摘要:
Various methods and systems receiving information from an access point over a wireless link in order to reduce processing and/or transmission overhead are disclosed. Such methods and systems may include the processing of a received packet using a descrambling operation on at least a portion of the packet's information based on a MAC-ID associated with an access terminal to produce at least a first processed packet, and determining whether the received packet is targeted to the access terminal based on the first processed packet.

Techniques for selecting serving sectors and performing handoff for a terminal on the forward and reverse links are described. The terminal may obtain pilot measurements for pilots transmitted on the forward link and may update an active set based on the pilot measurements. The terminal may send a transmission (e.g., for pilot, signaling, etc.) on the reverse link and may receive channel quality information indicative of reverse link channel quality for the terminal at multiple sectors in the active set. The transmission may include pilot, and the channel quality information from each sector may include a pilot carrier-over-thermal ratio (pCoT) determined by that sector based on the pilot. The terminal may select a serving sector based on the channel quality information, interference information, and/or other information and may send a request for handoff (e.g., via a signaling message an/or an access probe) to the selected serving sector.

Techniques for transmitting pilot and traffic data are described. In one aspect, a terminal may scramble its pilot with a scrambling sequence generated based on a set of static and dynamic parameters. The static parameter(s) have fixed value for an entire communication session for the terminal. The dynamic parameter(s) have variable value during the communication session. The terminal may generate a scrambling sequence by hashing the set of parameters to obtain a seed and initializing a PN generator with the seed. The terminal may then generate the pilot based on the scrambling sequence. In another aspect, the terminal may use different scrambling sequences for pilot and traffic data. A first scrambling sequence may be generated based on a first set of parameters and used to generate the pilot. A second scrambling sequence may be generated based on a second set of parameters and used to scramble traffic data.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate recovering from error due to false detection of completion signals at an access terminal. An access terminal specific request signal can be sent to a target base station to initiate handoff or semi-connected state exit. A completion signal can be transferred in response to the access terminal specific request signal. To mitigate errors stemming from false detection of the completion signal at the access terminal, forward link and reverse link confirmation signals can be transferred to confirm successful handoff or connected state re-entry completion. For example, the access terminal can determine handoff or re-entry to be successful when a forward link confirmation signal is detected prior to expiration of a timer. Moreover, the forward link and reverse link confirmation signals can each include more CRC bits as compared to a number of CRC bits included in the completion signal.

Techniques to transmit pilot on a CDMA segment on the reverse link in a wireless communication system are described. A terminal generates a scrambling sequence based on its pilot information. The pilot information may be used for the entire duration of a call by the terminal and for all sectors with which the terminal communicates during the call. The terminal generates pilot symbols based on the scrambling sequence, maps the pilot symbols to the CDMA segment, generates OFDM symbols with the mapped pilot symbols, and sends the OFDM symbols to one or more sectors. A base station processes received OFDM symbols to obtain received symbols for the CDMA segment. The base station generates the scrambling sequence based on the pilot information for the terminal and processes the received symbols with the scrambling sequence to obtain at least one parameter (e.g., received signal strength) for the terminal.

Wireless communications methods and apparatus are described. A communications apparatus, e.g., a base station, measures interference information, e.g., other sector interference information. The communications apparatus generates a preamble which includes a plurality of pilot symbols and at least one of the pilot symbols includes interference information. In some embodiments, the preamble is part of a superframe structure, e.g., a recurring superframe structure, including the preamble and a plurality of frames, at least some of the frames used to convey traffic data. The communications apparatus transmits the preamble, thus broadcasting the interference information to access terminals in the vicinity. An access terminal receives the preamble including a plurality of pilot signals, at least one of the pilot signals including interference information. The access terminal recovers the interference information from the received preamble and controls signal transmission based on the recovered interference information.
摘要:
Signaling-only access may be established with an access node under certain circumstances such as, for example, upon determining that a node is not authorized for data access at the access node. A node that is not authorized for data access at an access node may still be paged by the access node through the use of signaling-only access. In this way, transmissions by the access node may not interfere with the reception of pages at the node. A first node may be selected for providing paging while a second node is selected for access under certain circumstances such as, for example, upon determining that the second node provides more desirable service than the first node.
