    摘要: A method and an apparatus for quick retransmission of signals in a communication system are disclosed. A transmitting terminal, e.g., a base station, transmits signals in a form of packets to a receiving terminal, e.g., a subscriber station. The receiving terminal determines if the packet was intended for the receiving terminal, and if so, the receiving terminal demodulates the packet. The receiving terminal then computes a quality metric of the packet, and compares the computed quality metric with a quality metric contained in the packet. If the quality metrics match, the packet is declared correctly received, and is forwarded for further processing. If the quality metrics fail to match, the receiving terminal sends a request for retransmission of the packet. The transmitting terminal determines which packet needs to be retransmitted based on the request for retransmission. The transmitting terminal then schedules the packet for retransmission.

    摘要: A method and an apparatus for reducing power consumption of a decoder in a communication system are disclosed. In a communication system communicating a packet, the packet can be arranged among slots of a communication channel so that each slot following the first slot contains redundant bits of the packet with respect to the first slot. A receiving station estimates quality metric of a received slot, determines a quality metric threshold, and delimits an interval in accordance with the modified quality metric threshold. If the estimated quality metric is outside of the interval, the segment is decoded. The decoding process comprises delimiting a plurality of intervals in accordance with the quality metric threshold, associating each of the plurality of intervals with one of a plurality of parameters, determining an interval from the plurality of intervals into which the estimated quality metric belongs; and decoding the received signal for a number of iterations equal to the one of a plurality of parameters associated with the determined interval. In the course of the decoding process, a stopping criterion is evaluated, and the decoding process is terminated in accordance with the stopping criterion.

    摘要: Techniques for deriving sample timing for multiple signal instances received on multiple antennas for a given propagation path. In one scheme, a DLL is maintained for each path, and each DLL tracks the timing of the best signal instance for the assigned path. In another scheme, a DLL is maintained for each path, and each DLL tracks the average timing of the multiple signal instances for the assigned path. To reduce timing jitter, the SINR of a signal instance may be estimated for a number of different time offsets. The loop filter for the DLL is initially updated in the normal manner. If a change in the time offset used for the sample timing is detected, then the SINRs for the new and prior offsets are compared. The new time offset is used if the associated SINR is better. Otherwise, the prior time offset is retained and used.

    摘要: A frequency-timing control loop comprising (1) a frequency control loop to acquire and track the frequency of a given signal instance in a received signal and (2) a timing control loop to acquire and track the timing of the same signal instance. The timing control loop processes data samples for the received signal to provide a first control indicative of timing error in the data samples for the signal instance. The frequency control loop includes (1) a frequency discriminator used to derive a second control indicative of frequency error in the data samples for the signal instance, and (2) a loop filter used to filter the first and second controls to provide a third control. This third control is used to adjust the frequency and phase of a periodic signal, which is used (directly or indirectly) to downconvert and digitize the received signal to provide the data samples.

    摘要: A method and apparatus that determines how much power to allocate to each of a plurality of reverse link power control (RLPC) Channels to be transmitted from a base station, based upon data rate control (DRC) messages transmitted to the base station. Historical information is used to determine the quality of the Forward Link over which the RLPC is to be transmitted. If the history of the DRCs received indicates that the remote station to which the RLPC Channel is to be directed has not transmitted a DRC recently, then the base station allocates power to the RLPC Channels based upon information provided to the base station in DRCs that were received by the base station, but that were directed to other base stations. Accordingly, the base station can allocate power among the RLPC Channels without having received explicit information as to the quality of the Forward Link between the base station and every remote station intended to receive the information on the RLPC Channels.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling the transmit power of a plurality of mobile radio units transmitting to a base station in a mobile radio telephone system. For each of the mobile units in the system, a signal strength estimate is measured at the base station based on reverse link signals sent from the mobile units and received at the base station, wherein each signal strength estimate is associated with one of the mobile units. The signal strength estimate associated with each mobile unit is compared to a threshold. Next, for each mobile unit in the plurality of mobile units, if the signal strength estimate associated with the mobile unit is greater than the threshold, then a power control bit having a first value is assigned to the mobile unit; conversely, if the signal strength estimate associated with the mobile unit is less than the threshold, then a power control bit having a second value is assigned to the mobile unit. A variable gain that is a function of the difference between the signal strength estimate associated with the mobile unit and the threshold is next applied to each power control bit. The variable gain applied to each power control bit increases as the magnitude of the difference between the signal strength estimate associated with the mobile unit and the threshold increases. Each gain-adjusted power control bit is then transmitted to the mobile units.
