摘要:
A code-division-multiple-access (CDMA) system employing spread-spectrum modulation. The CDMA system has a base station (BS), and a plurality of subscriber units. The signals transmitted between the base station and subscriber unit use spread-spectrum modulation. The improvement method for adaptive reverse power control (APC) from a subscriber unit (SU) to a base station (BS), comprises the steps of sending from the subscriber unit, using spread-spectrum modulation, a SU-spreading code on a reverse channel. The base station despreads the SU-spreading code on the reverse channel as a despread signal, determines a first power level Pd which includes power of the despread signal plus noise and a second power level PN, which includes despread-noise power. The base station determines a first error signal e1, from the first power level Pd, the second power level PN, and a required signal-to-noise ratio SNRREQ for service type, and a second error signal e2, from a measure of total received power Prt at the base station, and an automatic gain control (AGC) set point Po. The base station forms a combined error signal from the first error signal e1, the second error signal e2, a first weight a1 and a second weight a2, and hard limits the combined error signal to form a single APC bit. The APC bit is transmitted to the subscriber unit. In response to the APC bit, the subscriber adjusts transmitter power to the base station.

A receiver receives signals and noise over a frequency spectrum of a desired received signal. The desired received signal is spread using code division multiple access. The received signals and noise are demodulated to produce a demodulated signal. The demodulated signal is despread using a code uncorrelated with a code associated with the desired received signal. A power level of the despread demodulated signal is measured as an estimate of the noise level of the frequency spectrum.

A wireless code division multiple access (CDMA) communication system, including a base station (BS) and a subscriber unit (SU), uses adaptive forward power control (AFPC) and adaptive reverse power control (ARPC) to control the transmit power of forward and reverse link radio frequency (RF) channel signals, respectively. Automatic gain control (AGC) signals are produced to maintain the level of forward and reverse CDMA signals at a near constant level. The CDMA signals are despread to produce first and second despread signals. The first and second despread signals are used to produce a first error signal e1. A second error signal e2 is produced based on the AGC signals. Combined error signals are formed based on the first error signal e1 and the second error signal e2. The combined error signals are hard limited to form adaptive power control (APC) bits used to control the level of the forward and reverse link RF channel signals.

A code-division-multiple-access (CDMA) system employing spread-spectrum modulation. The CDMA system has a base station (BS), and a plurality of subscriber units (SUs). The signals transmitted between the BS and SU use spread-spectrum modulation. The improvement method for maintaining control of power from an SU to a BS comprises sending from the subscriber unit, using spread-spectrum modulation, a SU-spreading code, and detecting, at the BS, the SU-spreading code from the SU. In response to detecting the SU-spreading code at the BS, a BS-spreading code is sent to the SU, using spread-spectrum modulation. At the SU, if the BS-spreading code is detected, then transmit power of the SU is reduced. If the BS-spreading code is not detected at the SU, then transmit power of the SU is increased.

The signals transmitted between the base station and subscriber unit use spread-spectrum modulation. The system and method transmits from the base station, a synchronization channel having a chip-sequence signal used by the plurality of subscriber units for synchronization. A first subscriber unit receives the synchronization channel, and determines timing from the synchronization channel. In order to initiate communications with the base station, the first subscriber unit transmits an access signal. The access signal has a plurality of power levels, which typically ramp up. The base station receives the access signal at a particular-power level. The base station then transmits to the first subscriber unit an acknowledgment signal. The first subscriber unit receives the acknowledgment signal, and transmits to the base station, a spread-spectrum signal.

The improvement apparatus for adaptive forward power control (APC) from a base station (BS) to a subscriber unit (SU), includes sending from the base station, using spread-spectrum modulation, a BS-spreading code on a forward channel. The subscriber unit despreads the BS-spreading code on the forward channel as a despread signal, determines a first power level P.sub.d which includes power of the despread signal plus noise and a second power level P.sub.N, which includes despread-noise power. The subscriber unit determines a first error signal e.sub.1, from the first power level P.sub.d, the second power level P.sub.N, and a required signal-to-noise ratio SNR.sub.REQ for service type, and a second error signal e.sub.2, from a measure of total received power P.sub.r and an automatic gain control (AGC) set point P.sub.o. The subscriber unit forms a combined error signal from the first error signal e.sub.1, the second error signal e.sub.2, a first weight a.sub.1 and a second weight a.sub.2, and hard limits the combined error signal to form a single APC bit. The APC bit is transmitted to the base station. In response to the APC bit, the base station adjusts transmitter power to the subscriber unit.
