Disclosed is a method of detecting signals at a receiver of a communication system with a multiple input multiple output antenna. With the signal detection method, a square of the distance between a received signal vector and a channel status-considered transmission symbol vector is calculated first, and the square of the distance is then classified into first and second components. The first component is minimized to calculate a plurality of first soft symbol estimates. A solution set of the first component is calculated on the basis of the plurality of first soft symbol estimates. The second component is minimized to calculate a plurality of second soft symbol estimates. A solution set of the second component is calculated on the basis of the plurality of second soft symbol estimates. A final solution set is calculated by doing the sum of the first component solution set and the second component solution.

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method of acquiring initial synchronization of a terminal in a mobile communication system. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, one or more auto-correlation values of a preamble constituting a signal that is received from a base station are calculated. Averages of the calculated auto-correlation values according to samples are calculated, and then a peak value is detected among the calculated values. Then, a cell search is performed on the basis of the detected peak value, and a peak value from the result of the cell search is regularized. Then, the regularized peak value is compared with a predetermined reference value such that it is checked whether synchronization of a signal that has been searched is accurate or not. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a value obtained by regularizing a result of a cell search is compared with a reference value, and it is checked again whether an accurate start point of a frame is detected or not on the basis of a result of the comparison. Accordingly, false alarm rates can be reduced.

A terminal of a communication system includes a power amplifier, an open-loop power controller, a gain controller, a modulator, and a digital/analog converter. The power amplifier amplifies transmission power of a transmission signal. The open-loop power controller measures a received signal strength to control the transmission power, and increases a gain of the power amplifier according to the received signal strength. The gain controller sets a power concentration gain and applies the power concentration gain to the transmission signal when the gain of the power amplifier is maximized. The modulator modulates the transmission signal. The digital/analog converter converts an input signal to an analog signal. The gain controller applies the power concentration gain to the trans mission signal modulated by the modulator, and transmits the power concentration gain to the digital/analog converter.

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for composing a received symbol signal modulated with a bit reflected Gray code into bit information. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a positive integer of the received symbol signal having bits is assigned according to the Gray mapping rule, and a sign is determined. A value that is indicative of an arrangement of the bits constituting the received symbol signal is calculated. A boundary value in at least one bit group consisting of the bits constituting the received symbol signal is acquired, and a difference from an absolute value of the received symbol signal is calculated. The received symbol signal is converted into information per bit using a value of the received symbol signal based on the positive integer and the determined sign, the value that is indicative of the bit arrangement, and the difference from the absolute value. Therefore, it is possible to reduce complexity in bitwise decomposition for an iterative decoder inevitably used in a receiver.

The present invention relates to an automatic gain control apparatus and method in a mobile communication system. According to the automatic gain control apparatus of an embodiment of the invention, when downlink signals include both directional beam signals and beam signals traveling in all directions due to the antenna system, different reception gain reference values are used according to whether downlink signals including only the beam signals traveling in all directions are received or downlink signals including the directional beam signals are received, thereby controlling the gain of the received signal. When the downlink signals including the directional beam signals are received, the automatic gain control apparatus can appropriately control the gain of the received signal on the basis of the directional beam signals to prevent saturation of the received signal. Further, in a place where the channel condition between the terminal and the base station is bad, such as the boundaries between the cells, the reception gain is controlled on the basis of the reception gain reference value that is set in correspondence with the beam signal traveling in all directions, which makes it possible to reduce the loss of a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
