    摘要: Methods and apparatus that achieve good channel estimation without using unnecessarily complex interpolation filters are described. Adaptive interpolation filtering of a signal in a receiver includes determining at least one correlation function parameter of the channel and determining a filter configuration based on the correlation function parameter. Interpolation filtering is then performed on the signal using the determined filter configuration. The interpolation may be performed in time, where a Doppler frequency shift can serve as the correlation function parameter, or in frequency, where a root mean square or maximum delay spread can serve as the correlation function parameter, or both. A worst case signal-to-noise ratio may be used in determining the filter configuration, or, optionally, the signal-to-noise ratio can determined in real time. The filter configuration can be determined in real time or selected from one of a plurality of predetermined configurations having different complexities.

    摘要: A method of detecting a desired signal within a composite signal provides for suppression of interfering signal(s). The method, implemented in a wireless communication apparatus, for example, includes receiving the composite signal and obtaining sample values therefrom. At least some of the sample values include desired and interfering signal components. The method further includes generating an interfering signal channel estimate by: forming sample pairs for some or all of the sample values; identifying sample pairs of interest as those sample pairs in which the interfering signal component is the same; and calculating the interfering signal channel estimate as an average value determined from one or more of the sample pairs of interest. The method further includes detecting desired signal symbols from the composite signal in a joint detection process that functionally depends on the interfering signal channel estimate.

    摘要: A user equipment (UE) in a mobile communications system is operated in a manner that alleviates or avoids an overload condition in the UE. This involves operating a receiver of the UE to receive one or more data blocks via a channel. In response to a user equipment overload condition being detected, a channel quality indicator (CQI) value is reported to a serving base station, wherein the reported CQI value represents a channel quality that is lower than an actual quality of the channel. The UE is then operated in a manner that is consistent with the reported CQI value. UE overload conditions include overheating, and an inability to process received data blocks at the rate at which they are being received.

    摘要: Methods for calculating a delay spread estimate in an OFDM-receiver are described, along with computer program products and electronic apparatuses for performing the methods. The methods comprise determining a position of an FFT-window in relation to one or more OFDM-symbols of a received OFDM-signal and using the determined position to obtain a first OFDM-symbol from the received OFDM-signal. An FFT is applied to the first OFDM-symbol to produce an FFT-output signal. A frequency dependent phase rotation component of the FFT-output signal is determined and removed from the FFT-output signal. A number of zero-crossings of at least one of a real component and an imaginary component of a transfer function of a channel, over which the received OFDM-signal has been transmitted, derived from the FFT-output signal where the frequency dependent phase rotation component has been removed is determined, and a delay spread estimate is calculated based on the determined number of zero-crossings.

    摘要: According to various embodiments of the methods and apparatus disclosed herein, a “micro-sleep” functionality is selectively enabled in a wireless receiver, based on an evaluation of channel conditions, traffic characteristics, or both. When micro-sleep operation is appropriate, such as when an estimated signal-to-interference ratio is higher than a pre-determined threshold, one or more receiver circuits in a mobile station can be de-activated for a portion of a sub-frame (or other transmission-time interval) that generally carries traffic data but is not currently carrying data targeted to the mobile station. In this manner, significant power savings can be achieved, independently of or in addition to any power savings provided by existing discontinuous-receive (DRX) technologies.

    摘要: A method and corresponding apparatus for fast FFT processing of paging information includes receiving an analog signal that is converted to a first digital signal and digitally filtered through a first filter having a first bandwidth (BWA) to obtain a second digital signal. The second digital signal is stored in a buffer. The first digital signal is further digitally filtered through a second filter having a second bandwidth (BWB) to obtain a third digital signal. An FFTM processing of the third digital signal is initiated and simultaneously, an FFTN processing of the second digital signal is initiated. The FFTM processed third digital signal is then decoded and, based on the decoding of the FFTM processed third digital signal, a determination is made of whether to complete the FFTN processing of the second digital signal from the buffer.
