摘要:
A multimode wireless communication device capable of communicating pursuant to first and second communication protocols, including a method wherein a determination is made (530) as to whether a harmonic generated during transmission in one protocol interferes with reception in another protocol, and wherein transmission is suspended while receiving only if a harmonic generated during transmission interferes with reception. In some embodiments, the transmitter is temporarily operated in compressed mode to enable the suspension.

A method to reduce crossmodulation in a multimode radio communication device with a transmitter, a receiver, and a second receiver (400) that operates in a receiver channel bandwidth (402) includes a step of measuring a first signal strength in the receiver channel bandwidth (404), a second signal strength outside of the receiver channel bandwidth (406), and a power level of the transmitter. A next step (408) includes determining a signal-to-crossmodulation interference ratio (SCMIR). A next step (410) includes calculating a SCMIR threshold. A next step (412) includes comparing the ratio to the threshold. A next step (416,420) includes increasing the linearity of the receiver if the ratio is less than the threshold.

A method (300) and an apparatus (202) for a digital diversity receiver having a first receiver branch (204) and a second receiver branch (206) for adjusting a receiver power control loop during a radio frame (100) of a known length are provide. The digital diversity receiver (202) receives a first signal (208) through the first receiver branch (204) during the radio frame (100), and receives a second signal (210) through the second receiver branch (206) during a portion of the radio frame (106, 110). The second signal (210) originates from a common original signal (212) as the first signal 208. The digital diversity receiver (202) evaluates (308) a receiver power control parameter for the first interval (106) based upon the first signal (208) and the second signal (210), and compensates (310) the receiver power control parameter with an offset value for the first interval (106). The compensated receiver power control parameter is then applied (312) to the receiver power control loop during the first interval.
摘要:
A method for increase receiver efficiency in a multimode communication device includes a first step of monitoring a received signal strength of a neighboring cell on a receiver channel. A next step includes determining a noise on the receiver channel from a transmitter power amplifier of the communication device. A next step includes comparing the level of interference with a predetermined threshold and with respect to the signal strength. A next step includes blanking the receiver when the transmitter power amplifier of the communication device is on and if the predetermined threshold is not exceeded indicating excessive self-interference.

Handoff methods perform cell-to-cell handoff between cells of the same satellite and between cells of different satellites. Handoff is initiated by an individual subscriber unit (ISU) based on local conditions. Once handoff is needed, the ISU chooses a candidate cell to transfer its communication based on a dynamic handoff candidate list provided by the satellite. After selecting a candidate cell, the ISU requests handoff, the satellite or satellites perform the handoff and communication begins over a new channel in the candidate cell.

A multimode wireless receiver circuit (10) includes multi-receiver control and interference detection logic (50) and least two separate receivers: a first receiver (20) associated with a first radio access technology and a second receiver (30) associated with a second radio access technology. The multi-receiver control and interference detection logic (50) simultaneously controls the second receiver (30) to detect an interference blocker signal (100), while the first receiver (20) receives at least a portion of the wireless signal (80) and the interference product signal (90). In response to the second receiver (30) detecting the interference blocker signal (100), the multi-receiver control and interference detection logic (50) adjusts at least one operating condition of the first receiver (20) such that the interference product signal (90) received by the first receiver (20) is reduced.
摘要:
A method in a transmitter for data collision avoidance in an uncoordinated frequency hopping communication system is disclosed. The base station (104) first determines (304) that a first data set to be sent to a first device (105) and a second data set to be sent to a second device (107) are scheduled to be transmitted simultaneously on a first frequency of a frequency hop-set. The device then transmits (310) the first data set on the first frequency of the frequency hop-set. The base station delays (312) transmission of the second data set, and finally transmits (316) the second data set on a second frequency of a frequency hop-set.
