Abstract:
A method of performing wireless communication includes accumulating, by a user equipment (UE) during initial cell search, samples of received data over a maximum front-end bandwidth of the UE. The method also includes splitting the samples into smaller, non-overlapping spectrum chunks, and performing correlation-based detection on one or more of the smaller, non-overlapping chunks. The method further includes detecting a wireless communication system based on results of the correlation-based detection.
Abstract:
A method in a node (110, 115) comprises receiving (604) a signal, and collecting (608) a first set of sequences corresponding to a first piece of cellular information and a second set of sequences corresponding to a second piece of cellular information over multiple frames of the received signal, wherein the second piece of cellular information is encoded based at least in part on the first piece of cellular information. The method further comprises processing (612) the first set of sequences corresponding to the first piece of cellular information to determine the first piece of cellular information, and processing (616), using the determined first piece of cellular information, the second set of sequences corresponding to the second piece of cellular information to determine the second piece of cellular information simultaneously with the determination of the first piece of cellular information. The method defines a new cell search method for Narrowband Machine-to-Machine NB M2M devices using a new frame structure for PBSCH comprising a) Synchronization Sequence (SS):No separate sequences but a single sequence for both the frame timing estimation and frequency offset correction. (b) Cell ID Sequence (CIS): A separate sequence to determine the cell ID, after the frame timing and frequency offset is established. (c) Frame Index Indication Sequence (FIIS):In a final step the FIIS to determine the frame number.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for quickly acquiring synchronization of a signal in WCDMA communication system utilizing variable duration sample accumulation, validity testing of decoder estimates, and parallel decoding of multiple synchronization signals within a PERCH channel. The receiver (204) accumulates the samples necessary to reliably determine slot timing. Until slot timing estimates pass a validity test, samples are accumulated (304A, 304B) for frame timing estimates. Until frame timing estimates pass a validity test, samples are analyzed to determine the pilot offset of the channel.

There is provided a cell search apparatus and method in a mobile communication system. The cell search apparatus is slot time-synchronized by receiving a first synchronization code in each slot of a P-SCH frame and in addition receives over the slots of an S-SCH frame a base station group specific code representing one of base station groups and a base station specific code representing one of base stations in the base station group. In the cell search apparatus, a base station group specific code detecting unit detects the base station group specific code received on the S-SCH in the slot-synchronized state, and a base station specific code detecting unit detects a transmitting base station by detecting the base station specific code received following the base station group specific code.
Abstract:
A received communications signal is correlated with a common synchronization code to produce a synchronization detection signal. A component of the synchronization detection signal associated with a known synchronization signal is canceled from the synchronization detection signal to produce an interference-canceled synchronization detection signal. Timing of a synchronization signal is determined from the interference-canceled synchronization detection signal. According to one aspect, interference cancellation is achieved by generating a correlation of an estimated received known synchronization signal with the common synchronization code, canceling the correlation of the estimated received known synchronization signal with the common synchronization code from the synchronization detection signal to produce the interference-canceled synchronization detection signal. Timing of a synchronization signal may then be determined by accumulating the interference-canceled synchronization detection signal over a time interval, detecting a peak in the accumulated interference-canceled synchronization detection signal, and determining timing of a synchronization signal from the detected peak. According to another aspect, interference cancellation is achieved by accumulating the synchronization detection signal over a time interval, identifying a peak in the accumulated synchronization detection signal not associated with a known synchronization signal, and determining timing of a synchronization signal from the identified peak. Related terminal apparatus are also discussed.

Abstract:
A system for detecting and identifying the identity of a base station or cell which transmits a scrambling code is provided. According to one aspect of the system, the system is used to perform scrambling code detection of eight (8) primary cells (each scrambling code's X-component being spaced sixteen (16) chips apart) in a group. According to another aspect of the system, a single scrambling code generator is used to generate a master scrambling code. The master scrambling code is then used to create individual scrambling codes which are used in correlation with received signals to detect in parallel which one of the eight (8) possible primary cells in the group transmitted the received signals. According to yet another aspect of the system, each of the correlators maintains a corresponding X-component segment of the master scrambling code. For every sixteen (16) chips, a new X-component segment of the master scrambling code is introduced into one of the correlators, a X-component segment of the master scrambling code is dropped from another correlator, and X-component segments of the master scrambling code are sequentially shifted or propagated through the remaining correlators; and concurrent correlations are performed by the correlators using their respective corresponding X-component segments of the master scrambling code and newly received signals.

Abstract:
An angular velocity detector (108) detects the angular velocity of a known reference signal. A measurement section (109) measures the parameters indicating the reception quality of the known reference signal that has been demodulated. A control voltage generator (110) generates a VCO control voltage depending on the angular velocity and the parameters. A VCO (111) varies the carrier frequency in proportion to the control voltage produced by the control voltage generator (110) so that the carrier frequency may approach the carrier frequency of the received signal.
