One of the advantages of the invention is that an indication of link quality at an early stage in the receiver is provided.

    摘要: A digital communication receiver communicates with a digital communication transmitter across a communication channel and has: a channel estimator, which provide a channel estimate of the communication channel based on a received signal; an equalizer, which estimates a sequence of transmitted symbols and provides a sequence of decided symbols based on the received signal and the channel estimate; and a channel tracker, which produces an updated channel estimate based on the received signal and the decided symbols, and which supplies the updated channel estimate to the equalizer. The digital communication receiver has a controller, which receives channel quality indicative data associated with an output from the equalizer, determines whether these data fail to meet a predetermined criterion, and, if so, supplies an enabling control signal to the channel tracker.

    摘要: In a communication system including a transmitter and a receiver, the receiver is synchronized with the transmitter, and a modulation type in a signal transmitted by the transmitter and received by the receiver is detected. A first portion of the received signal is correlated with one or more signals representing modulation types used by the communication system to detect the type of modulation being used in the received signal. Synchronization is established between the transmitter and the receiver. The first portion may be correlated with each of one or more different signals representing various modulation types used in the communication system to detect the type of modulation used. Alternately, the first portion of the received signal may be derotated by different amounts to produce a plurality of derotated signals that are correlated with the signal representing modulation used by the communication system in order to detect the type of modulation used. If the correlation does not result in a determination of the modulation type, either a predetermined modulation type is selected as the modulation type, or the decision of the modulation type is made at a later stage based, e.g., on a comparison of signal qualities or equalization results.

    摘要: A method and system for blind detection of modulation in a wireless telecommunications network. In accordance with the method and system, a plurality of bursts are transmitted over an air interface to a receiving station using a first modulation scheme. Modulation detection statistics for the plurality of received bursts are calculated at the receiving station. Based on the modulation statistics, however, it is determined that at least one of the plurality of received bursts has been transmitted using a second modulation scheme. As a result, the modulation detection statistics are analyzed to identify a single modulation scheme that was most likely used in modulating the plurality of bursts. Any faulty received bursts, for which a detected modulation scheme differs from the identified single modulation scheme, are then processed to reduce the effect of the faulty bursts.

    摘要: Methods and systems for generating timing signals in remote units which can be used in a radiocommunication system are described. A high accuracy clock can be used to provide a timing reference signal for a processor in the remote unit during times when highly accurate timing signals are required. During periods of low activity, the high accuracy clock can be turned off and a low accuracy clock can be used to generate the reference timing signals for the processor. Periodically, the accuracy of the low accuracy clock can be checked by determining a number of low accuracy clock pulses which are generated between system timing signals created based upon the high accuracy clock pulses. In this way, when the low accuracy clock is relied upon to create the system tuning signals, the accuracy is sufficient to enable the processor to recognize when it is time to again power up the high accuracy clock. Moreover, checking the accuracy of the low accuracy clock enables the processor to provide error compensation signals to a real time clock function which relies upon the low accuracy clock pulses for determining a current time.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for selecting an access technology in a multi-mode terminal are provided. Information is exchanged between a multi-mode terminal and at least one base station using a first access technology, the multi-mode terminal being capable of exchanging information with the at least one base station using a number of access technologies. The type of information exchanged is identified, and at least a second access technology is determined, different from the first access technology, that is capable of exchanging information of the identified information type. The first and at least second access technologies form a set of compatible access technologies. A determination is made as to the minimum radiated power level needed to exchange the information with the at least one base station for each of the compatible access technologies. An optimal access technology requiring a lowest amount of battery energy among the set of compatible access technologies is selected to maintain the minimum radiated power level needed to exchange the information between the multi-mode terminal and the at least one base station.

    摘要: A method and system for communicating data between an integrated circuit and each of a first device and a second device. Communications between the integrated circuit and the first device use a first interface protocol, while communications between the integrated circuit and the second device use a second interface protocol. Both interface protocols, however, share the same data bus and clock bus. To communicate using the second interface protocol, the first device, which uses the first interface protocol, is first deactivated by sending address data via the shared data bus that does not identify the first device, thereby causing the first device to enter an inactive state until a stop condition is detected on the shared data bus. Then, communications using the second interface protocol can be carried out, provided that a start or stop condition for the first interface protocol is not inadvertently generated on the shared data bus.
