Abstract:
A method and system for determining amplitude and phase compensation values used to adjust the amplitude and phase characteristics of real and imaginary signal components of complex signals processed by an analog radio transmitter. The compensation values may be determined in response to detecting a significant temperature change in the transmitter. Corresponding amplitude and phase adjustment signals having levels that correspond to the compensation values are provided to respective amplitude and phase imbalance compensation modules to adjust the amplitude and phase characteristics of at least one of the real and imaginary signal components.
Abstract:
A communication system including an amplifier, a receiver, an analog to digital converter (ADC) and an insertion phase variation compensation module. The amplifier receives a communication signal. If the amplifier is enabled, the amplifier amplifies the communication signal and outputs the amplified communication signal to the receiver. If the amplifier is disabled, the amplifier passes the communication signal to the receiver without amplifying it. The receiver outputs an analog complex signal to the ADC. The ADC outputs a digital complex signal to the insertion phase variation compensation module which counteracts the effects of a phase offset intermittently introduced into the communication signal when the amplifier is enabled or disabled.

Abstract:
A User Equipment (UE) has a circuit that performs the acquisition for the low chip rate option of the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) Time Division Duplex (TDD) standard as formulated by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). The present invention implements the detection of the basic SYNC code; the determination of the midamble used and the detection of the superframe timing based on SYNC code modulation sequence. This enables reading of a full Broadcast Channel (BCH) message.
Abstract:
A method for a user equipment (UE) to establish a communication link comprising the steps of receiving an input communication signal at an initial search frequency, processing the input communication signal to retrieve a primary scrambling code, the retrieval of the primary scrambling code being a code decision, and adjusting the search frequency of the UE in response to the code decision.
Abstract:
A method and system for performing initial cell search is disclosed. Step 1 processing is preformed to detect a peak primary synchronization code (PSC) location (i.e. chip offset or chip location). Step 2 processing is performed to obtain the toffset and code group. Step 3 processing is performed to identify the midamble of a base station with which the WTRU performing the initial cell search may synchronize with.

Abstract:
Method and apparatus for adjusting the frequency of a VCO at a receiver to synchronize the receiver with the transmitter by correlating a synchronization code channel with training sequences to estimate positive and negative offsets which are employed to estimate an error, which is then filtered. The filter output provides voltage controlling the VCO. The same technique may be employed to control a numeric controlled oscillator (NCO).
Abstract:
A system and method for establishing initial synchronization for the link between a UE and a base station in a communication network uses window exclusion logic in order to avoid a deadlock condition upon a detection of the wrong public land mobile network (PLMN). The communication signal is processed in a three step decision process. The first decision step determines a chip offset of the strongest path detected over a frame of samples. In response to the first decision, the second step generates a scrambling code group number and slot offset for retrieving the secondary synchronization code. The third decision step retrieves a primary scrambling code in response to the code group number for synchronizing the UE to the base station.
Abstract:
A digital baseband (DBB) radio frequency (RF) receiver includes a digital high pass filter compensation (HPFC) module used to suppress group delay variation distortion caused by using low cost analog high pass filters (HPFs) in the receiver. The digital HPFC module reduces a cutoff frequency, established by the HPFs for the real and imaginary signal component frequency domain responses by providing a first compensation signal having a first predetermined value (K1). The digital HPFC module adjusts the gain of the high pass response of the real and imaginary signal component frequency domains by providing a second compensation signal having a second predetermined value (K2).
