A method for a source-controlled channel-decoding of data in a frame format includes the steps of channel-decoding a given frame of data, determining an a-posteriori information based on a reliability decision of the channel-decoding and/or a source-decoding subsequent to the channel-decoding, calculating an a-priori information based on the a-posteriori information and based on a residual redundancy of the data, and channel-decoding the given frame once more using the a-priori information. The method thus uses the residual correlation between bits in a frame. The method preferably uses the intra-frame correlation in a GSM system. A channel-decoder configuration is also provided.

摘要:
Signals received from channels exposed to multi-path propagation via a plurality of diversity antennas and including at least one pilot signal are processed by detecting a set of multi-path components for each received signal and computing a set of channel coefficients from multi-path components of the at least one pilot signal in the set of multi-path components. The set of channel coefficients is organized as a channel coefficient vector. From the channel coefficient vector, a set of combining weights is estimated to be applied to the received signals by: computing a spatial correlation matrix of the channel coefficient vector by neglecting the correlations between multi-path components of the channel coefficient vector having different delays, whereby the correlation matrix is a block diagonal matrix including null coefficients other than for non-null sub-matrixes arranged along the diagonal of the correlation matrix, wherein the sub-matrixes have a size equal to the number of diversity antennas; deriving from the spatial correlation matrix a resulting matrix by calculating the inverse of the sub-matrixes or a scaled version thereof; and multiplying the resulting matrix and the channel coefficient vector in order to obtain the desired set of combining weights.

Disclosed herein is a method of managing a hybrid network including a cellular network and a local network wherein a number of dual mode mobile terminals are connectable to a base station of the cellular network through a direct cellular link and are also connectable, one with respect to the other, through the local network by a radio access technique. The method includes the steps of computing a cost associated with a direct connection established along a path (A) extending from a selected mobile terminal to the base station through the cellular link only, computing a cost (Ccg) associated with at least one indirect connection established along a path (B) extending from the selected mobile terminal to the base station through the local network and the cellular network, and selecting for data transmission the path that minimizes the cost.

摘要:
A system for estimating the transfer function of a transmission channel such as the downlink channel in a CDMA system over which a pilot signal and a data signal are transmitted. The system includes at least one estimator for producing first and second channel estimates from the pilot signal and the data signals and a combination node for combining the first and second channel estimates to obtain final combined channel estimates. The system includes an interpolator module adapted for interpolating the second channel estimates over a basic estimation reference time to produce equal numbers of channel estimates over the basic estimation reference time derived from the data signal and the pilot signal respectively, and possibly rate adaptation modules adapted for mapping the channel estimates on the basic estimation reference time. The combination node is a summation node producing the final combined channel estimates as a sum of the first channel estimates and the interpolated second channel estimates.

A method of arranging exchange of signals between user terminals in a cellular communication system and at least one base station. The base station includes a central unit and a plurality of remote units. The signals are exchanged between the central unit and the remote units as aggregated signals for plural user terminals. The signals are processed at the remote units as distinct signals each associated with a respective one of the plural user terminals.
