    Abstract: System for providing transitions between operating modes of a device. The system includes a method for providing transitions between a privileged and a non-privileged operating mode. The method comprises executing an application in the non-privileged mode, generating an interrupt to request the services of a privileged function, and transitioning to the privileged mode to execute the privileged function, wherein the privileged function is executed as part of the same thread of execution as the application.

    Abstract: A technique for calibrating the open-loop transmit power of a wireless communication device overcomes the inherent nonlinearities in the gain control input of a variable gain amplifier (VGA). In one embodiment, a feedback circuit generates a signal indicative of the transmit power. This signal is compared with a desired transmit power level, which comprises an open-loop gain component and a closed-loop gain component. The desired transmit power level is compared with the actual transmit power level and an error signal is generated. The error signal is used to alter the gain of the VGA in the transmitter to thereby adjust the actual transmit power level to correspond with the desired transmit power level. In alternative embodiment, the receiver portion, which also contains a VGA, is pre-calibrated in a conventional manner. During a transmitter calibration process, the transmitter is coupled to the receiver input through a mixer and filter. The pre-calibrated receiver determines the actual transmit power level. The difference is used to generate error correction data to adjust for non linearities in the gain control input of the transmitter VGA.

    Abstract: Techniques for converting short messages between different formats (e.g., from GSM SMS to CDMA SMS) such that pertinent control information is retained without changing the fundamental structure of these message formats. A new value is defined for the Msg_Encoding field in the User Data subparameter of the CDMA SMS message to indicate that the content of this message is an encapsulated GSM SMS message. The Message_Type field in the User Data subparameter may be used to carry data coding scheme information for the encapsulated GSM SMS message. At a recipient mobile station, the value in the Msg_Encoding field is checked to determine whether or not the CDMA SMS message includes an encapsulated GSM SMS message. If the answer is yes, then the user data in the CHARi fields of the CDMA SMS message is processed based on the data coding scheme information from the Message_Type field.

    Abstract: A receiver chain (53) for use in a wireless communication system includes a compact, highly correlated, multi-element antenna. The multiple antenna elements (34) and (35) are configured to receive a signal from at least one base station. The highly correlated signals output from the antenna elements (34 and 35) are optimally combined in a controller (55) using a set of weighting factors. The set of weighting factors for each base station signal is determined in response to the spatial signatures of the received signals.

    Abstract: Techniques for providing secure processing and data storage for a wireless communication device. In one specific design, a remote terminal includes a data processing unit, a main processor, and a secure unit. The data processing unit processes data for a communication over a wireless link. The main processor provides control for the remote terminal. The secure unit includes a secure processor that performs the secure processing for the remote terminal (e.g., using public-key cryptography) and a memory that provides secure storage of data (e.g., electronics funds, personal data, certificates, and so on). The secure processor may include an embedded ROM that stores program instructions and parameters used for the secure processing. For enhanced security, the secure processor and memory may be implemented within a single integrated circuit. Messaging and data may be exchanged with the secure unit via a single entry point provided by a bus.

    Abstract: Techniques for scalable CDMA demodulation with maximum response latency are disclosed. In one aspect, a finger timing unit generates signals indicating cycle boundaries for a plurality of fingers, and an offline processing unit processes stored samples for those fingers in response to the signals. In another aspect, incoming samples are stored in a RAM, while finger timing is maintained using a plurality of counters. The RAM address is stored on symbol boundaries. Symbols for each finger are generated in an offline processing unit, clocked at a higher speed than the finger counters, from a RAM location computed using the stored RAM address. Various other aspects are also presented. These aspects provide for decoupling of the chip rate processing from chip time, which allows a single offline processing unit to service a plurality of fingers, thus reducing additional hardware required to support additional fingers while maintaining maximum latency requirements.

    Abstract: A cross product is determined for a received signal. A dot product is also determined for the received signal. If the cross product is greater than a predetermined threshold, the cross product is decremented by the product of the dot product multiplied by a constant value. If the cross product is less than or equal to the predetermined threshold, the cross product is incremented by the product of the dot product multiplied by the constant value. The incrementing or decrementing is continued until the frequency error approaches a minimum value.
