摘要:
A communication system supports H-ARQ, AMC, active set handoff, and scheduling functions in a distributed fashion by allowing a mobile station (MS) to signal control information corresponding to an enhanced reverse link transmission to Active Set base transceiver stations (BTSs) and by allowing the BTSs to perform control functions that were supported by an RNC in the prior art. The communication system allows time and SIR-based H-ARQ flush functions at the BTSs during soft handoff (SHO), provides an efficient control channel structure to support scheduling, H-ARQ, AMC functions for an enhanced reverse link, or uplink, channel in order to maximize throughput, and enables an MS in a SHO region to choose a scheduling assignment corresponding to a best TFRI out of multiple assignments it receives from multiple active set BTS. As a result, the enhanced uplink channel can be scheduled during SHO without any explicit communication between the BTSs.

A system and method for initializing a system communication without previous reservations for random access channel (RACH) access includes a first step of defining at least one spread sequence derived from at least one constant amplitude zero autocorrelation sequence. A next step includes combining the spread sequence with a Walsh code to form an extended spread sequence. A next step includes using the extended spread sequence in a preamble for a RACH. A next step includes sending the preamble to a BTS for acquisition. A next step includes monitoring for a positive acquisition indicator from the BTS. A next step includes scheduling the sending of a RACH message. A next step includes sending the RACH message.

A wireless communication system (100) and method for providing high speed uplink packet access from user equipment (128, 130) to a base station (114, 116, 118, 120). Each of the user equipment (128, 130) and the base station (114, 116, 118, 120) includes a transmitter (1106, 1206), a receiver (1104, 1204), and a controller (1108, 1208) coupled to the transmitter and the receiver. Data packets are transmitted from the user equipment (128, 130) to the base station (114, 116, 118, 120). Control information, corresponding to the data packets, is transmitted from the base station (114, 116, 118, 120) to the user equipment (128, 130). The control information includes at least a control channel acknowledgement field in an absolute grant channel assigned to the user equipment (128, 130). The controller (1108) of the user equipment (128, 130) is configured to utilize the channelization code(s) in response to handoff and/or entering an active channel state.

A communications network (200) for enhanced uplink of High-Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) in 3G wireless communications includes a mobile transceiver unit (605). The mobile transceiver unit is operable to use a channel prediction to estimate a power margin of one or more dedicated channels, predict a power margin for an acknowledgement transmission based on transmission parameters, reserve a power margin for a channel quality indicator (CQI) transmission, and determine an Enhanced Transport Format Combination (E-TFC) for an uplink data packet transmission based on an available power margin. The communications network also includes a communications network node (610) operable to transmit a power control signal to the mobile transceiver unit.

摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a manner in which feedback from remote units (120-122) involved in a broadcast/multicast service session can be obtained using shared wireless resources and/or shared signaling sequences. Having feedback information from at least some of the remote units involved in the session enables the network equipment (101) to dynamically manage the session and potentially improve the performance of the session. Moreover, utilizing shared wireless resources and/or shared signaling sequences may reduce the overhead cost of obtaining the feedback as compared to utilizing dedicated resources.
摘要:
A communication system is provided that dynamically allocates power to a Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (an MBMS service). In response to determining to establish a Point-to-Multipoint (PTM) communication channel to multiple user equipment (UEs), the communication service assigns the PTM communication channel to the MBMS service, determines a power requirement associated with each user equipment (UE) of the multiple UEs based on a handover quality measurement associated with the UE to produce multiple power requirements, and allocates a power level to the PTM communication channel based on the multiple power requirements. The communication system further dynamically adjusts the allocated power based on a handover quality measurement associated with a UE of the multiple UEs that is received during provision of the MBMS service.
摘要:
A communication system optimizes cell edge performance and spectral efficiency by determining an adaptive power control parameter based on system performance metrics measured by a serving Node B and further measured by, and reported to the serving Node B by, neighboring Node B's. The adaptive power control parameter is then used to determine an uplink transmit power of a user equipment (UE) served by the serving Node B. The uplink transmit power may be determined by the Node B and then conveyed to the UE, or the Node B may broadcast the adaptive power control parameter to the UE and the UE may self-determine the uplink transmit power. In addition, as a frequency reuse factor of one has been proposed for such communication systems, interference levels may be even further improved by employment of an intra-site interference cancellation scheme in the sectors serviced by the Node B.
