    Abstract: A method includes, in a mobile communication terminal, storing a mathematical model for computing a covariance matrix of data conveying signals that are received at the mobile communication terminal. At least a first data conveying signal is received in the mobile communication terminal, and one or more signal components required by the model are extracted from the first data conveying signal. A determination is made whether the model is suitable for computing the covariance matrix for the first data conveying signal based on a predefined rule. The covariance matrix is computed in the mobile communication terminal using at least one of the model and an empirical-based estimation of the covariance matrix. The covariance matrix is selected in response to the determination.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving reference signals in a mobile communication terminal, which is designed to receive data-carrying signals that are transmitted from a base station using one of multiple predefined Modulation and Coding Schemes (MCSs). One or more pre-calculated mappings between Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and error rate for one or more of the MCSs are held in the communication terminal. The pre-calculated mappings are adjusted according to one or more transmission parameters of the data-carrying signals. Measures indicative of respective actual spectral efficiencies that are achievable by the MCSs are estimated based on the adjusted mappings using the received reference signals. A preferred MCS is selected based on the estimated measures, and feedback that is indicative of the preferred MCS is sent to the base station.

    Abstract: A mobile user equipment includes a user equipment clock and a dual mode time tracker. The clock periodically wakes up the user equipment. The dual mode time tracker uses a serving cell reference signal to correct timing errors of the user equipment clock with respect to a network clock while timing errors remain minimal and otherwise uses a serving cell synchronization signal to correct timing errors of the user equipment clock. The dual mode time tracker also sets a next wakeup time as a function at least of the size of the timing errors.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving at a receiver a signal including reference symbols that is sent over a communication channel from a transmitter to the receiver. A response of the communication channel is estimated by applying one or more weighting values to the reference symbols. A noise correction factor is computed based on the weighting values. An estimate of a noise level in the received signal is computed based on the estimated response of the communication channel and the noise correction factor. The received signal is decoded based on the estimate of the noise level.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving a signal in a frequency band, which is assignable at least to a communication protocol in which Cyclic Prefixes (CP) are added to symbols having a predefined symbol interval. Multiple autocorrelations of the received signal are computed with a fixed time offset that depends on the symbol interval defined in the communication protocol, and the multiple autocorrelations are accumulated to produce a cumulative autocorrelation. An identification is made, based on the cumulative autocorrelation, whether the received signal is formatted in accordance with the communication protocol.
