A method and an apparatus for scaling demodulated data symbols contained in a packet to generate scaled log-likelihood ratios for Turbo decoding are disclosed. A packet consists of one or more subpackets depending on the type of packet. Each subpacket is identified by a subpacket identification number. The payload size of the packet and the subpacket identification number may be determined by decoding a reverse rate indicator (RRI) channel. A scale factor which is associated with a specific subpacket identification number and a specific payload size results in a performance measure that is closest to an expected performance measure. The scale factor is used for scaling the demodulated data symbols to generate scaled log-likelihood ratios for Turbo decoding.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques for managing resources for cooperative uplink transmission. A base station may determine different groups for a plurality of user equipments (UEs) participating in cooperative uplink transmission, and transmit mode configurations indicating whether or not UEs in each group are configured to transmit data as a data source or to relay data received from another UE configured to transmit data as a data source. A UE may participate, with one or more other UEs, in cooperative uplink transmission to the base station, wherein each UE belongs to a group. The UE may determine, for a transmission time interval (TTI), at least one operation to perform for the cooperative uplink transmission based, at least in part, on a group number of a group to which the UE belongs and an index of the TTI.

An apparatus and a method for a control channel power allocation in a communication system are disclosed. The method of control channel power allocation in an embodiment includes sorting a plurality of access terminals in an order of increasing required medium access control (MAC) channel power into a plurality of bins, sorting the access terminals with equal required MAC channel power in an order of decreasing forward link signal to interference and noise ratio (FL_SINR) if two or more access terminals have equal required MAC channel power, and determining total available ARQ power based upon total MAC channel power, total power allocated to reverse power control (RPC) channels, and total power allocated to reverse activity bit (RAB) channels.

Techniques for efficiently sending and receiving data in a wireless communication system are described herein. The techniques utilize a slot structure that is backward compatible with existing design. The techniques include sending and receiving forward link packets that occupy less than a full slot of the slot structure. An output waveform, which includes at least one slot, is generated at an access point. Each slot is segmented into two half-slots, wherein at least one half-slot includes a data unit of a packet. At a terminal, the output waveform is received and processed to extract the data unit and the data unit is processed to determine whether it is accurate. The terminal also generates ACK/NACK information in response to the results of processing the data unit and transmits channel information including the ACK/NACK information. The access point interprets the ACK/NACK information to determine if the data unit should be resent.

Spatial pilot to support MIMO receivers in a multi-antenna and multi-layer transmission communication system. A first layer pilot for a single layer transmission is repeated across subbands in a first OFDM symbol and the first layer pilot is also repeated offset from the first OFDM symbol in an adjacent second OFDM symbol. Additional transmission layers may also be transmitted each include a separate pilot generated and repeated in the first symbol and repeated offset form the separate pilot in an adjacent second symbol. The first and second OFDM symbols are then transmitted and received to characterize the receive channels.

摘要:
A data-optimized communication system provides support for legacy access terminals, such as access terminals operating under the 1xEV-DO standard. The system also supports multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications with access terminals configured to support MIMO. A number of MIMO spatial signatures are predefined or negotiated. MIMO rank and an identifier of the spatial signature determined at the MIMO access terminal are sent on the I-Branch and Q-Branch of the existing 1xEV-DO structure. In one embodiment, 1-bit rank and 3-bit spatial signature are transmitted through the I-Branch as a 4-bit symbol, replacing the data rate control (DRC) channel. In another embodiment, a 4-bit spatial signature is transmitted through the I-Branch, also replacing the DRC channel. A 2-bit rank is transmitted together with a 4-bit DRC channel through the Q-Branch. The 2-bit rank and the DRC channel can be distinguished because they are sent using different orthogonal codeword Walsh covers.
