    摘要: A method and apparatus for demodulating data symbols transmitted through a fading communication channel. A plurality of first predetermined data symbols, a plurality of unknown data symbols, and a plurality of second predetermined data symbols are sequentially received. The received pluralities of data symbols are stored, and first and second sets of reference signals from the stored pluralities of first and second predetermined data symbols, respectively, are determined. The stored unknown data symbols based on the first set of reference signals are forward-demodulated, beginning with unknown symbols received nearer the first predetermined data symbols. The stored unknown data symbols based on the second set of reference signals are backward-demodulated, beginning with the unknown data symbols received nearer the second predetermined data symbols. Quality values indicative of demodulation qualities of the forward- and backward-demodulated data symbols are determined. The quality values are compared, and either the forward- or backward-demodulated data symbols are selected based on the comparison of quality values.

    摘要: A TDMA RF received signal is demodulated by first being filtered with a fixed transversal filter having a characteristic selected for matching a fixed square root raised cosine pulse characteristic of the received signal. The filtered signal is then adaptively filtered for compensating for a time varying impulse response of the channel. The adaptive filtering is performed initially during a synchronizing portion (preamble) of the filtered signal in accordance with a fast recursive least squares algorithm. Subsequent filter adaptation to a data portion of the filtered signal is accomplished in accordance with a computationally less expensive normalized least mean square procedure. The adaptive filter repetitively applies a modified Viterbi algorithm to blocks of 2D symbols, such that D symbols are released for adapting the adaptive filter means during the data portion of the filtered signal and the signal. The released symbols are also employed for adapting elements required in computing a metric for the modified Viterbi algorithm and the reconstructed signal used to form an error signal that drives the adaptation algorithms.

    摘要: An adaptive Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) (40) for a digital cellular mobile radio channel demodulator (30) employs a Complex Fast-Kalman Adaptation algorithm (56) to track channel variations. Sensitivity to sample timing jitter is reduced by providing the DFE with fractionally spaced feed-forward taps (50'). Deficiencies inherent in using a reduced precision implementation are overcome by adding a dither signal to sets of operations in the algorithm, the dither signal comprising an appropriately selected Gaussian random variable. For small delay spreads of approximately one third of a symbol duration or less, a resulting degradation in Bit Error Rate is avoided by switching the DFE out of the circuit or by reducing the number of taps of the DFE. For delay spreads of less than 40 microseconds and greater than approximately 10 microseconds, a (2,3) fractionally spaced DFE provides an adequate compromise between complexity and performance.

    摘要: A method for the reduction of synchronous fading effects in a time-diversity multiple-access communications system, in which the data to/from a particular user is to appear in a particular assigned slot, varies the position of the time slot assigned to that particular user, so that the slot has a different position in each successive frame in which that assigned slot appears. The position may be set relative to a frame feature, such as its start time and the like. Selected-schedule patterns may be used, with the pattern either being preset at the various stations or being sent to the stations prior to use, as part of a preamble, in-band supervisory signaling and the like.
