Various techniques are disclosed to improve redundancy in multi-carrier wireless systems. An example technique is provided that may include commonly encoding a block of data, modulating the encoded block of data across a plurality of carriers, and transmitting via a wireless link the encoded block of data including the plurality of carriers. The modulating may, for example, include modulating a first portion of the encoded block onto a first carrier and modulating a second portion of the encoded block onto a second carrier, wherein encoded data on the first carrier for the block of data may be used for error detection and/or error correction of encoded data on the second carrier for the block of data. Error detection and correction for the encoded block may be performed across the plurality of carriers, which may provide frequency diversity for the block of data.

In one aspect this invention provides a wireless communication system (5) that includes a mobile station (20) having circuitry (22, 24, 26) and a computer program controlling operation of the circuitry to make a measurement from a forward channel to obtain a measurement result value, to quantize the measurement result value in accordance with an N level quantization to obtain a code, and to report the code on a reverse channel. The wireless communication system further includes a base station (10) having circuitry (12, 14, 16) and a computer program controlling operation of the circuitry to convert the code to a number, to compare the number to a threshold and, if the comparison indicates that the number may not accurately reflect the measurement result value, to adjust the number using an adjustment factor. In these embodiments the adjustment factor, also referred to as Delta, may be a constant, or it may be a variable. In one embodiment Delta is computed by the mobile station, and is reported to the base station.

摘要:
A method and system for providing efficient transmission power control commands to a base station. In a third generation IS-95 CDMA network, for example, cdma2000, the forward pilot channel is used to estimate the received signal power level. In the presently preferred embodiment, a mobile station measures the received pilot channel power, on a forward link pilot channel. The loss experienced on the pilot channel is estimated as the difference between the pilot channel power transmitted at the base station and the pilot channel power received at the mobile station. The pilot power transmission power is typically fixed based upon the operating environment of the base station. The fixed pilot channel transmission power can be transmitted via a message from the base station. Based on the estimated channel loss, the received traffic power is calculated as the difference between the initial traffic channel transmission power, that is, the power when the mobile station is assigned a traffic channel, and the estimated loss added to any power control gain corrections that have occurred. The initial traffic channel transmission power can be a default value or can be assigned by the base station using signaling messages, e.g., a forward common control channel (or F-CCCH) message. Power control decisions are made based on the ratio of received traffic channel energy with an estimate of interference and noise on the channel. A “power control decision” is made by comparing the ratio with a predetermined threshold to determine if the power level should be raised or lowered.
