Abstract:
The invention relates to a data transmission method and a radio system implementing method. A transmitter has at least two modulation methods by which it can modulate a signal. One or more demodulators (106) of the receiver demodulates the received signal in a manner which corresponds to each modulation method used. The modulation method used for the signal is inferred in a reference block (110) from the impulse response estimate. The signal according to the inferred modulation method is detected in a detector (114).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a multiplexing method and a transceiver used in a TDMA radio system. The transceiver sets up a connection to another transceiver by transmitting modulated signals in time slots. The transceiver comprises coding means for channel-coding a signal that consists of bits and that is formed into a communication signal, and interleaving means for interleaving the bits of the channel-coded Signal into blocks of a predetermined size. The transceiver also comprises multiplexing means that receive blocks from the interleaving means and that multiplex the interleaved blocks of at least two channel-coded signals together. The transceiver further comprises modulation means for modulating the blocks multiplexed by the multiplexing means with at least four-level modulation before the modulated signal blocks are transmitted as a communication signal in a time slot, so that the transmission speed of the communication signal and the number of the connections to be established can be increased.

Abstract:
A method of simultaneously determining a DC offset and a channel impulse response from a received signal in a mobile communication system. The received signal Y comprising a set of training sequence bits that have been modulated prior to transmission. The modulated signals experience a certain phase shift and are rotated by a certain angle. The received signal may also comprise a DC offset component ADC that needs to be removed. By manipulation of the received signal samples with the knowledge of the original training sequence TRS and method of modulation used, it is possible to simultaneously estimate the communication channel's impulse response H and the DC offset ADC by finding the Least Square solution to a linear equation, such that the energy of the noise term introduced into the communication channel may be kept to a minimum.

The invention provides a data transmission solution in a telecommunication system. According to the invention, a data transmission scheme is selected for a first transceiver unit, which comprises a plurality of transmit antennas, on the basis of the quality of a communication link and transmit antenna correlation information associated with the first transceiver unit, from a list including at least the following data transmission schemes: transmitting different data from each antenna of the first transceiver unit, the data transmitted from one antenna being independent of the data transmitted from another antenna; and transmitting the same data from each antenna of the first transceiver unit and controlling the direction of the transmitted data according to the properties of a radio channel. The selection of the data transmission scheme is carried out during an active communication link between the first and a second transceiver unit.

A frequency error correction scheme applicable in a receiver of a mobile telecommunication system is presented. The present frequency error correction scheme is carried out in a time domain after an equalization process. The present frequency error correction scheme may be applied to a base station receiving signals transmitted according to a single-carrier frequency division multiple access communication scheme. The separation of different received signals for further processing is carried out in the frequency domain before the equalization and the frequency error correction.

Abstract:
The present invention proposes a method for estimating a signal variance of a received signal (y) transmitted via a transmission channel, said method comprising the steps of: estimating the energy (RSSI) of the received signal (y), estimating the energy (Emax) of channel impulse response (h) taps, and estimating said signal variance (VAR) of said received signal by subtracting said estimated energy of channel impulse response taps (Emax) from said estimated energy (RSSI) of said received signal, such that said signal variance is obtained as VAR=RSSI−Emax. The present invention also proposes a correspondingly adapted device.
