Abstract:
Transmission of random access preamble structures within a cellular wireless network is based on the use of cyclic shifted constant amplitude zero autocorrelation (“CAZAC”) sequences to generate the random access preamble signal. A pre-defined set of sequences is arranged in a specific order. Within the predefined set of sequences is an ordered group of sequences that is a proper subset of the pre-defined set of sequences. Within a given cell, up to 64 sequences may need to be signaled. In order to minimize the associated overhead due to signaling multiple sequences, only one logical index is transmitted by a base station serving the cell and a user equipment within the cell derives the subsequent indexes according to the pre-defined ordering. Each sequence has a unique logical index. The ordering of sequences is identified by the logical indexes of the sequences, with each logical index uniquely mapped to a generating index. When a UE needs to transmit, it produces a second sequence using the received indication of the logical index of the first sequence and an auxiliary value and then produces a transmission signal by modulating the second sequence. The auxiliary value is selected from one of two sets based on a set indicator broadcast by the eNB
Abstract:
This invention is a method for preamble detection with estimation of UE timing advance (TA) and channel quality information (CQI) which uses a sliding window to detect the preamble and estimate user timing advance and channel quality information. The window length is set to the cyclic prefix length of data transmission. A preamble detection threshold is computed semi-analytically according to noise sample statistics.
Abstract:
An antenna system includes first and second antennas that are arranged on a substrate and that include an arc-shaped element having a concave side and a convex side, a conducting element that extends substantially radially from a center of said concave side, and a U-shaped element having a base portion with a center that communicates with said conducting element and two side portions that extend from ends of said base portion towards said concave side. Third and fourth antennas are arranged on said substrate and include an inner ring and an outer ring that is concentric to said inner ring.
Abstract:
A method of and system for rateless source coding are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing a set of low-density parity check (LDPC) codes, each of which accepts a range of data input lengths and a range of target compression rates; identifying a data input having a data input length; and identifying a desired compression rate. The method comprises the further steps of selecting one of said LDPC codes based on said data input length and desired compression rate; encoding the data input, using the selected LDPC code, to generate a sequence of data values; and puncturing some of said encoded data values to achieve the desired compression rate. Preferably, the encoding step includes the steps of generating a syndrome and a parity sequence from the data input, puncturing the generated parity sequence, and mixing a remaining portion of the data input with the punctuated parity sequence.

Additionally, the base station sub-system also includes a transmitter configured to signal at least one index of the random access configurations and a random access receiver balancing in time the processing load of the random access detection of different cells served by the base station.
Abstract:
A method and system for formally verifying designs having elements from more than a single design domain is described. An example system allows formal verification of a design containing mixed analog and digital subparts. The system may use different proof engines to solve an appropriate sub-partition of the entire design, and may provide a framework for translating between the different domains to create a unified result. For example, a digital proof engine may be used for a digital only subpart, while an analog proof engine may be used for an analog only subpart. The system may use the partitioning results to determine translators between the various domains, and an order in which the proof engines are applied.
Abstract:
A method of decoding linear block code uses an iterative message passing algorithm with a binary image of a parity check matrix of the linear block code, wherein the parity check matrix is adapted from one iteration to another based on the reliabilities of bits in the linear block code. The adaptation involves reducing a submatrix corresponding to the less reliable bits in the linear block code to a sparse nature before applying the message passing algorithm in each iteration. An apparatus that performs the method is also provided and several variations of the algorithm are also provided.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described for dynamic frozen bits of polar codes for early termination and performance improvement. A wireless device may receive a signal comprising a codeword encoded using a polar code. The wireless device may perform decoding of the codeword including at least: parity check of a first subset of decoding paths for making a decision on early termination of decoding of the codeword based on dynamic frozen bits, and generating path metrics for a second subset of the decoding paths that each pass the parity check based on the dynamic frozen bits, and performing error detection on a bit sequence corresponding to one of the second subset of the decoding paths based at part on error detection bits and the generated path metrics. The wireless device may process the information bits based on a result of the decoding.
