Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention include devices, systems and methods for optimized camping on a cell. One method can include beginning a power scan of a range of radio-frequency channel numbers as part of an acquisition. Power can be measured for a first set of radio-frequency channel numbers at a time using adjacent channel interference detection. An average power can be computed for each radio-frequency channel number once the range has been scanned a predetermined number of times. Other aspects, embodiments and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Access terminals are adapted to determine a tone location even when the tone is asymmetric. According to one example, an access terminal can obtain a plurality of samples for a received tone. The access terminal may detect which sample of the plurality of samples exhibits a maximum correlation value. The access terminal may further determine a location of the received tone based on the sample exhibiting the maximum correlation value. In some examples, the location of the received tone may be determine based on the sample exhibiting the maximum correlation value when a predicted signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is above a predetermined threshold. Otherwise, the access terminal may determine the tone location based on a central location between a first sample with a correlation value above a predefined threshold and a first subsequent sample with a correlation value below the predefined threshold. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.

A method for wireless communications is described. The method includes beginning a voice call using a voice services over adaptive multi-user channels on one slot receiver. Pilot signal knowledge is obtained. Interferers knowledge is also obtained. Error metrics are computed using the pilot signal knowledge and the interferers knowledge. The method further includes selecting between the voice services over adaptive multi-user channels on one slot receiver and a legacy receiver for the voice call based on the error metrics. Other aspects, embodiments and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provides a wireless communication apparatus configured to handle adjacent-channel interference (ACI) and spur. The apparatus receives a signal utilizing a communication interface. The apparatus is configured to perform a single discrete Fourier transform (DFT) on the signal to generate frequency domain data. The apparatus is further configured to determine respective energy of a plurality of adjacent channels of the signal utilizing the frequency domain data. The apparatus is further configured to determine one or more potential interfering channels among the adjacent channels, wherein each of the potential interfering channels has an energy greater than a qualifying threshold. The apparatus is further configured to identify one or more dominant interfering channels from among the potential interfering channels. The apparatus is further configured to detect ACI based on the one or more dominant interfering channels.
Abstract:
Fast Associated Control Channel (FACCH) information is combined if a first block of FACCH information and a repeated block of FACCH information each fail a respective integrity check. An algorithm for realizing repeated FACCH diversity combining gains for different codec and discontinuous transmission (DTX) configurations is applicable to Full Rate codecs, Half Rate codecs, and discontinuous transmission scenarios. A pair of buffers may be used in a ping-pong fashion to store decoding soft or hard decisions for failed FACCH blocks.

Abstract:
Co-channel communications methods, systems, and devices are provided. Embodiments can be utilized to allow multiple users on one time slot (MUROS). For example, a method for wireless communication by a first remote station can comprise receiving a first co-channel signal that has a first amplitude and a second co-channel signal that has a second amplitude, wherein a difference between the first amplitude and the second amplitude is less than a threshold; selecting one of the first co-channel signal and the second co-channel signal; and demodulating the selected co-channel signal. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
