    • According to the teachings presented herein, a wireless communication apparatus compensates for timing misalignment in its received signal processing. In at least one embodiment, the apparatus estimates a set of path delays for a received signal and sets processing delays on the estimated path delays. The apparatus jointly hypothesizes combinations of fractional timing offsets for two or more paths, and computes a decision metric for each joint hypothesis that indicates the accuracy of the joint hypothesis. As non-limiting examples, the decision metric may be a signal quality metric, or a distance metric (such as between a measured net channel response and an effective net channel response reconstructed as a function of the combination of fractional timing offsets included in the joint hypothesis). The apparatus evaluates the decision metrics to identify a best estimate of timing misalignment, and correspondingly compensates coherent processing of the received signal.

    • A mobile receiver having a multi-mode interference suppression function and a way to estimate its speed utilizes a parametric approach to interference suppression at high speeds, and a nonparametric approach at low speeds. In particular, if the mobile receiver is currently operating in a nonparametric mode and its speed exceeds a first predetermined threshold, the mobile receiver switches to a parametric mode. Conversely, if the mobile receiver is currently in parametric mode and its speed is less than a second predetermined threshold, the mobile receiver switches to nonparametric mode. In one embodiment, the speed may be estimated by a Doppler frequency in the received signal, and the thresholds are Doppler frequencies. In one embodiment, the first and second thresholds are different, creating a hysteresis in the mode switching.

    • A combined processor, such as might be used in a mobile handset or hands-free communication device, provides residual echo suppression and noise reduction while eliminating the need for explicit comfort noise generation. Operating within a near-end communication device, the processor receives an echo-canceled signal that is derived from a near-end input signal, and generates an output signal for subsequent transmission to a far-end communication device by applying a noise attenuation factor to the echo-canceled signal or to an average of that signal. The processor maintains the average signal across periods of speech and non-speech. During far-end-modes of operation, where only incoming audio from the far-end is active, the processor substitutes the average signal for the echo-canceled signal, such that a far-end listener receives the natural sounding average signal without receiving the objectionable, residual echo that may be in the echo-canceled signal.

    • Path delay information generated by a path searcher module of a wireless receiver is used to generate net channel coefficients for use in suppressing interference from a received signal. According to one embodiment, interference is suppressed from a signal transmitted over a communication channel including transmit and receive pulse shaping filters and a radio channel by generating net channel coefficients for the communication channel at processing delays such as G-Rake finger delays or chip equalizer tap delays. Medium channel coefficients are generated for the radio channel at estimated path delays as a function of the net channel coefficients. The net channel coefficients are regenerated at arbitrary delays as a function of the medium channel coefficients and an impairment covariance estimate is generated based at least in part on the regenerated net channel coefficients.

    • Adaptive reconfiguration of a wireless receiver is enabled based on channel geometry.

One or more of the receiver signal processing modules are reconfigurable based on the geometry factor.
