    摘要: Aspects of the disclosure permit agile acquisition of a location service in a device. In one aspect of such acquisition, the device can rely on location signals available globally in order to determine a region associated with the device, and in response to determination of the region, the device can acquire service information representative or otherwise indicative of the location service based at least on the region. In another aspect, the device can be configured to consume the location service. The agility of such acquisition can stem from the absence of (i) scanning for location services associated with the area in which the device is present and/or (ii) a predefined pool of location services established in production of the device.

    摘要: A method and apparatus provide for soft handoff operation of at least a first signal transmitted according to a first communication standard (IS-95B) and a second signal transmitted according to a second communication standard (IS-95C). A mobile station (104) initially receives the first signal, detects presence of a pilot signal, measures pilot signal strength, transmits a pilot strength measurement message, fails to receive a handoff direction message after transmitting the pilot strength measurement message, searches for detecting presence of a broadcast control channel associated with the type IS-95C cell sites, measures a carrier to interference ratio of the broadcast control channel, compares the carrier to interference ratio to a threshold, if the carrier to interference ratio is above the threshold, initiates a second communication according to IS-95C standard, thus, allowing initiating a soft handoff operation by allowing the base sites to transmit information according to the IS-95B and IS-95C standards respectively via the first and second signals. MS 104 combines the first and second signals to take advantage of the soft hand-off operation.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for maximal-ratio combining of received frame data is provided. This technique increases the reliability of a communication network that includes multiple independent receivers. For example, when multiple independent receivers are not in agreement as to the received frame data (501, 502, 503), an embodiment of the invention provides a higher likelihood of correctly identifying the received frame data (501, 502, 503). A technique for determining a signal-to-noise ratio from a metric signal (504) derived from a decoder (701) in a receiver is provided. The signal-to-noise ratio may be characterized according to a polynomial estimate or stored in lookup table. The signal-to-noise ratio is used to apply a weighting (805) to “hard decision” data from the receiver to yield a weighted value (806). The weighted value is combined with weighted values from other receivers. The combined weighted values are applied to a data slicer (414) to yield received data (807).

    摘要: Method and apparatus to provide a pseudo random noise (PN) sequence having a particular code phase offset for use in a radio in a Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) radio system (100). In one embodiment, a first mask (320) is applied to shift a reference PN sequence to the assigned PN code phase (416). Upon reaching the end of the reference PN sequence, the initial state is reloaded (420) into the PN generator state register to reset the state value to its initial value, thereby producing a cyclical sequence. In a second embodiment, a first mask (622) and a second mask (624) are applied to the reference sequence produced by the PN generator state registers (620) to produce the appropriate portions of the output sequence.
