摘要:
A CDMA communication system is disclosed offering a near continuum of data rates up to a maximum rate. The disclosed CDMA communication system increases the data rate variability, without disturbing the orthogonality between users. An increased number of data rates is obtained by time multiplexing the data rates achievable with conventional CDMA systems to provide additional data rates for various multimedia applications. If a user is assigned a specific orthogonal code sequence, such as a Walsh sequence, which permits a maximum data rate, nR, with conventional systems, the user can obtain additional desired data rates up to the maximum rate nR, by time multiplexing the specific orthogonal code set. Desired bit rates are achievable for applications requiring bit rates that are not an integer multiple of the rates provided by conventional techniques. A fundamental rate of R or “fat pipe” rates of powers-of-two multiples of the fundamental rate can be achieved in a conventional manner. A desired rate up to the maximum “fat pipe” rate is achieved by time multiplexing the codes wkn to achieve rates between R and nR, where wkn, denotes the first nth of the spread spectrum code wk. The transmitter of the present invention achieves a rate conversion to match the appropriate codeword to the appropriate data rate, by employing buffering and reclocking of the data, with time multiplexing of the orthogonal Walsh codes corresponding to the available lower and upper rates. The rate conversion must be synchronized with the selection of the orthogonal Walsh code (corresponding to the lower and upper rates).

A wireless communication system and method includes antenna arrays at both the transmitter and receiver having a plurality of elements for very high data rate communication. Phased array antennas or directive fixed beam antennas are used with a beamwidth in azimuth and elevation less than 30° to increase the power margin and to decrease the delay spread of signals at the receiver to permit wireless data communications at high data rates in closed environments, for example, bursty transmissions and isochronous communications. The wireless communication system is capable of data transmission rates which exceed 1 Gbps with propagation losses of up to at least 60 dB relative to one meter.

A method of wireless communication is disclosed, in which polarization diversity can be utilized to improve fading performance or to increase the capacity of the communication channel in a scattering environment. Complementary signal information is impressed upon, or derived from, corresponding electric and magnetic polarized field components of a transmitted or intercepted electromagnetic wave. Four, five, or even six independent signal channels can thereby be utilized for communication using a localized antenna arrangement.

Disclosed is a multiple-beam transmitting system for use in a wireless telecommunication system, including a radio transmitter assembly, which can be situated at the bottom of a base station tower, and a transmitter subassembly that can be situated atop the base station tower. The radio transmitter assembly is operative to modulate and frequency translate a plurality of input information-bearing signals. The signals are then combined to form a first FDM signal, which can then be routed to the transmitter subassembly via a single FDM cable running up the tower. The transmitter subassembly includes a power splitter for splitting the first FDM signal into a plurality of second FDM signals and a plurality of frequency translators, each for frequency translating one of the second FDM signals. Each frequency translator thereby places at least one of the information-bearing signals within a predetermined translated frequency band. A multiple-beam-antenna radiates a plurality of antenna beams, with each antenna beam transmitting at least one of the information-bearing signals placed by an associated frequency translator within the translated frequency band. A multiple beam receiving system can be employed to receive incoming signals from wireless terminals.
