In general, this disclosure describes techniques for demodulating wireless signals. In particular, the techniques of this disclosure dynamically select between two or more demodulators based on channel quality information measured over a plurality of measurement periods. For example, a wireless communication device (WCD) may switch from a first demodulator to a second demodulator when the channel quality information associated with the demodulators indicates a better channel quality for the second demodulator than the first demodulator for a consecutive number of measurement periods. As another example, the WCD may compute, for each measurement period, the difference between the channel quality information associated with each of the demodulators, sum the differences, and switch demodulators when the total accumulation of the differences exceeds a threshold.

Techniques for filtering noisy estimates to reduce estimation errors are described. A sequence of input values (e.g., for an initial channel impulse response estimate (CIRE)) is filtered with an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter having at least one coefficient to obtain a sequence of output values (e.g., for a filtered CIRE). The coefficient(s) are updated based on the sequence of input values with an adaptive filter, a bank of prediction filters, or a normalized variation technique. To update the coefficient(s) with the adaptive filter, a sequence of predicted values is derived based on the sequence of input values. Prediction errors between the sequence of predicted values and the sequence of input values are determined and filtered to obtain filtered prediction errors. The coefficient(s) of the IIR filter are then updated based on the prediction errors and the filtered prediction errors.

Techniques to quickly adjust an SIR target toward a final value needed to achieve a specified target BLER for a data transmission. The outer loop may be implemented with multiple modes. The SIR target may be maintained fixed in a hold mode, adjusted in large down steps to speed up convergence in an acquisition mode, and adjusted by a small down step and a large up step for good and erased blocks, respectively, in a tracking mode. Various schemes may be used to adjust the SIR target by larger down steps in the acquisition mode. These schemes may be used even if data is transmitted intermittently, the target BLER is set to a low value, and/or one or multiple transport channels are used for data transmission. The SIR target may be boosted by a particular amount upon transitioning from the acquisition mode to the tracking mode.

Techniques are provided to control the transmit power for data transmission on multiple transport channels having different signal quality (SIR) targets. A single SIR target is maintained for all transport channels, and this SIR target is adjusted based only on active transport channels. For each update interval, a data processor processes at least one data block received in the current update interval on at least one of the transport channels and provides the status of each received data block. A controller increases the SIR target based on an up step if any received data block is erased and decreases the SIR target based on a down step if all received data blocks are good. If any received data block is erased, the down step used to adjust the SIR target may be set to the smallest down step size required by all transport channels with erased data blocks.
摘要:
Disclosed are methods and apparatus for predicting a channel quality indicator in a communication system, and in particular a delayed receiver. A disclosed method for determining the predictive channel quality indicator for a delayed receiver includes determining at least one channel quality indicator from a non-delayed receiver. The method also includes determining another channel quality indicator from the delayed receiver, and then calculating the predictive channel quality indicator for the delayed receiver through a function of the channel quality indicators from the non-delayed receiver and the channel quality indicator from the delayed receiver. Corresponding apparatus are also disclosed.

摘要:
Techniques for power control that avoids outer loop wind-up are disclosed. In one aspect, wind-up of a target power level is detected, and the target power level is modified in response. In another aspect, unwinding of the target power level is detected, after which the target power level is determined without considering wind-up. Various other aspects are also presented, including wind-up and unwinding detection procedures, and target power level modification procedures. These aspects have the benefit of reducing the time that transmit power exceeds that which is necessary, thus increasing system capacity and performance, and mitigating misallocation of system resources.
