Abstract:
A code division multiple access communication system transmits a pilot and traffic signal over a shared spectrum. The pilot and traffic signal have an associated code. Signals are received over the shared spectrum. The received signals are sampled. The samples are delayed to produce a window. The window has evenly time spaced samples. Each window sample is despread with a pilot code. A weight for each despread pilot code window sample is determined using an adaptive algorithm. Each window sample is despread with a traffic code. Each despread traffic code window sample is weighted with a corresponding weight of the determined weights. The despread traffic code window sample are combined as data of the traffic signal.
Abstract:
A plurality of communication signals have differing spreading codes. Each communication has an associated code comprising chips. For each chip of each communication, a vector of that chip convolved with an impulse response is produced. For each communication, support blocks comprising the chip vectors are produced. A number of the chip vectors in a support block is based on that communication's spreading factor. A system response matrix is assembled. The system response matrix has symbol sub-matrices. Each symbol sub-matrix comprises a support block from each communication. Data of the communications is detected using the symbol response matrix.
Abstract:
A wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) and methods are used in a wireless communication system to process sampled received signals to establish and/or maintain wireless communications. A selectively controllable coherent accumulation unit produces power delay profiles (PDPs). A selectively controllable post processing unit passes threshold qualified magnitude approximation values and PDP positions to a device such as a rake receiver to determine receive signal paths.
Abstract:
A wireless communication method and system for assigning multi-paths to Rake receiver fingers. A Rake finger assignment database is established in which multi-path signals are categorized into a verified group and an unverified group. Each multi-path is assigned to an individual bin in the database. Each bin includes a pilot phase data field, an antenna data field, a code data field, an averaged signal strength data field, an assigned flag data field, a verification flag data field, an update flag data field, an assigned Rake finger number data field and an assignment time counter data field. The multi-path signals in the verified group are further categorized into an assigned subgroup and an unassigned subgroup. During a measurement interval, each of a plurality of newly measured multi-path signals is compared to the multi-path signals in the database and is processed accordingly.
Abstract:
A Node-B/base station receiver comprises at least one antenna for receiving signals. Each finger of a pool of reconfigurable Rake fingers recovers a multipath component of a user and is assigned a code of the user, a code phase of the multipath component and an antenna of the at least one antenna. An antenna/Rake finger pool interface provides each finger of the Rake pool an output of the antenna assigned to that Rake finger. A combiner combines the recovered multipath components for a user to produce data of the user.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an improved telecommunication receiver for receiving wireless multi-path communication signals. A novel RAKE receiver and a time diverse integration system for the calculation of the relative power of received signal samples are provided. Preferably, the receiver is embodied in a UE or base station of a CDMA wireless telecommunication system, such as a 3GPP system.
Abstract:
A plurality of communication signals is received. Each communication signal has an associated code. At least two of the communication signals has a different spreading factor. The associated codes have a scrambling code period. A total system response matrix has blocks. Each block has one dimension of a length M and another dimension of a length based on in part M and the spreading factor of each communication. M is based on the scrambling code period. Data of the received plurality of communication signals is received using the constructed system response matrix.

Abstract:
Apparatus and method for correlating a received communication of a known sequence over a wireless channel through the use of a finite impulse response (FIR) filter having a small number of taps to reduce hardware requirement by as much as one-half that of conventional techniques while obtaining amplitude degradation which is no worse than experienced when employing conventional techniques.
Abstract:
A first detector receives a received signal and extracts the data signals from the received signal. A hard decision converter converts soft symbols outputted by the first detector into hard symbols. An interference canceller extracts the voice signals from the received signal. A second detector is connected to the output of the interference canceller, and extracts the individual voice signals. The second detector is a different detector type than the first detector.
