Joint detection of data signals occurs in a code division, multiple access (CDMA) communication system as follows: A digital signal processor (315) first extracts a midamble portion of transmitted signal vectors and generates an estimate of the channel response corresponding to each user-antenna pair using a channel estimator (401). In the preferred embodiment, each user's transmission within the communication system comprises either the type-1 or type-2 burst with varying midamble and guard period durations. Next, a convolution processor (402) forms the convolution of the user signature sequence with the channel impulse response estimate associated with each user and each of the antennas (308)-(310). A detector (403) utilizes the set of vectors and creates a set of sub-system matrices and solves the sub-system matrices to extract symbol information from an individual remote unit's transmission. Finally, the detector (403) outputs symbol information for subsequent infrastructure processing.

A code division multiple access (CDMA) communication system reduces system self-interference and enhances system capacity by making rate selection decisions for individual speech encoders in concert with other speech encoders. The system utilizes perpetually weighted error metrics (401) as input into a rate controller (404) which determines and provides selected rates (402) back to the encoders (105). The system provides optimum voice quality and system capacity in that it allows specific encoders to decrease their rate, which improves capacity, as necessary while allowing other encoders to maintain their rates. This prevents needless degradation in voice quality at those times when system capacity needs to be temporarily increased.

A multimode wireless communication terminal that communicates using a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT determines whether the first and second RATs are in an active state, and modifies a maximum transmit power limit of the first RAT based on a voice codec rate of a voice transmission on the second RAT when the first RAT and the second RAT are in the active state concurrently, wherein the second RAT is conducting the voice transmission in the active state. In an alternative embodiment, the limit is modified based on a transmit power status of the second RAT or on a transmission type of the first RAT.

A wireless communication infrastructure entity including a transceiver coupled to a controller configured to generate parity bits based on an information word. The controller is also configured to encode the parity bits based on a communication configuration, e.g., symbol information, wherein the encoded parity bits are combined with the information word for transmission by the transceiver. A user terminal in receipt of the information word includes a controller configured to determine the communication configuration based on a set of configuration indicator bits used to encode the parity bits.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for jointly decoding a first and second message is disclosed. The signaling scenario illustrated by FIG. 1 and using the codeword properties defined herein, the various embodiments may combine multiple messages under the hypothesis that the value of a message portion corresponding any subsequent observed transmission is different. Accordingly a first buffer may store the first observed message frame (509) and a second buffer may sum the LLR's of subsequent observed frames (513).In the embodiments disclosed, two decoding hypotheses are required only; a first where the two buffers are combined directly (513) and a second where the difference codeword bit LLR's of the first buffer (509) are inverted before combining with those of the second buffer (519). A maximum of N transmissions is allowed by the receiver (523), after which a decoding failure is declared.
