摘要:
Techniques for predicting weights used for closed-loop transmit diversity. In a channel prediction scheme, channel gains for multiple transmit antennas are initially estimated (e.g., based on pilots received from these antennas) and used to derive predicted channel gains for a future time instant. The predicted channel gains are then used to derive predicted weights that are deemed to be “optimal” at the future time instant. Optimality may be determined based on one or more criteria, such as maximizing a received SNR for the received signals. In a weight prediction scheme, the channel gains for the multiple antennas are estimated and used to compute optimal weights for the current time instant. The current optimal weights are then used to predict the optimal weights at the future time instant. For both schemes, the prediction may be performed based on an adaptive filter (e.g., LMS or RLS filter) or a non-adaptive filter.

The described apparatus and methods may include a receiver configured to receive a signal, the signal being a combination of physical channel signals that each correspond to a different one of a plurality of physical channels, and a controller configured to capture signal energy from at least two of the physical channel signals, and detect a cell based on the captured signal energy.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for improved initial cell acquisition with reduced frequency error impact. The method determines the slot timing of a transmission, identifies the primary scrambling code and frame timing using the common pilot channel, and provides a path profile using a pseudorandom noise (PN) search. An apparatus using a cell searcher that performs the method is also described.

A trellis decoder determines the most likely transmitted phase in response to previously requested phase adjustments and observed transmitted symbols. Maximum a posteriori (MAP) decoding also may be used. Alternatively, the identified likely transmitted phase is used for data demodulation. This and related features have the benefit of decreasing the effect of phase discrepancies introduced by erroneous reception of phase adjustment information, resulting in improved error rates, and a corresponding increase in system capacity, data throughput, or both.

A method of data classification for use in a wireless communication system includes obtaining decoder metrics from a decoder. The decoder metrics correspond to data generated by the decoder. The decoder metrics include a symbol error rate (SER) and an energy metric (EM). The method also includes classifying the data into a first category if the data fails a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) check, into a second category if the data passes the CRC check and is determined to be unreliable, or into a third category if the data passes the CRC check and is determined to be reliable. A reliability of the data is determined based on the decoder metrics and an EM threshold.

摘要:
At least one feature pertains to a method of communication that comprises aligning a measurement task that utilizes a resource within a user equipment, such that at least a portion of the measurement task is performed during a time that the resource is enabled in the user equipment, and executing the measurement task during the time that the resource is enabled in the user equipment. In one example, the measurement task may be a searcher task, the resource may comprise receiver circuitry, and the time that the resource is enabled corresponds to a DRX monitoring interval of a downlink channel, such as a high speed shared control channel. By aligning and executing the searcher task during the time that the resource is enabled in the user equipment, searcher overhead may be reduced. Reducing searcher overhead allows the user equipment to save power by disabling the receiver circuitry.
