Abstract:
A method for compensating for sleep clock slew is disclosed. The method may conserve battery power. The method includes operating in a discontinuous receive mode. A measured sleep clock slew is determined. Discontinuous receive mode parameters are adjusted based on the measured sleep clock slew. Discontinuous receive mode wake-up procedures are performed. The discontinuous receive mode parameters may include a sleep time and a search time. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for selectively invoking receive diversity during power-up/initial acquisition and out of service modes are disclosed. A method can include selectively enabling receive diversity based on an initial acquisition attempt by one of the receive chains in a wireless device having multiple receive chains. A method can also include enabling receive diversity based on a predetermined list of channels to be acquired. A predetermined list of channels is a subset of a plurality of channels that may be acquired. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure propose methods and apparatus for low complexity soft-in soft-out detection that divide a plurality of received symbols into a plurality of groups of symbols and performs preprocessing on the symbols in each group to suppress interference from other groups. The preprocessing may utilize a priori information for one or more symbols in one or more groups that are not yet detected, and/or a posteriori information for one or more symbols in one or more groups that are already detected and/or decoded. The preprocessed symbols may then be detected using a soft-in soft-out detection algorithm.
Abstract:
Provided is automatic gain control (AGC) in which a feedback filter has a parameter that is changed based on information regarding data-packet boundaries. In one representative embodiment, the bandwidth of the filter temporarily is increased, or the time constant of the AGC filter temporarily is decreased, within a vicinity of each actual or potential packet boundary.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for multi-user detection in a multiple access system are provided. In one aspect, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises a processing unit configured to process received chips into received symbols for a plurality of users and a computation unit configured to compute a multi-user matrix using a Hadamard matrix, wherein the multi-user matrix relates user symbols for the plurality of users to the received symbols. The apparatus further comprises a detection unit configured to detect the user symbols for the plurality of users using the received symbols and the computed multi-user matrix.
Abstract:
A method and system is disclosed for detecting indicators using a multi-stage and multi-threshold detection mechanism so that a mobile terminal can be removed from an idle mode appropriately.
Abstract:
A mobile station comprising a decoder circuit and a control circuit. The decoder circuit may be configured to retrieve mask information from a packet data control channel. The control circuit may be configured to (i) determine whether the mask information is valid and (ii) when the mask information is valid, update a current mask of the mobile station with the mask information.
