摘要:
A method for improving the performance of a random access communications system in a variable radio environment is disclosed, whereby at least one valid set of burst signatures is used for transmission by one or more mobile stations. Each set includes at least one signature with a different signature-length than the signatures in other sets. The different signature-lengths can be optimized for the operational environments involved (e.g., longer signatures for slower-moving mobile stations, and shorter signatures for high-speed mobile stations). Alternatively, at least one differentially-encoded signature is used for random access transmissions, in order to reduce the radio channel's sensitivity to large doppler spreads and frequency errors.

With respect to a direct sequence, code division multiple access spread spectrum transmitter, symbol information relating to dedicated/common channels (such as the traffic or control channels) is spread to generate a plurality of corresponding dedicated/common channel intermediate signals. These intermediate signals are then summed to generate an output signal that is scrambled by a selected scrambling code. Symbol information relating to acquisition-related channels (such as synchronization information or the pilot or long code group code channels) is also spread to generate a plurality of corresponding acquisition-related intermediate signals. These acquisition-related intermediate signals are then selectively added to the scrambled output signal producing a downlink signal for multi-channel transmission over a communications medium sharing one transmission communications frequency.

In a communications system, communications resources are allocated in a dynamic, “as needed” fashion. No explicit signaling is needed to exchange information pertaining specifically to an allocated communications resource. Instead, resources are implicitly allocated by using one or more parameters known to both the radio access network and mobile station that are more or less unique to the mobile station. Such parameters are used to generate or address a communications resource for use by the mobile station. The parameters might, for example, be information readily acquired or communicated as a result of a synchronization procedure, a mobile station registration procedure, a mobile station access procedure, a paging procedure, etc. Example parameters may include a system frame number, a system identification, a radio access network identification, a base station identification, a cell identification, a mobile station-associated signature, an access reference number corresponding to the mobile station, a time instant when an acknowledgment message is received, etc.

Each frame of a pilot channel transmission in a spread spectrum communications system is divided into a plurality of synchronization slots. Each of the synchronization slots includes a pilot code, and at least one of the synchronization slots further includes a framing synchronization code. To extract frame and slot synchronization information from the pilot channel transmission, pilot code timing is first identified by applying a matched filter or correlation to a received pilot signal, identifying peaks, and using the peaks to find a timing reference indicative of synchronization slot boundaries. Next, the set of known framing synchronization codes are correlated with the received signal over the included found synchronization slots. Given that the location within the frame of the known framing synchronization code(s) is known, once a correlation match is found at a certain slot location, the boundary of the frame (i.e., the frame synchronization) relative thereto is then also known.

A special coding scheme is disclosed for more effectively acquiring a long code and frame timing during a cell search in a CDMA communications system. A code set of length M Q-ary code words including symbols from a set of Q short codes is defined with certain properties. The primary property to be satisfied is that no cyclic shift of a code word yields a valid code word. The other properties to be satisfied are that there is a one-to-one mapping between a long code message and a valid code word, and a decoder should be able to find both the random shift (thereby implicitly finding the frame timing) and the transmitted code word (i.e., its associated long code indication message) in the presence of interference and noise, with some degree of accuracy and reasonable complexity.

A method is disclosed for processing mobile-originated random access requests in a mobile telecommunications system that randomly selects new signatures for re-transmissions in the event that collisions have occurred. As such, the random access re-transmissions are randomized over the signature domain instead of just over the time domain. Consequently, the disclosed invention significantly shortens random access delays caused by collisions or erroneous arrivals at base station receivers, and also significantly reduces the interval between random access re-transmissions.
摘要:
Each transmission frame within a spread spectrum communications system relating to synchronization code transmission is divided into a plurality of slots. Each of the slots includes a primary (pilot) code c.sub.p and a secondary (combined) code c.sub.s/lci that includes information identifying or indicative of both a frame timing and a scrambling code for synchronization. This information concerning frame timing and scrambling code may be encoded in the combined code c.sub.s/lci itself, as well as in the modulation values of the sequences of plural combined codes within a frame. Alternatively, the information is encoded in the sequence of plural combined codes c.sub.s/lci transmitted in each frame, as well as in the modulated values of the sequences of plural combined codes within a frame. As yet another alternative, the information is encoded in the timing of the combined code c.sub.s/lci transmission within each slot of the frame relative to its associated primary code c.sub.p.

A method and apparatus for controlling the power of a signal transmitted between a base station and a mobile terminal which constitute a mobile communication system. At least one of the base station and the mobile terminal has functions to compare a predetermined reference value and a necessary transmission power obtained as a result of transmission power control in order to compensate for a signal intensity fluctuation occurring on a link between the base station and the mobile terminal, temporarily stopping the transmission if the necessary transmission power is larger than a predetermined permissible value, and transmit the signal if the necessary transmission power is equal to or smaller than the predetermined permissible value.

The purpose of the present invention is to offer a structure of a CDMA system having a power control method and interference cancellers which can effectively increase the system capacity and is resistant to sudden changes on the communication path, and to achieve a power control method with a fast response capable of preventing unnecessary increases in the transmission power (and multiple access interference) of the uplink by reflecting the values of the post-interference cancellation signal-to-interference power ratio in the generation of power control command information. The invention is directed to a power control method in a communication system for performing communications by code-division multiple access between a mobile station and base station, wherein a multiple access interference signal contained in a reception signal from the mobile station is cancelled, a post-interference cancellation signal-to-interference power ratio of the reception signal currently received is estimated, a power control command is generated by comparing the estimated post-interference cancellation signal-to-interference power ratio and a target value for power control, and transmitting this power control command to the mobile station to control the transmission power of the mobile station.

A method for controlling the power transmission levels in a spread spectrum or CDMA cellular system is disclosed, in which the decision to increase or decrease the transmission power level of a mobile station or base station, and the amount of any such increase or decrease made, is based on the weighted combination of a plurality of factors that indicate existing channel conditions. For example, the weight can be set according to the reliability of each channel condition factor involved.
