摘要:
A method for data rate selection of a data transmission on a wide band code division multiple access (WCDMA) radio frequency (RF) channel in a portable communication device (100) is provided. The portable communication device (100) has transmitter circuitry (108) which includes a power amplifier (250). The method includes the steps of determining a power backoff requirement for the power amplifier (250) for a data transmission on a WCDMA channel (320) and selecting a transport format combination (TFC) for the data transmission in response to the power backoff requirement (324).

A method and system for adaptive control of sub-carriers is useful for increasing frequency diversity gain to improve bit error rate performance in an Interleaved Frequency Division Multiple Access (IFDMA) system. The method includes selecting a combination of a Repetition Factor (RF) and a repetition block size (Q), from possible combinations of a RF and a Q, based on a number of users (Nu) (step 1405). A Spreading Factor (SF), Forward Error Correction (FEC) coding rate (R), or modulation order (M) based on the Nu is then determined (step 1410). Control signals are then provided based on the RF and Q, and based on the SF, R, or M (step 1415).
摘要:
A multi-rate interleaved frequency division multiple access (IFDMA) modulation scheme permits users to transmit at different data rates or to vary their data rates while providing frequency diversity and preserving low peak-to-average power ratios and orthogonality between users at different data rates. The modulation scheme allows user-specific data block and repetition sizes, as well as user-specific modulation codes. Code assignment rules are provided for maintaining orthogonality between users having different data rates. Block and phase ramp modulation codes can be used. Asynchronous transmissions by users are supported by ensuring that the length of the cyclic extension is sufficiently long to tolerate worst case relative signal arrival delays between users and the channel pulse response duration over the communication medium. The modulation scheme can be employed in wireless communication systems, such as cellular or paging systems.
摘要:
A digital receiver fast frequency and time acquisition system (200) for accurately providing both time and frequency synchronization to an incoming data stream with minimal delay to prevent any loss of incoming digital information. The invention provides synchronization with only a single synchronization word and includes a first channel select (CS) filter (204) that filters an incoming digital signal (202). A frame synchronization detector (206) then recognizes the time synchronization word from the first filtered signal. A coarse symbol time estimator (208) is then used for coarsely adjusting the time synchronization of the digital signal from the frame synchronization detector (206) and a fine frequency estimator (210) finely adjusts the frequency of the signal from the coarse symbol time estimator (208) for providing a frequency adjusted signal. A mixer (212) then combines the incoming digital signal with the frequency adjusted signal and provides a time and frequency compensated digital signal. A second CS filter (214) filters the frequency compensated digital signal and a fine symbol time estimator (216) works to determine symbol timing with greater precision. Finally, a symbol detector (218) is used for interpreting the incoming digital signal.

A staggered spread OFCDM scheme is utilized that improves channel estimation. In a first embodiment, each chip stream is time shifted by a predetermined amount and then transmitted on a predetermined subcarrier. This results in time-spread symbols being staggered (time-offset) on different subcarriers allowing for more frequent sampling of the channel. In a second embodiment a staggered spreading approach is applied in the frequency dimension to improve the performance of a system with spreading in the frequency dimension.

A wireless terminal that supports operation on a first wireless technology and operation on a second wireless technology performs a first set of measurements on a received signal on first operating frequency of the first wireless technology, wherein the first set of measurements are performed during time periods that overlap time periods during which the wireless terminal transmits signals of the second wireless technology. The terminal also performs interference avoidance to avoid interference from transmissions of signals of the second wireless technology to reception of signals of the first wireless technology if the first set of measurements indicates interference due to transmission of signals of the second wireless technology by the wireless terminal.

The controller is configured to tune the transceiver to transmit on a narrowband uplink control channel within a wideband frequency resource. The uplink control channel includes a pair of uplink control channels separated within the wideband frequency resource wherein the pair of uplink control channels are each located within a corresponding PUCCH resource region. The controller is also configured to change a frequency location of at least one of the uplink control channels, within the corresponding PUCCH resource region, away from an edge of the wideband frequency resource.

There is provided a communication device and a base unit, and methods thereof, for determining control information. The communication device receives a control channel message associated with the communication device in a control region on a first carrier from a base unit. The communication device also determines a set of resources in a search space within the control region, attempts to decode the set of resources in the search space for the control channel message, and determines control information from the decoded control channel message. The base unit generates a control channel message comprising control information associated with the communication device, determines a set of resources in a search space within a control region, selects a subset of resources within the determined set of resources for transmitting the control channel message, and transmits the control channel message on the selected resources in the control region on a first carrier.
