摘要:
A system provides transmit diversity with feedback to enhance the reception of communication signals at a wireless communication terminal. Multiple antennae are provided at the base station. The multiple antennae transmit multi-carrier information signals such as OFDM including pilot tones. The wireless communication terminal receives the pilot tones and performs processing on those tones to detect the relationship between the information signals transmitted from the various antennae of the base station. A feedback signal, based on the comparison of the pilot tones communicates back to the base station information about the channels of the respective transmit antennae to the terminals. The base station modifies the transmission processing associated with the various transmit antennae based upon the feedback signal. The modified processing improves the reception of the information signals at the wireless communication terminal.

A method and system for controlling media access in which a paging message is transmitted from a base station to a wireless station when a data packet is received for downlink transmission to the wireless station. The base station is one of a plurality of base stations and the wireless station is associated with the base station. In response to the paging message, a level of each of a plurality of pilot frequency signals is detected at the wireless station. Each pilot frequency corresponds to a downlink traffic channel and is transmitted by base stations to which the downlink traffic channel is assigned. The wireless station generates a list of preferred traffic channels based on a priority order of traffic channels and on detected levels of the pilot frequency signals, and transmits the list to the associated base station. A downlink traffic channel is assigned for downlink transmitting the received data packet to the wireless station based on the list of preferred traffic channels and updates a channel priority order list at the base station.

A decision feedback equalizer receiver that assigns a number F of feedforward filter taps and optimizes digital receiver performance in multipath channel environments, where F is an integer less than a memory length of a radio channel. The feedforward filter taps are assigned to delay times corresponding to an optimum burst timing parameter delay time, d(0), and to F-1 time delays based on "tap SNR indices." For an Uncorrelated Inter-Symbol-Interference (UISI) case, the F-1 time delays are the first F-1 rank ordered time delays are selected as the feedforward tap delay times. For a general case, a combination of the UISI case and an analytical two cluster case is obtained by selecting the first F-2 rank ordered time delays and a 2D time delay, where D is the delay time corresponding to the largest estimated tap SNR index.
摘要:
An efficient method for providing both dedicated and simulcast services over a common wireless infrastructure is described. The services can be available to a single terminal as well as to a multiplicity of terminals simultaneously. The method uses time division multiplexing and orthogonal frequency division multiple access for simulcasting information and transmitting dedicated message information from a plurality of base stations forming a cellular pattern over the same wireless frequency channel. The method comprises the steps of constructing frames for transmission by the plurality of base stations comprising control information, simulcast information and dedicated message information within predetermined time slots of the frames and allocating the simulcast information and the dedicated message information to time slots of the same frame predetermined by the control information of the frame. The underlying modulation technology used is OFDM and thereby the channel delay-dispersion is minimized.

摘要:
The present invention provides a method and system for reducing the peak to average power ratio (PAP) of a signal with low computational complexity. According to one embodiment, the present invention is applied to reduce the PAP of an OFDM signal. According to an alternative embodiment, the present invention, is applied to reduce the PAP of a CDMA signal. Rather than seeking the optimum solution, which involves significant computational complexity, the present invention provides for a number of sub-optimal techniques for reducing the PAP of an OFDM signal but with much lower computational complexity. In particular, according to one embodiment utilizing the PTS approach, an iterative technique is used to assign phase factors to each of a set of partial transmit sequences from a set of possible phase factors. Experimental results using the iterative technique showed only a slight degradation (1 dB) from the optimal approach using the same number of subblocks and subcarriers. In an alternative embodiment, which avoids feedback required by the iterative approach, a sequence of phase factors are generated randomly and assigned to each of a set of partial transmit sequences. This procedure is repeated for a pre-determined number of trials and the random sequence generating the lowest PAP is selected. In a third embodiment, a set of phase factors is generated using a structured sequence such as a Walsh sequence.

An OFDM system embeds sequence information in the transmitted signal that reduces peak average power ratio (PAP) with minimal impact on the overall system efficiency. A marker is embedded onto the transmitted information that is used to identify the combining (inversion) sequence at the receiver. In one embodiment, selected tones in a cluster are rotated when the corresponding phase factor rotates the cluster.
