Abstract: The optimal power allocation process of the present invention allocates power between two base stations, serving a given mobile radiotelephone, during soft hand-off. A minimum total transmit power is chosen initially. The minimum total transmit power level, the path losses for each base station, the maximum transmit power for each base station, and the minimum allowed received power are all used to generate a range of values for a transmit power level multiplier, .alpha.. The multiplier is used to allocate the total transmit power among the base stations. This process is performed until the probability of bit error is less than a maximum threshold.

Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for Mobile Transmit Diversity (MTD), or Uplink Transmit Diversity (ULTD) is disclosed. The mobile device either selects the best antenna at any given time, or transmits from both antennas using the best beam forming phase without feedback from the base station on which antenna to transmit from or which phase to use if using two antennas. Essentially operating in Open Loop MTD, a Hybrid Phase Sweeping algorithm requires testing of a fraction of phase hypotheses resulting in improved base station performance and higher data rates for the user.

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.

Abstract: Techniques for incorporating non-pilot symbols along with pilot symbols to improve the estimate of the characteristics (e.g., amplitude and phase) of a communication link. A pilot filter weighs samples corresponding to pilot and non-pilot symbol by different sets of coefficients, which have values determined by and/or corresponding to the confidence in the detected sample. Samples corresponding to pilot symbols are typically associated with higher degree of confidence and are weighted more (e.g., with weights of 1.0). Samples corresponding to non-pilot symbols are typically associated with lower confidence and are weighted with values that may be variable and dependent on the degree of confidence in the samples (e.g., with weights ranging from 0.0 up to 1.0). The weights are updated based on a particular estimator such as a MAP (Maximum a Posteriori) estimator, a MLE (Maximum Likelihood Estimator), or some other estimator.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the invention is directed toward methods for estimating the power of a received signal encoded with both pilot and non-pilot symbols. The method may include separately accumulating the pilot symbols and the non-pilot symbols and then estimating signal power by calculating a weighted sum of the accumulated pilot and non-pilot symbols. In this manner, a more accurate estimate of the power of the received signal can be obtained.
