摘要： A wireless communication receiver obtains improved performance under certain fast fading conditions by basing one or more received signal processing operations on pre-despreading chip sample correlations rather than on post-despreading noise correlations, but preserves soft scaling information by determining one or more scaling factors that relate the chip sample correlations to the noise correlations. By way of non-limiting examples, a Generalized RAKE receiver circuit may base combining weight generation on chip sample correlations rather than on post-despreading pilot symbol noise correlations, but scale the combining weights as a function of the one or more scaling factors, or, equivalently, scale the combined values generated from the combining weights. Similar scaling may be performed with respect to chip equalization filter combining weights in a chip equalization receiver circuit. Further, Signal-to-Interference Ratio (SIR) estimation may be improved in terms of fast fading responsiveness by using chip sample correlations, while preserving the proper scaling.

摘要： Methods and apparatus for determining an impairment covariance matrix for use in an interference-suppressing CDMA receiver are disclosed. In several of the disclosed embodiments, precise information regarding signal propagation delays is not needed. An exemplary method includes the selection of a plurality of processing delays for processing a received CDMA signal. Net channel coefficients for the processing delays are estimated and used to calculate an impairment covariance matrix. The impairment covariance matrix is calculated as a function of the estimated net channel coefficients and the processing delays, without estimating a propagation medium channel response for the received signal.

摘要： Exemplary received signal processing may be based on maintaining a model of received signal impairment correlations, wherein each term of the model is updated periodically or as needed based on measuring impairments for a received signal of interest. An exemplary model comprises an interference impairment term scaled by a first model fitting parameter, and a noise impairment term scaled by a second model fitting parameters. The model terms may be maintained based on current channel estimates and delay information and may be fitted to measured impairment by adapting the model fitting parameters based on the measured impairment. The modeled received signal impairment correlations may be used to compute RAKE combining weights for received signal processing, or to compute Signal-to-Interference (SIR) estimates. Combined or separate models may be used for multiple received signals. As such, the exemplary modeling is extended to soft handoff, multiple antennas, and other diversity situations.

摘要： The quality of a received signal in a non-linear receiver is estimated using a coupling matrix G or Q that describes the interaction of symbols in the received signal with other symbols and/or how the impairment (noise and interference) interacts in the received signal. The coupling matrix is also useful for joint detection. The signal quality estimate may include, e.g., the minimum eigenvalue, and other functions, such as the determinant and trace of the coupling matrix. When G or Q varies with each block, as in CDMA systems employing longcode scrambling, a representative matrix can be used, such as a matrix of RMS values or average magnitudes of real and imaginary components. The signal quality estimate can be expressed as a bit error rate (BER).

摘要： A receiver comprises plural receive antennas and electronic circuitry. The plural receive antennas are configured to receive, on plural subcarriers transmitted over a radio interface, a frequency domain signal that comprises contribution from a block of time domain symbols. The electronic circuitry is configured or operable to perform symbol detection of time domain symbols comprising the block by performing a multi-stage joint detection procedure comprising plural stages, and thus serves as a detector (40). For a first stage the block is divided into a first number of sub-blocks each having a sub-block first size. For a second stage the block is divided into a second number of sub-blocks each having a sub-block second size, the sub-block second size being greater than the sub-block first size. For each stage a detector (40) formulates frequency domain combining weights and uses the frequency domain combining weights for combining multiple receive versions of each subcarrier to provide candidate symbol combination values for symbols in each sub-block of the respective stage. For the second stage the detector (40) is further configured to use the candidate symbol combination values of the first stage to formulate joint hypotheses to serve as candidates for the joint detection operation of the second stage.

摘要： A pilot channel signal for time-division multiplexing with one or more traffic channel signals in a broadcast/multi-cast signal and for code-division multiplexing with a continuously transmitted pilot channel signal is described. In an exemplary method for transmitting a broadcast/multicast signal, a pilot symbol sequence is obtained for each slot of one or more frames of the broadcast/multicast signal, so that the pilot symbol sequence varies for each slot of a given frame. The pilot symbol sequence for each slot is spread with a channelization code, and the spread pilot symbol sequence for each slot is scrambled, using a scrambling code, to form a first pilot channel signal. The first pilot channel signal is transmitted so that it is time-division multiplexed with one or more traffic channel signals transmitted during each slot and code-division multiplexed with a second pilot channel signal transmitted during all slots of the one or more frames.

摘要： In one of its aspects, the technology concerns a method of processing a signal which includes physical data channels which have been channelized using spreading codes. The method comprises (1) despreading unoccupied spreading codes (e.g., codes which are essentially unobscured by traffic data) included in the signal to obtain unoccupied code despread values, (2) using the unoccupied code despread values to form an impairment covariance matrix; and (3) using the impairment covariance matrix along with a channel estimate to form a processing parameter. The processing parameter can be one of combining sets and a signal quality estimate. In another of its aspects, the technology concerns a coherent, linear equalizer apparatus configured to process a signal which includes physical data channels which have been channelized using spreading codes. The equalizer apparatus comprises plural delay fingers (32) configured to despread unoccupied spreading codes included in the signal to obtain unoccupied code despread values, and a generator (60) configured to use the unoccupied code despread values to form an impairment covariance matrix.

摘要： A device that estimates information from a signal includes a receiver for receiving an input signal and electronic processing circuitry. The electronic processing circuitry generates a matrix associated with the input signal and determines an approximation of an inverse of the matrix based on the adjoint of the matrix and a scaling factor associated with the determinant of the matrix. This approximation avoids possible mathematical difficulties that may be encountered in certain situations when a typical matrix inversion is calculated. The approximated inverse matrix is applied to the input signal to transform the input signal into an output signal. Information associated with the input signal is then determined based on the output signal.
