    摘要: In a digital signal transmission system, a receiver receives a signal, wherein the signal bandwidth of the system exceeds the system symbol rate. A correlation and sampling circuit receives a baseband signal, samples the signal eight times per symbol time, correlates, generates a channel estimate and down-samples the sampled signal to form an observed signal. This signal is filtered in a prefilter, whose output is sampled at symbol rate and the obtained signal is delivered to a channel equalizer which performs a viterbi algorithm with non-quadratic metric calculation and generates estimated symbols. A channel estimation filter receives a symbol sequence which contains alternate zero-value symbols and the estimated symbols and generates an estimated signal. An error signal is generated and used to adapt the channel estimate and also to generate weight factors. The coefficients of the prefilter are generated as a function of the channel estimate and the weight factors. Coefficients are generated in a metric calculation filter, by convolving the channel estimate with the prefilter and are used to generate the estimated symbols. The transmission channel, excluding the prefilter, is estimated explicitly so as to enable fast channel changes to be followed. The use of the weight factors enables a short channel estimate to be used. The insertion of the zero-value symbols simplifies adaptation of the channel estimate.

    摘要: A low complexity model based channel estimator is disclosed for use by a receiver in Rayleigh fading environments. The receiver contains at least one channel state estimator which uses an auto regressive model for channel variations. The channel state estimates are initialized by using at least preliminarily detected symbols. The receiver also contains a data detector which uses the received signal and the channel estimate, or a function thereof, delivered by at least one channel estimator to detect the transmitted symbols.

    摘要: A method and system are disclosed for facilitating the timing (e.g., the known relative timing differences) of base stations (BSs) in asynchronous CDMA mobile communications systems. A plurality of mobile stations (MSs) measure the relative time differences between various pairs of BSs, and these measurements are stored by the BSs. A source BS sends to an MS, in a neighbor list message, estimates of the relative time difference between the source BS and each of the BSs on the neighboring cell list. Each BS on the list can maintain a relative time difference estimate table, which can be updated continuously from the reports received from MSs. Subsequently, the BSs can send entries from this table to the MS in the neighbor list message. Using this novel technique, the BSs have known relative timing differences. Consequently, when the MS initiates a cell-search for a candidate BS, the MS already has an estimate of the timing of that BS as compared to its source BS. As such, the resulting cell-search procedure has a lower level of complexity and thus can be accomplished much quicker than with prior procedures. In addition, the relative time difference estimates can be compared with corresponding time differences that are measured by a second mobile station. Based on this comparison, the propagation delays of signals between the second MS and various BSs can be calculated to determine the position of the second MS.

    摘要: A novel format is provided for an uplink common physical channel in a random access mobile communications system, whereby a mobile station transmits a first packet including a predetermined signature pattern in parallel with a second packet including the data part of the random access request. Consequently, in addition to its attendant advantages, the signature part of a random access request can also function as a Pilot by providing additional energy for channel estimation during the data part of the request, while reducing the amount of overhead signalling involved. This additional energy is especially useful for ensuring sufficiently high quality coherent detection of the data part in a rapidly varying radio channel environment.

    摘要: A method and system for transmitting signals using unequal error protection (UEP). According to the method, symbols having a higher level of coding protection are detected and decoded first, soft reliability information is generated, and then the previously detected symbols and soft reliability information are used to detect and decode symbols having the next lower level of coding protection. The symbols having lower levels of coding protection benefit from the decoding of all previous classes of symbols. Data symbols can be interleaved to further enhance system performance.

    摘要: In a digital time-shared transmission system, a receiver receives a signal whose symbol rate is lower than the channel bandwidth of the system. A correlating and sampling circuit receives a baseband signal, samples the signal a number of times with each symbol time, performs channel correlation, generates a channel estimate and samples down the once sampled signal to an observed signal with two values for each symbol time. A channel equalizer executes a fractional viterbi algorithm which utilizes two delta-metric values for each state transition and generates estimated symbols. A channel estimating filter receives a symbol sequence of alternating zero-value symbols and the estimated symbols and generates an estimated signal. The channel estimating filter is adapted with the aid of an error signal and the filter delivers a channel estimate to the channel equalizer. Weighting factors are generated with the aid of the error signal and the two aforementioned delta-metric values are co-weighted to a common delta-metric value with the aid of weighting factors, this common delta-metric value being used to generate the estimated symbols. The use of the weighting factors improves the metric calculation and enables the channel estimating filter and the channel equalizer to be relatively simple. The insertion of the zero-value symbols simplifies the generation of the weighting factors and the adaptation of the channel estimating filter.
