    Abstract: A set of individually gain adjusted subscriber channels (402, 404, 411, 415) are formed via the use of a set of orthogonal subchannel codes (Wc, Ws, Wf) having a small number of PN spreading chips per orthogonal waveform period. Data to be transmitted via one of the transmit channels is low code rate error correction encoded and sequence repeated before being modulated with one of the subchannel codes, gain adjusted, and summed with data modulated using the other subchannel codes. The resulting summed data (410, 420) is modulated using a user long code and a pseudorandom spreading code (PN code) and upconverted for transmission. The use of the short orthogonal codes provides interference suppression while still allowing extensive error correction coding and repetition for time diversity to overcome the Raleigh fading commonly experienced in terrestrial wireless systems. The set of sub-channel codes may comprise four Walsh codes, each orthogonal to the remaining codes of the set. The use of four sub-channels is preferred as it allows shorter orthogonal codes to be used, however, the use of a greater number of channels and therefore longer codes is acceptable. Preferably, pilot data is transmitted via a first one of the transmit channels and power control data transmitted via a second transmit channel. The length, or number of chips, in each channel code may be different to further reduce the peak-to-average transmit power for higher rate data transmission.

    Abstract: A novel and improved method and apparatus for generating a constant data rate channel supporting signaling data transmission in an adjustable rate wireless communication system is described. In accordance with one aspect of the invention the rate at which the channel operates may be adjusted based on the particular use and environmental conditions such that the appropriate data rate up to a maximum capability can be achieved. User data is then placed into frames based on the selected rate. When available, signaling data is added into each frames in a predetermined amount. The resulting frame is encoded, repeated and punctured based on the selected rate and whether signaling data has been introduced, and transmitted via RF signals to the receive system. Upon reception, the frame is processed in accordance with having only user data and with having signaling data. That is, the frame is processed both as if it had signaling data and as if no signaling data were present. Once the frame is processed, the particular processing that is more likely to be correct is determined via error checking. If the signaling data processed frame is more likely to have be correct, the signaling data is separated from the user data and each processed accordingly. If the non-signaling data processing is determined to be more likely to be correct, the frame is processed as if it were entirely comprised of user data.

    Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus for transmitting a high rate data packet in a CDMA communication system. The transmission system transmits a first channel assignment message indicating the at least one additional channel that will be used to support the high rate data packet. The first channel assignment message is sent in advance of the onset of high rate data communications. In addition the present invention provides within the first frame of high rate data a duplicate channel assignment message. A remote receiver uses the channel assignment messages to initialize its demodulation elements to receive the additional information carried on the at least one additional channel.

    Abstract: Method and apparatus for high rate CDMA wireless communication in which a set of individually gain adjusted subscriber channels are formed via the use of a set of orthoganol subchannel codes (W1) having a small number of PN spreading chips per orthogonal wave form period. Data to be transmitted via one of the transmit channels is low code rate error correction encoded (134) and sequence repeated before being modulated with one of the subchannel codes, gain adjusted (152, 154, 156, 158), and summed (160) with data modulated using the other subchannel codes. The resulting summed data is modulated using a user long code and a pseudorandom spreading code (PN code) and upconverted for transmission.

    Abstract: Un método y aparato para instalar diversos tipos de datos, y a diversas velocidades, en un formato estructurado de manera unica para su transmision. Los datos para el formateo de transmision pueden ser datos de voz proporcionados por el vocodificador (14) o diferentes tipos de tráfico secundario. Los datos se organizan en estructuras de una duracion de tiempo predeterminada para su transmision por un microprocesador (18). Las estructuras de datos se organizan, dependiendo de que los datos, se encuentren a una de diversas velocidades de transmision de datos. Los datos del vocodificador se proporcionan por el vocodificador (14) a una de varias velocidades de transmision de datos y se organizan en la estructura de acuerdo a un formato predeterminado. Las estructuras pueden formatearse con una asignacion multiple de datos del vocodificador con datos no-vocodificados que se encuentran a una mayor velocidad de transmision de datos de estructura. Los diferentes tipos de datos no-vocodificados pueden organizarse a fin de encontrarse también a la mayor velocidad de transmision de datos de estructura. Pueden proporcionarse datos de control adicionales dentro de las estructuras de datos para soportar diversos aspectos de la transmision y recuperacion después de la recepcion.
