    摘要: A solution for extending the cell range and in particular for a solution for handling timing alignment is presented herein. The solution comprises determining a distance between user equipment and a radio access network node. User equipment located at a distance related to a pre defined timing advance value is scheduled to handle uplink communication so as to arrive at a later time slot for reducing the risk of conflicting with other transmissions towards the access node.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for accessing a wireless communication system, and for processing random access attempts. A mobile communication device detects random-access information transmitted by a base station, transmits a random-access preamble to the base station according to the random-access information, and receives a random-access response from the base station. The random-access response includes at least an allocation of uplink resources to be used for the next step in the random access procedure. The mobile device also selects a reference signal sequence index from a pre-determined set of sequence indexes, and transmits a first message to the base station using the uplink resource allocation provided in the random-access response. The first message includes a device identifier and a first demodulation reference signal derived from a base reference sequence shifted according to the selected sequence index.

    摘要: In one aspect, the present invention improves Turbo equalization and/or soft interference cancellation processing in communication receivers by providing an efficient and accurate technique to compute the second moment of a received symbol, e.g., an interfering symbol, as a function of the expected bit values of only those bits in the symbol that are magnitude-controlling bits according to a defined modulation constellation. Advantageously, the expected bit values in at least one embodiment are computed using a LUT that maps bit LLRs to corresponding hyperbolic tangent function values. Further, the expected symbol value is computed as a linear function of terms comprising the expected bit values and the soft symbol variance is efficiently computed from the second moment and the expected symbol value squared. This simplified processing reduces receiver complexity, particularly in the context of modulation constellations having non-constant magnitudes, and thus saves power and/or improves design economics.

    摘要: The present invention relates to channel decoding and provides ways and means for improved channel decoding of data frames. The frame has been channel encoded and transmitted to a receiver. The frame includes a part with information that is unknown to the receiver and another part with information for which the receiver generates at least one data hypothesis predicting its information content. The receiver performs a hypothesis-based decoding of the received encoded frame, wherein the at least one data hypothesis is used to improve a probability of successful decoding. The invention may advantageously be used to improve decoding of frames containing short control messages with fill bits, e.g. acknowledgement messages.

    摘要: The present invention relates to channel decoding and provides ways and means for improved channel decoding of data frames. The frame has been channel encoded and transmitted to a receiver (3a). The frame includes a part (51, 53) with information that is unknown to the receiver and another part (54, 55) with information for which the receiver generates at least one data hypothesis predicting its information content. The receiver performs a hypothesis-based decoding (149) of the received encoded frame, wherein the at least one data hypothesis is used to improve a probability of successful decoding. The invention may advantageously be used to improve decoding of frames containing short control messages with fill bits, e.g. acknowledgement messages (17).
