The disclosed embodiments relate to a communication system and method. The system may comprise a pre-whitening device that applies pre-whitening data to a received signal from an antenna array to produce a pre-whitened signal, at least one detector that is adapted to recognize a pattern corresponding to a request for access in the pre-whitened signal and compute correlation data corresponding to the pattern, and a threshold detector that determines whether the correlation data exceeds a threshold and indicates that an acknowledgement signal should be transmitted if the threshold is exceeded. The method may comprise the acts of creating a pre-whitened signal by applying pre-whitening data to a received signal, detecting a pattern that corresponds to a request for access in the pre-whitened signal, computing correlation data corresponding to the pattern, determining whether the correlation data exceeds a threshold, and indicating that an acknowledgement signal should be transmitted if the threshold is exceeded.

Disclosed is a method of setting reverse link traffic and pilot transmit powers in a wireless communications system based on traffic channel activity in order to lower average total transmit power on the reverse link and optimize reverse link capacity. As traffic channel activity decreases, the traffic transmit power relative to the pilot transmit power, i.e., traffic-to-pilot ratio (TPR), should increase. Increasing TPR will produce lower pilot transmit powers and higher traffic transmit powers. Although higher traffic transmit powers are undesirable, the effect on average total transmit power is lessen because the traffic channel is not active all the time. By contrast, the pilot channel is always active and, thus, it is desirable to sacrifice some performance of channel estimation in order to lower average total transmit power.

In an embodiment of the method, an estimated use of an uplink resource by prioritized users, if transmission rates for the prioritized users are granted, is determined. The transmission rates are then granted if the estimated use of the uplink resource is less than or equal to an available amount of the uplink resource. Otherwise, the granting of transmission rates of the prioritized users is controlled in order of lower priority prioritized users to higher priority prioritized users until the estimated use of the uplink resource by the prioritized users falls within the available amount of the uplink resource for the channel.
摘要:
In a method and arrangement for detecting a random access channel preamble in a received uplink signal, the uplink signal is received at one or more receive antennas and contains data related to a random access channel preamble. The received uplink signal is subjected to spatial processing and temporal processing in order to detect the random access channel preamble. A best cell portion for communicating with a user may also be determined based on the detected preamble. The best cell portion represents a portion of a cell where a received uplink signal from a user has a highest signal to interference ratio. The detected random access channel preamble is indicative of the best cell portion for communicating with the user.

In a wireless telecommunications network, there is included: a macro cell (10) having a first coverage area; and at least one metro cell (20a, 20b, 20c) having a second coverage area, the metro cell being located within the first coverage area of the macro cell. Suitably, the macro cell is configured to: determine whether or not the macro cell is congested; determine whether or not the metro cell is uncongested; and, if it is determined the macro cell is congested and that the metro cell is uncongested, then the macro cell determines that an attempted application of Cell Association Bias (CAB) for the metro cell is warranted. Suitably, if CAB is in fact applied, the macro cell also implements enhanced Inter Cell Interference Coordination (eICIC) using Almost Blank Subframes (ABS) and informs its other neighboring metro cells of this configuration.

A method of uplink carrier handoff in a multiple carrier communication system may include receiving a measurement report from a mobile providing information regarding path loss as measured at the mobile for one of the multiple carriers on the downlink. A serving carrier may be the carrier over which the mobile communicates on the uplink. An instruction may be selectively sent to the mobile to handoff to a non-serving one of the multiple carriers depending on whether a threshold requirement has been met. The meeting of the threshold requirement may be based on the received measurement report and the serving carrier of the mobile. Each of the multiple carriers may have an associated threshold requirement.

摘要:
A method is provided a wireless system for reliably transmitting context information in robust header compression at low signal energies. More particularly, the methodology of the invention provides an elongated virtual Transmission Time Interval (Super TTI) for the first few (in particular, the first) non-compressed packet (that includes upper layer headers) of a packet stream transmitted using ROHC compression. Improved reception reliability for the uncompressed packet, in particular to decode the headers, results by application to the Super TTI of a combination of TTI Bundling techniques, RLC segmentation and association with multiple HARQ processes and use of enough HARQ rounds.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method of allocating resources in a packet data system to a User Equipment (UE) with an active data session, such as a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) call, using dedicated resources to transmit scheduling requests, thereby reducing latency which may occur as a result of collisions associated with transmitting scheduling requests over a random access channel. The method comprises the step of transmitting over dedicated resources a scheduling request, and receiving a scheduling grant in response thereto. The scheduling request indicates that a transmitter in a data session has a data packet to transmit. The scheduling grant indicates resources allocated for transmitting the data packet.
