    Abstract: A mobile communications system includes base stations and mobile units. A power control scheme is provided in which a mobile unit can enter into a discontinuous transmission (DTX) mode. During DTX mode, the mobile unit is not transmitting traffic channels that can be monitored to determine frame errors so that the target ratio of energy per bit to noise spectral density (target Eb/No) can be adjusted. Instead, the base station monitors bit errors of bits in a pilot channel communicated by the mobile unit during DTX mode. Using this technique, the target Eb/No can be adjusted even when the mobile unit is not transmitting traffic channels, so that outer-loop power control can be performed. A number of mechanisms can also be used to detect when a mobile unit has entered DTX mode.

    Abstract: A method for optimizing power management in the transmittal of a variable rate data transfer between two wireless stations, such as a Base Station Transceiver and a Mobile Station. This is achieved by determining the initial power and the initial signal-to-noise values based on the reliability of the transmission, the desired data transfer rate, the power required to transmit a fixed rate message, and the frame error rates. By the use of this invention, the capacity of a desired system and/or quality of a service provided by a desired system may be enhanced.

    Abstract: A wireless communications network includes a first base station system that performs wireless communications according to a first protocol (e.g., 1xEV-DO protocol) and a second base station system that performs wireless communications according to a second, different protocol (e.g., IS-2000). A link is provided between the first and second base station systems to enable a network-initiated handoff procedure. If a source base station system detects that a handoff of a mobile station to a target base station system is required, the source base station system exchanges messaging over the link with the target base station system to perform the handoff. In one example, the handoff is a hard handoff.

    Abstract: A method for sharing Walsh codes between at least two mobile stations operating simultaneously in a Control Hold Medium Access Control (MAC) state in Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), whereby for each respective mobile station, upon entry of the respective mobile station into the Control Hold MAC state, a gating rate 1/x to be used by the respective mobile station, wherein x is greater than one, is determined. A Walsh code being used by less than x mobile stations in the control hold MAC state is identified and allocated to the respective mobile station to thereby define a channel of communication for the respective mobile station. A time slot which is not being used by any mobile stations using the identified Walsh code in the control hold MAC state, is identified and allocated to the respective mobile station, thereby permitting at least one signal to be transmitted between a base station and the respective mobile station using the identified Walsh code during the time slot allocated to the respective mobile station.

    Abstract: A wireless communications network includes a mobile station and wireless access equipment. In communications between the wireless access equipment and the mobile station (such as in the forward link), a data rate is specified. However, the effective data rate can be reduced (with respect to the specified data rate) if it is determined that the specified data rate is not needed. In one arrangement, the effective data rate is reduced by waiting to fill a physical layer packet before transmission.

    Abstract: Disclosed is an encoder, interleaver and splitter design approach for increasing system capacity. This is accomplished in a dual path embodiment by splitting the data stream into two subsets where one subset contains even number position bits of the original set and the other subset comprises the remaining odd bits. Each of the subsets may then be interleaved in standard fashion. This approach ensures that consecutively occurring bits in the original set are never transmitted from the same antenna and can be used to maximize the distance (and accordingly the time of transmission) between alternately occurring bits. The thought process behind this embodiment of the invention may be used to design a single interleaver as practiced in the prior art to accomplish the equivalent end result. The design process may be modified to include any number of transmission paths. Additional improvement of capacity may be obtained where each subset is interleaved in a manner to maximize the time separation between transmission of data bits, originally occurring L bits apart, prior to splitting or interleaving, in each of L data paths.
