A Multicode (MC) Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) receiver receives J encoded multicode channels (where J>1) over L multiple air signal paths (where L>1) and forms a decorrelator output vector in which for each of the J multicode channels, the interference caused by the other J−1 multicode channels has been cancelled. When the MC CDMA receiver is a coherent receiver, a pilot interference canceller cancels a received pilot signal from the J channel code of each of the received J multicode channels prior to forming the decorrelator output vector.

A code division multiple access system method and apparatus provides for allocation of increased bandwidth to a requesting mobile station. An access controller receives a data burst request (from either a requesting mobile station or from an external network already in connection with the mobile station) requesting a first data rate in excess of the basic data rate B allocated to a mobile station of a first cell. The access controller determines an increased data rate which is to be granted to said mobile station without causing excessive interference at said first cell and at least one adjacent cell and transmits a data burst assignment to a base station of said first cell indicating the increased data rate which has been granted to said mobile station. In another feature, the access controller processes a data burst request received from a mobile station involved in a soft handoff between multiple base stations and negotiates with those base stations for an increased data rate which may be granted to the requesting mobile station. One feature enables additional interactions to further refine the allocation process. A variety of system architectures are also described.

A Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA) receiver removes the pilot signal from the received signal. The pilot signal is defined by its multipath parameters (amplitudes, phase shift and delays) and its signature sequence. Since this information is known at the user's receiver terminal (i.e., handset), the pilot signals of the interfering multipath components of the baseband received signal are detected and removed prior to demodulation of the desired multipath component. The pilot signal may be cancelled prior to or following the data accumulation stage. The pilot signal cancellation can be switched on and off depending on the detected path signal level.

A Multi-Code (MC) Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) receiver receives N (where N.gtoreq.1) encoded signal channels over multiple air signal paths. The N signal channels are encoded using a properly chosen subset of Walsh codes based on a Walsh-Matrix, W.sup.M, where M is a power of two. In the disclosed MC-CDMA receiver, a timing correlator means recovers the timing and control signal for the N signal channels received over any particular signal path; a FWHT circuit together with a second correlator means decodes all of the N signal channels.

A code division multiple access system provides a way of allocating an increased data rate to a requesting mobile station. A mobile station requesting a data rate in excess of the basic data rate sends received pilot strength data for its base station and base stations in adjacent cells. The received pilot strength data is used to determine an increased data rate to be assigned to the requesting mobile station. One feature assigns an increased data rate when the received pilot strength data has a predetermined relationship to an established threshold. Another feature utilizes a series of threshold levels, each pair of levels associated with a different permitted data rate. Using the received pilot strength data, a data rate is determined which satisfies all adjacent cell interference concerns. Another feature uses average adjacent cell capacity loads rather than threshold levels, together with the received pilot strength data, to determine the appropriate increased data rate to be assigned to a user requesting an increased data rate.

The invention relates to the use of CDMA techniques. Data signals to be transmitted from a plurality of wireless devices are spread across a common bandwidth. The data signals are received by a base station as a composite spread signal. The base station partially despreads the composite spread signal with unique codes to extract data signals from individual wireless devices. The data rate and quality of service requirements for each wireless device are used to calculate a power factor and a control signal is sent to control the power from a particular wireless device. In addition, a probability of transmission value is calculated based on an equivalent current load value and an equivalent population value. The probability of transmission value determines whether a particular wireless device is allowed access to an uplink frequency channel.

A packetized cellular system in which a mobile quasi-periodically transmits a beacon signal containing an ID number to a first base station in the cell in which it is located for storage with the ID's of other active mobiles in the cell. A copy of a list of the active mobiles in that cell is transmitted to all adjacent cells where they are placed on non-active list. Control of a mobile is handed-off to a second base station upon the receipt of a transmitted ID number of the mobile at the second base station. The mobile is then listed as active in the database of the second base station and non-active in the first base station.
摘要:
A method of providing local autonomous control of channel allocation of a cellular telecommunications network. In one prior art method, which can be identified as the timid method, a channel is selected for use by an incoming user if it is not being used by any of the cells which surround it. Otherwise, another channel is selected according to the same rule. The channels are tested in random order and a call is blocked if all of the channels are in use. For heavy loading, because of the vagaries of the way the demand for channels occurs, this method can result in inefficient channel deployment. In another method, which can be identified as the aggressive method, a channel is selected for use by an incoming user even if that channel is currently being used in the surrounding cells. If the channel is in use, the incoming user "bumps" the current user off the channel in the timid mode. The "bumped" user is then forced to find and use another channel. With this method, an unreasonable number of reconfigurations and an unreasonable number of dropped calls can result, especially when the system is heavily loaded. This invention integrates the aggressive and timid methods to obtain the best of both: the former's improved performance and the latter's stability. Initially, the timid mode is used to look for a channel with acceptable interference. However, if the timid mode fails to obtain a channel, the call is not necessarily blocked. Instead, the mode of operation becomes more aggressive and the first channel tested that has only modest interference is taken. The "bumped" user on that channel then attempts to locate another channel. If the "bumped" user is unsuccessful, the incoming user must then retreat and is blocked.
