Embodiments are directed to first and second OFDM pilot symbols. The first and second pilot symbols may have first and second sets, respectively, of allowed, forbidden, and active carrier frequencies. The second sets of carrier frequencies may be formed by frequency shifting the respective first sets by a predetermined frequency, such as the frequency difference between adjacent carriers. An embodiment is directed to frequency translating part of a first received pilot symbol by one carrier interval in a first direction, frequency translating part of a second received pilot symbol by one carrier interval in a second direction that is opposite from the first direction, and forming a correlation by multiplying the frequency translated parts of the first and second pilot symbols by complex conjugates of parts of the pilot symbols upon which frequency translation has not been performed, and summing the multiplication results.

In a digital broadband broadcast transmitter, digital data is time interleaved for transmission, and the time interleaved digital data is transmitted in a digital broadband broadcast transmission towards a plurality of receivers. A cellular transmitter is operated in an apparatus. In the same apparatus, the digital broadband broadcast transmission transmitted by the digital broadband broadcast transmitter is received, and the received digital broadband broadcast transmission is time deinterleaved.

The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for decoding a convolutionally encoded signal which comprises code words and the arrangement comprises a neural network which comprises a set of neurons comprising a set of inputs and an output. The received code words are applied to the inputs of the neurons, and the arrangement combines some of the inputs of the neuron in the neuron. In order to enable efficient decoding of the convolutional encoding, some of the output signals of the neural network neurons are fed back to the inputs of the neuron and the neuron multiplies at least some of the inputs of the neuron with one another before combining. The output signal of a predetermined neuron comprises an estimate of a decoded symbol.

The invention is related to a method and circuit arrangement for compensating for delayed components of a received transmission signal especially in a digital transmission system based on physical lines. The method and arrangement utilize a decision feedback equalizer, wherein the weighted sum of decisions based on earlier samples is subtracted from a sample. According to the invention, delayed components in the signal are measured in a measuring unit (11). The earlier decisions to be subtracted from a signal sample are selected from a predetermined group of consecutive decisions, and the strength of the delay component in the delay between each decision and the signal sample is used as a selection criterion. Advantageously, the equalizer according to the invention includes a selector (8) which connects some of the taps of the delay line (7) to multiplier units (9). By means of this method and arrangement it is possible to implement with a small number of multiplier units an equalizer capable of compensating for delayed components with long delays.

The invention relates to a digital radio link system and a method of adjusting the transmission power in a digital radio link system. The system comprises at a receiving end a first means for monitoring the error rate estimate and for producing a first control signal if the error rate estimate exceeds a predetermined threshold value. At a transmitting end the system comrises means for adjusting the transmission power, said means responding to the occurrence of the first control signal by increasing the transmission power. In the system of the invention there is further provided at the receiving end a second means for monitoring the rate of change of the received signal level and for producing a second control signal if the rate of change exceeds a predetermined threshold value. The means for adjusting the transmission power respond to the occurrence of the first or the second control signal by increasing the transmission power temporarily close to the maximum transmission power.

Method and system for reducing impulsive burst noise in less delayed reception in pilot based OFDM systems, especially using DVB-T standard such as Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) is provided. The method contains following steps: 1) recognition of the impulse position and possibly length in the time domain symbol, 2) blanking of those samples of the symbol where significant amount of impulse noise is present, 3) calculating the first estimate of the received signal from the blanked symbol, 4) deriving correction values for the carrier estimates by applying prior information (pilot carriers), and 5) the corrected estimate of the received symbol is derived by subtracting the correction values of step 4 from the first estimate of carriers derived in step 3. The method and arrangement allow correction of fairly long bursts of impulse noise with minor degradation only. The complexity of the scheme and the additional energy consumption are fairly low. The method provides considerably more effective more simple and less delay in broadcast data reception than previously known solutions in interfered multi-carrier signal reception.

Described herein is a method for the reception and the detection of digital signals. According to the method at least two signals (s.sub.1, s.sub.2, . . . , s.sub.M) having at least approximately the same information content are received and out of each received signal (S.sub.i) is generated by means of a phase shift one in-phase baseband signal (s.sub.iI) and one quadrature baseband signal (s.sub.iQ). All in-phase baseband signals (s.sub.iI) are summed in a first summing point (3a) and all quadrature baseband signals (s.sub.iQ) in a second summing point (3b), both sum signals (y.sub.Ik and y.sub.Qk) are fed to a detector (4) for detection and generating two detected output signals (s.sub.Ik and s.sub.Qk), and a reference carrier (ca) is generated as a function of said two sum signals (y.sub.Ik and y.sub.Qk) for carrying out a coherent demodulation. According to the invention a projection voltage (z.sub.k) defined by the equation z.sub.k =y.sub.Qk s.sub.Ik -y.sub.Ik s.sub. Qk is generated, wherein y.sub.Ik is a signal sample in the in-phase branch before threshold decision in the detector, y.sub.Qk is the signal sample in the quadrature branch before decision, s.sub.Ik is the detected signal in the in-phase branch, and s.sub.Qk is the detected signal in the quadrature branch.

The invention is directed to efficient transfer of low bit rate services in a communication system. A synchronization symbol which has known characteristics may be included as a first symbol of digital broadcast frames. The synchronization symbol, which can be decoded without having to resort to trial and error methods, contains parameters for the rest of the signal. Low bit rate services are allocated to time slots following the pilot symbol used for synchronization allowing for fast access times with maximum power saving capabilities. A user terminal wakes up just before the synchronization symbol and received the data allocated for the low bit rate services. The user terminal may power off for the remaining time slots which are allocated for higher bit services to conserve power.
