    摘要: Methods and apparatus for calculating spatial processing strategies in adaptive antenna array processing systems. Reference signal quality, intersymbol interference, data processed and received signal quality can be determined by burst type or remote device type and used to determine a synthetic signal level for use in developing a spatial processing strategy. A synthetic signal have an isotropically distributed component can be added to the antennas in the array or the diagonal elements of the received signal covariance matrix to develop uplink and downlink spatial processing strategies. Different synthetic signals at different signal levels can be used to develop different uplink and downlink spatial processing strategies. The downlink signal level can be larger than the uplink signal level. Uplink and downlink processing strategies can be developed in substantially the same way.

    摘要: An embodiment of the invention provides a method for effecting switchback on a spatial division multiple access (SDMA) PHS channel. A communication signal is broadcast over each of one or more SDMA channels of a multi-access channel to one or more corresponding user terminals. A set of transmit spatial weights is determined for a synchronization burst to a user terminal attempting to reestablish communication over an SDMA channel of the multi-access channel. The set of transmit spatial weights is determined such that interference caused by one or more communication signals to the synchronization burst is reduced.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are provided that determine a frequency dependent calibration vector for a set of transmit or receive chains of a radio communications system using only differential phase and amplitude between the transmit chains and the receive chains, respectively. In one embodiment, the invention includes an antenna array adapted to transmit and receive radio communications signals with a plurality of other terminals, a transmit chain to transmit a calibration signal through the antenna array to a transponder on at least two different frequency bands, and a receive chain to receive through the antenna array a transponder signal from the transponder, the transponder signal being received on at least two different frequency bands and being based on the calibration signal. A signal processor determines a frequency dependent calibration vector based on the at least two frequency bands of the transponder signal as received through the receive chain by comparing relative characteristics for the transponder signal at a first one of the at least two frequencies to relative characteristics for the transponder signal at a second one of the at least two frequencies.

    摘要: Time-varying error between a prescribed magnetic field and an actual magnetic field is identified from a self-encoding technique and the measurement of detected responses to various magnetic read-out gradients. The gradients can be a sinusoidal, step function, or other suitable form which enables the actual responses to be obtained from which transfer functions can be defined. In one embodiment, the data can effectively frequency sample the transfer function of the system. A gradient-recalled echo occurs each time the self-encode lobe is refocussed, and the phase of the echo peak is used to estimate the time variation of the main magnetic field, B.sub.0 (t).
