摘要:
A method of frequency estimation for a GSM communications system is disclosed. First, the a frequency control channel data burst is received and downsampled into a plurality of subsets. Then, the subsets are filtered using an auto-regressive filter. The filtered subsets are then correlated and summed to determine a parameter r. The estimated frequency is calculated based upon the parameter r.

One of the common channels of the GSM system is the paging channel (PCH) for alerting the mobile station of an incoming call. The PCH message is scattered among four bursts as a result of coding, interleaving, and mapping processes before transmission. It is a waste of power for a handset to turn on and analyze all four bursts if the PCH message is a dummy one. Ideally, a handset needs to be able to make a determination whether a PCH message is a dummy one in as short of a time as possible and, if it is, turn off the power. Embodiments of this invention include methods and apparatus for enabling a handset to make this determination by merely analyzing the first received burst. Since most of the PCH messages are dummy ones, the proposed methods will cause noticeable savings in the power consumption of the GSM handsets.

A channel optimization system for use with a communications channel and method of separating and encoding signals associated with the communications channel. In one embodiment, the channel optimization system includes an assorter that receives first and second signals having disparate transmission characteristics and selects one of the first and second signals. The channel optimization system also includes a translator, coupled to the assorter, that encodes the selected one of the first and second signals into a symbol representation as a function of a transmission characteristic associated therewith.

An adaptive frequency correction burst detector for GSM handset systems in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The detector uses a bandpass filter to filter the complex received samples to generate a first filtered output r(n). The first filtered output is then applied to a notch filter for the notch filter to adaptively generate a second filtered output y(n). An error calculation unit is used for calculating an error signal based on the difference between the second filtered output y(n) and a desired signal d(n), which is zero in the case of a notch filter. A notch filter coefficient updating unit is used for adaptively updating the notch filter using a least-mean-square algorithm. Then an error power is estimated based on the second filtered output y(n), while the signal power is estimated based on the first filtered output r(n). The power ratio between the two power estimates is compared to a predetermined threshold and if the ratio is below the threshold for a predetermined duration, then the system has detected the FCB signal.

The present invention provides a pre-emphasis selection method, digital signal processing module and digital communication system that use computations based on channel spectrum measurements for efficient, non-complex determination of a pre-emphasis filter index. By avoiding the complex computations, a near optimal selection of a pre-emphasis filter with robust performance is achieved with relatively simple calculations.

A simplified transition detector identifies phase reversal without relying upon complex correlation relationships or trellis techniques. Two correlation signals are obtained using tones with a phase difference of .pi./2. Zero-crossing information on the two correlation signals is used to detect phase reversal.
