    摘要: Multi-path effects are common in mobile communications. When coupled with spread-spectrum signals utilizing spreading code sequences, detection of more than one multi-path signal becomes a necessity in order to output a clean signal with little loss. In accord with the invention, a spread-spectrum sliding matched-filter searcher system comprises a partial matched-filter that receives the input spread-spectrum signal. The searcher matches samples of the input signal with a tap length m of the reference code and produces a first correlation value. The first correlation value is compared to a first threshold. When it equals or exceeds the first threshold, the first correlation value is integrated to produce a second correlation value. This second value is compared with a second threshold, which if met signifies the detection of the multi-path signal. The process is repeated until all significant multi-path signals are detected. This design of the present invention is flexible in nature because the searcher can be programmed to act like a matched-filter, a correlator, or a combination of both while significantly improving the search time and reducing the amount of hardware and complexity characteristic of a matched-filter.

    摘要: A multi-channel spread-spectrum system separates a data stream, for example from a convolutional encoder and an interleaver, into sub-channel data-sequence signals. For each sub-channel data-sequence signal, m bits are translated to one code of a unique set of orthogonal chip-sequence signals. The other k bits of the same sub-channel data-sequence signal are translated to a distinct phasor. Each phasor is used to modulate the respective chip-sequence signal. A complex-signal combiner combines the real and imaginary components of all the phase-modulated chip-sequence signals into in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) spread-spectrum multi-channel signals, which are spread by a cell-site specific signature-sequence. The receiver decorrelates the received spread-spectrum signal, preferably with a bank of matched filter (MF) joint-detectors, to recover the bits from all the spread-spectrum sub-channel signals for remultiplexing into the transmitted data stream. The multi-channel spread-spectrum system supports constant data rate throughout the cell by maintaining a large processing gain, at the multiplexed sub-channel data sequency level, thus a code-reuse-one type spread-spectrum system can be deployed with the aid of power control.

    摘要: A sectorized smart antenna system includes multiple sector antennas with a software control algorithm for flexible association of physical antennas to a logical serving sector to provide signal coverage in a particular region of the cell served by the base station. The control algorithm can adapt to different situations without requiring any, or only very limited, physical hardware changes to reconfigure a base station to balance the traffic load throughout the cell. The smart antenna system and method includes measuring and recording a mobile station's signal strengths and its rate of changes received by an antenna in a serving sector relative to other antennas in either the same serving sector or different serving sector to determine the mobile station location and its movement, determining when a threshold signal level is reached, and handing-off the mobile station to an adjacent antenna, serving sector, or cell.
