Abstract:
The present invention relates to a decoder for tail-biting convolution codes and a method thereof. The decoder receives an encoding bit sequence in a convolutional encoding method from a channel, generates an expanded encoding bit sequence, Viterbi decodes the expanded encoding bit sequence, and generates decoded data. In addition, the decoder selects a central bit sequence of the decoded data, rearranges the central bit sequence, and generates final decoded data. Accordingly, the decoder has a simplified configuration for decoding the bit sequence encoded in the tail biting convolutional encoding method, and the decoder also decodes a bit sequence encoded in a zero-tail convolutional encoding method.
Abstract:
In a decoding apparatus in a portable Internet terminal, a channel encoded symbol received from a transmitter is decoded by one of a chase-combining scheme and a code-combining scheme selected based on an ID value of the subpacket indicating a start position of the symbol. In this case, the chase-combining scheme is partly used for the encoded symbol of the information bit. With such a mode, decoding can be performed at a low code rate.

The present invention relates to a signal detection method and a receiving apparatus in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system. More particularly, the present invention relates to a signal detection device in a MIMO system using a spatial multiplexing (SM) method. In the signal detection method, a channel is estimated and layers are rearranged according to a predetermined layer arrangement rule. QR-decomposition is performed by using a rearranged system model, all constellation points in a symbol of a layer having the lowest reliability are considered, and symbols are detected by using a sequential interference elimination method.

The present invention relates to a mobile station of an OFDMA system and a transmit power control method thereof. The mobile station includes a modulator, a variable gain amplifier, a gain controller, and a power controller. The modulator modulates transmit data according to the number of allocated subchannels, and the variable gain amplifier amplifies the transmit data. The gain controller controls a gain of the transmit data inputted to the variable gain amplifier according to a subchannel gain value corresponding to the number of subchannels. The power controller calculates a power control gain for controlling power of the transmit data except the subchannel gain value based on the signal received from the base station and outputs the power control gain to the variable gain amplifier.

Abstract:
In a frequency offset estimating device of a subscriber station of a communication system in which a plurality of sectors are allocated to a cell, the frequency offset estimating device extracts a preamble sequence from a downlink frame signal. The frequency offset estimating device estimates a phase offset of a sector to which the subscriber station belongs among the sectors by using the preamble sequence, and calculates the autocorrelation value for the respective signals of the preamble sequence. The frequency offset estimating device compensates the autocorrelation value by using the phase offset, and estimates a frequency offset from the sum of the phase offset compensated autocorrelation values.

The present invention relates to a Viterbi decoder and a Viterbi decoding method in a register exchange method. The Viterbi decoder receives an encoded bit sequence of a convolutional encoding method from a channel, generates an expanded encoded bit sequence by cyclically adding a part of the encoded bit sequence or the entire encoded bit sequence to the encoded bit sequence more than one time, performs a Viterbi decoding operation in a register exchange method, and generates decoded data. In addition, the Viterbi decoder selects an end bit sequence corresponding to the number of the unit of encoded bits among the decoded data, rearranges an order of the end bit sequence, and generates final decoded data.

A blind rate detection method in an asynchronous mobile communication system comprises: restoring data when a path selection (PS) value at a last bit's possible position satisfies a PS condition; determining whether a SER satisfies a SER condition when no error occurs in a CRC; determining whether to update a minimum value of PS values when the SER satisfies the SER condition; setting a PS value of the last bit's possible position as the minimum value of the PS values and the last bit's possible position as a last detection position when updating the minimum value; and repeating the above steps until the last bit's possible position reaches a maximum value, and outputting the last detection position when the last bit's possible position becomes the maximum value.
