    摘要: A multiple access, spread spectrum communication system and method for providing high capacity communications to, from, or between a plurality of system users, using code-division-spread-spectrum communication signals. The communication system uses means for providing marginal isolation between user communication signals. The marginal isolation is provided by generating simultaneous multiple steerable beams; using an omni-directional antenna with polarization enhancement; using power control devices to adjust the output power for user generated communication signals either in response to their input activity level, or in accordance with a minimum allowable power for maintaining a communication link. The communication system can also employ a means for transmitting a predetermined pilot chip sequence contiguous with the code-division-spread-spectrum communication signals.In further embodiments the communication system employs a plurality of user terminals linked to each other or to other services through one or more terrestrial or satellite repeaters. Multiple satellite repeaters are operable in a new communication mode to obtain further gains in signal isolation.

    摘要: The invention is a CDMA decresting technology that reduces or eliminates peaks in the CDMA signal. The CDMA technology generates a correction signal in response to peaks in the CDMA signal that exceed a value. The value typically corresponds to the maximum power level of a power amplifier. The CDMA technology combines the correction signal with the CDMA signal to generate a decrested CDMA signal with reduced peaks. In some examples of the invention, the CDMA technology processes polar coordinate representations of the quadrature components of the CDMA signal to generate the correction signal. Using the invention, the power amplifier in a CDMA base station can operate at increased power levels without exceeding out-of-band signal power limitations. As a result, the base station operates more efficiently and with a greater range or capacity.

    摘要: A system, method and computer program product that uses an expected output power level to compensate for slowly changing unintentional power fluctuations in a signal transmission system such that the actual transmitted power matches a calculated desired transmit power. Digital expected power data is sampled and filtered to generate an expected output power level. Actual output data is sampled and filtered to generate an actual output power level. A comparator periodically compares the expected output power level to the actual output power level. Preferably, the comparator first removes a correction value from the actual output power level that was added to the transmit signal to correct for unintentional power fluctuations. The resultant ratio or difference is sent to a correction module which generates a correction value therefrom. The correction value is converted to a dB quantity and added to existing correction values.

    摘要: When one vocoding system is coupled to another vocoding system, a tandem arrangement results. The tandem configuration results in voice quality degradation as speech is encoded and decoded, then encoded and decoded again. One reason for the degradation is that postfiltering performed at the output of the speech decoding process introduces distortions in the spectral content of the reconstructed speech as compared to the original speech. The present invention prevents the degradation due to the use of postfilters by modifying the postfiltering within the vocoders where a tandem configuration exists. A detection code is embedded within the data signal to indicate the existence of a tandem configuration. If the detection code is received at a vocoder, modified vocoding is established within the vocoders to prevent the degradation due to the postfiltering.

    摘要: A packet switching architecture provides for a switch system comprised of a cellular base station in communication with the PSTN through a switch. Data packets are routed through the switch system as necessary to effect communication between the public switched telephone network (PSTN) and mobile radiotelephones disposed within the cellular coverage area surrounding the base station. A packet interconnection subsystem operates to transfer data packets between a plurality of interface ports, to which are coupled a corresponding plurality of signal lines. Within the interconnection subsystem, one or more distribution/consolidation (DISCO) interface units are mutually coupled together through a central router unit. Each DISCO interface unit is configured to consolidate the data packets received through at least two signal ports onto a consolidation bus, as well as to distribute the addressed data packets from a distribution bus to two or more of ports. In a preferred implementation, the interconnection subsystem is realized so as to efficiently provide redundancy among the interface units within the interconnection network.

    摘要: In a communications network, a remote unit communicates with another user via at least one base station. The network has a plurality of base stations controlled by a mobile switching center. Each base station of the plurality of base stations transmits an identifying pilot signal. To defining an area in which communication between a set of the base stations and the remote unit is forbidden, an auxiliary antenna transmits a silent region identifying pilot signal. The remote unit measures a signal strength of a set of identifying pilot signals corresponding to a neighbor set of base stations and measures a signal strength of the silent region identifying pilot signal. The remote unit sends a pilot strength measurement report to the mobile switching center via a first base station with which the remote unit has established communication. A handoff of the established communication between the remote unit and the first base station is initiated if the pilot strength measurement report comprises an entry corresponding to the silent region identifying pilot signal.
