摘要:
A method and device for estimating a target chip index value in a code-division multiple access receiver. The receiver receives signals from a transmitter that uses a plurality of transmitted chips for data transmission through a plurality of multipath channels. As each channel is expressible as a channel impulse response at a given instant in time, the impulse response can be sampled and the samples indexed by a plurality of delay sample indices. The target chip index value can be determined based on the first moment of the delay sample indices over an impulse response.
摘要:
A delay estimation method and a receiver in a radio system. Signals originate from one or several transmitters and propagate along several paths. One path (73-77) is selected at a time for estimation. The least squares minimization between the received signal and the code bank model is solved path by path (73-77) and delay by delay. The delay of only one selected path is changed at a time. Using the minimization results the delays of the other paths (73-77) remain unchanged. The minimization results establish the delay with the minimized result at most equal to the results for other delays. This delay is used as the constant value of the path (73-77) when the delays of the other paths are searched. The method provides the delays of all the paths (73-77) of all users simultaneously without information on user symbols or attenuation coefficients of the channel.
摘要:
A reception method and a receiver in a cellular radio system, the receiver comprising means for measuring the power level of each received signal. To detect the received signal in an advantageous manner, the receiver of the invention comprises means for dividing the received signals into several groups having at least two signals each, and means for detecting the signals in each groups from the received transmission simultaneously.
摘要:
The invention relates to a reception method and a receiver comprising means where a received signal is sampled, and means where the mutual delays of the transmissions contained in the signal and the strengths of the transmissions are measured from the received signal, said transmissions originating in one or more transmitters. In order to ensure reception of high quality, the receiver according to the invention comprises means, the input of which, is the sampled signal, and in which an estimate is calculated from the samples for each desired transmission on the basis of all samples which have arrived during a certain monitoring period, and that whenever a new sample arrives at the input of the means, the means updates the calculated estimates on the basis of the new sample.
