In the method of processing soft handoff information at a base station, soft handoff information of a mobile station is received at the base station. The soft handoff information indicates at least a number of base stations in an active list of the mobile station. The active list is a list of base stations involved in a call of the mobile station. The base station applies a rules set to the soft handoff information to determine changes in the active list. The rules set requires more stringent conditions be met to add a base station to the active list when the active list includes a first number of base stations as compared to when the active list includes a second number of base stations; wherein the first number is greater than the second number. The determination results are then sent to the mobile station.

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides systems and methods for addressing the problem of transmitter/receiver assignment for softer handoff in CDMA systems as well as any other system that requires variable size allocation of processors in a resource sharing environment. An exemplary embodiment of a system for processing data received from data servers according to the present invention comprises a shared medium, a plurality of processors and a smaller plurality of intermediate nodes partitioned into K sets, wherein at the kth set, every “k” processors are associated with one intermediate node. The shared medium couples the data servers to the intermediate nodes. Additionally, the system may include a system controller for controlling the operation of the system and the assignment of processors to the intermediate nodes and to the data servers at the beginning of each service request and thereafter upon each modification request to the service.

Methods and systems are provided to calibrate an oscillator circuit to reduce frequency pulling as a result of a change in power to a portion of the oscillator circuit. In an embodiment, an oscillator is coupled to a clock buffer circuit and a tuning capacitor configured to tune a frequency of the oscillator to a baseline frequency required for cellular communications. A change in power to the clock buffer circuit initiates a change in an amount of capacitance seen by the oscillator, which negatively impacts the tuning of the oscillator. A register stores a frequency offset caused by the change in power, and the tuning capacitor is adjusted, using the frequency offset, in response to the change in power, such that the total amount of capacitance seen by the oscillator is not changed when the change in power occurs.

A method and apparatus for signal power ramp-up in a communication transmission. Payload data is identified for transmission. A power reference signal is determined for transmission prior to the payload data. The power reference signal and the payload data are combined to form a data burst for transmission. The combined data burst is transmitted as, wherein the power reference signal is transmitted prior to the payload data within the data burst. A feedback signal is provided based on the power reference signal portion of the transmitted data burst, and a pre-distortion signal is calibrated based on the feedback signal.

A power control module receives a dynamic power control signal and generates a differential bias signal proportional to the dynamic power control signal. An analog multiplexer receives a digital amplitude signal including n bits and receives the differential bias signal. The analog multiplexer multiplexes the digital amplitude signal with the differential bias signal in parallel and generates a first differential signal. A driver module receives the first differential signal and a second differential signal. The driver module generates a first drive signal proportional to the dynamic power control signal when a bit in said digital amplitude signal is a logic one and the driver module generates a second drive signal proportional to the second differential signal when a bit in said digital amplitude signal is a logic zero.

An addressing scheme for a packet-based multiaccess mobile communications system, which includes a plurality of mobile user stations and a plurality of network nodes, is provided. In such addressing scheme, each mobile station is assigned an address which is a combination (preferably, a concatenation) of a unique identifier of a network node with which the mobile station is currently associated and an identifier of the mobile station. The network node identifiers may be uniquely assigned by a network administrator, while the identifiers of the mobile stations may, for example, be set to a universal MAC address assigned to the station. The address may also include a port identifier which indicates the particular application flow associated with the accompanying packets. Similarly, each network node is assigned an address which is a combination (preferably, a concatenation) of its network node identifier and, preferably, an interface identifier. The address may also include a port identifier.

A distributed dynamic channel allocation algorithm for a multi-carrier CDMA cellular system having at least one mobile base station. The distributed dynamic channel allocation algorithm uses channel power measurements from both the requesting mobile station and the mobile base station attempting to allocate an available resource to the mobile station. The distributed dynamic channel allocation algorithm attempts to allocate the best available resource for the requesting mobile station, in terms of interference, while minimizing the amount of interruption that the allocated resource may cause to existing connections in neighboring cells. Thus, the distributed dynamic channel allocation algorithm follows a “least-interference, least-interruption” strategy. The distributed dynamic channel allocation algorithm is load balancing, since it tends to assign new resources to mobile base station with lighter loads.
