A method and an apparatus for a Wireless Transmit/receive Unit (WTRU) to perform inter-frequency measurements and inter-frequency soft handover from an originating Base Station (BS) operating at a first frequency to a destination BS operating at a second frequency. The WTRU has at least two antennas, where each antenna initially receiving at the first frequency. The method of the invention performs inter-frequency measurements of the channel on the second frequency using at least one of the antennas that were used for performing data reception on the first frequency. The invention includes a method and an apparatus for performing inter-frequency handover. The inter-frequency handover includes soft handover and hard handover.
摘要:
A method and system for generating a secret key from joint randomness shared by wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) are disclosed. A first WTRU and a second WTRU perform channel estimation to generate a sampled channel impulse response (CIR) on a channel between the first WTRU and the second WTRU. The first WTRU generates a set of bits from the sampled CIR and generates a secret key and a syndrome, (or parity bits), from the set of bits. The first WTRU sends the syndrome, (or parity bits), to the second WTRU. The second WTRU reconstructs the set of bits from the syndrome, (or parity bits), and its own sampled CIR, and generates the secret key from the reconstructed set of bits.
摘要:
A method and apparatus is used for generating a perfectly random secret key between two or more transceivers in a wireless communication network. In a point-to-point system, both transceivers produce an estimate of the channel impulse response (CIR) based on the received radio signal. The CIR estimation is synchronized and may include error correction and detection. A long secret key of bits is generated from a digitized version of the CIR estimate, from which a perfectly secret encryption key is derived by privacy amplification.

The present invention relates to secret key generation and authentication methods that are based on joint randomness not shared by others (JRNSO), in which unique channel response between two communication terminals generates a secret key. Multiple network access points use a unique physical location of a receiving station to increase user data security. High data rate communication data is encrypted by generating a random key and a pseudo-random bit stream. A configurable interleaving is achieved by introduction of JRNSO bits to an encoder used for error-correction codes. Databases of user data are also protected by JRNSO-based key mechanisms. Additional random qualities are induced on the joint channel using MIMO eigen-beamforming, antenna array deflection, polarization selection, pattern deformation, and path selection by beamforming or time correlation. Gesturing induces randomness according to uniquely random patterns of a human user's arm movements inflected to the user device.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for providing fast detection of a high speed shared control channel (HS-SCCH). The HS-SCCH carries information necessary for receiving data via a high speed downlink shared channel (HS-DSCH). The apparatus receives messages transmitted via a plurality of HS-SCCHs. The apparatus measures a channel quality for the messages received via each HS-SCCH. The apparatus performs a threshold test by comparing the channel quality with a predetermined threshold. The apparatus then selects a HS-SCCH having the best channel quality among the HS-SCCHs.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for obtaining channel quality estimates for a downlink scheduler located in a Node-B which communicates with a plurality of wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs). The Node-B signals a scheduled WTRU, via a high speed shared control channel (HS-SCCH) carrying valid transport format resource combination (TFRC) information, indicating that a high speed downlink shared channel (HS-DSCH) transmission will be arriving. The Node-B also indicates the upcoming arrival of the HS-DSCH transmission by signaling at least one non-scheduled WTRU via a HS-SCCH carrying invalid TFRC information. The Node-B transmits the HS-DSCH transmission to the scheduled WTRU. The non-scheduled WTRU monitors a subset of the HS-DSCH transmission and, when invalid TFRC information is detected, determines a CQI without decoding HS-DSCH data. Otherwise, the results of cyclic redundancy check (CRC), always a non-acknowledgement (NACK) message, is signaled along with the CQI to the Node-B.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for adaptively biasing a channel quality indicator (CQI) used for setting a configuration of communication between a transmitter and a receiver in a wireless communication system. The receiver sends a CQI and positive acknowledgement (ACK)/negative acknowledgement (NACK) messages to the transmitter. The ACK/NACK messages indicate the absence or presence of error, respectively, in a transmitted data packet. The CQI is derived from the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) and the ACK/NACK messages. The transmitter calculates the block error rate (BLER) of the transmitted data packets based upon the ACK/NACK messages sent from the receiver. The transmitter compares the BLER of the transmitted data packets to a target BLER and biases the CQI based on the comparison in order to achieve the target BLER.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for estimating and reporting the quality of a wireless communication channel between a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and a Node-B. A modulated signal is received from the Node-B over the communication channel and a channel estimation is performed on the modulated signal to provide a channel estimate. In one embodiment, the modulated signal is demodulated based on the channel estimate to provide a demodulated signal and a signal-to-interference (SIR) estimate based on the demodulated signal is obtained. The quality of the communication channel is estimated based on at least the SIR estimate. In an alternate embodiment, a SIR estimate based on the channel estimate is obtained. The quality of the communication channel is estimated based on the SIR estimate and additional information including at least one of delay spread, transmit power and WTRU velocity information.
摘要:
Detecting, avoiding and/or correcting problematic puncturing patterns in parity bit streams used when implementing punctured Turbo codes is achieved without having to avoid desirable code rates. This enables identification/avoidance of regions of relatively poor Turbo code performance. Forward error correction comprising Turbo coding and puncturing achieves a smooth functional relationship between any measure of performance and the effective coding rate resulting from combining the lower rate code generated by the Turbo encoder with puncturing of the parity bits. In one embodiment, methods to correct/avoid degradations due to Turbo coding are implemented by puncturing interactions when two or more stages of rate matching are employed.
