancelled correlations. Preferably, the set of spreading sequences is orthogonal. More preferably, the set of spreading sequences comprises a Hadamard code, and the correlations of the set of possible spreading sequences with the resolved signal components is generated using a fast Hadamard transform.

A system and method are provided for achieving slot synchronization in a Wideband CDMA system in the presence of large initial frequency errors. A FSC matched filter having a reduced coherence window is provided for reducing degradation of a symbol due to carrier phase rotation resulting from oscillator error, thereby preventing severe loss of signal energy at the peaks of the FSC matched filter output. Additionally, a circular sliding integrator is provided to combine the accumulated disbursed signal energies due to the oscillator error and multipath interference, thereby allowing easier identification of the time index representing the time slot boundary. Further, a sorter is provided for determining a predetermined number of time index candidates representing the time slot boundary, thereby increasing the possibility that the true time index boundary is sent to the second stage of synchronization.

A method for acquiring a spotbeam beacon frequency is disclosed. The method comprises a fast synchronization procedure wherein the beacon frequency of the spotbeam is first acquired using a carrier acquisition process. A coarse time acquisition procedure is then performed on the acquired beacon frequency followed by a performance of a fine time and frequency acquisition process. The entire process enables spotbeam beacon acquisition in a range of approximately 2.7-27 seconds.
摘要:
Each transmission frame within a spread spectrum communications system relating to synchronization code transmission is divided into a plurality of slots. Each of the slots includes a primary (pilot) code c.sub.p and a secondary (combined) code c.sub.s/lci that includes information identifying or indicative of both a frame timing and a scrambling code for synchronization. This information concerning frame timing and scrambling code may be encoded in the combined code c.sub.s/lci itself, as well as in the modulation values of the sequences of plural combined codes within a frame. Alternatively, the information is encoded in the sequence of plural combined codes c.sub.s/lci transmitted in each frame, as well as in the modulated values of the sequences of plural combined codes within a frame. As yet another alternative, the information is encoded in the timing of the combined code c.sub.s/lci transmission within each slot of the frame relative to its associated primary code c.sub.p.

摘要:
A method in a network node for assisting a first user equipment in interference mitigation. The network node is comprised in a cellular communications network. The cellular communications network further comprises the first user equipment and a second user equipment. The second user equipment causes interference to the first user equipment when at least one of the first user equipment and second user equipment communicate by using Device-to-Device communication. The network node obtains information about the receiver of the first user equipment. The network node then determines one or more parameters required by the first user equipment for mitigating the interference. The parameters relate to the obtained information and to the interfering second user equipment. The network node then sends the one or more parameters to the first user equipment thereby assisting the first user equipment to mitigate interference caused by the second user equipment.
