    Abstract: A base station having the strongest downlink signal is identified by utilizing a unique slope of a pilot tone hopping sequence being transmitted by a base station. Specifically, base station identification is realized by determining the slope of the strongest received pilot signal, i.e., the received pilot signal having the maximum energy. In an embodiment of the invention, the pilot tone hopping sequence is based on a Latin Squares sequence. With a Latin Squares based pilot tone hopping sequence, all a mobile user unit needs is to locate the frequency of the pilot tones at one time because the pilot tone locations at subsequent times can be determined from the slope of the Latin Squares pilot tone hopping sequence. The slope and initial frequency shift of the pilot tone hopping sequence with the strongest received power is determined by employing a unique maximum energy detector. In one embodiment, the slope and initial frequency shift of the pilot signal having the strongest received power is determined by finding the slope and initial frequency shift of a predicted set of pilot tone locations having the maximum received energy. In another embodiment, the frequency shift of the pilot signal with the strongest, i.e., maximum, received power is estimated at each of times "t". These frequency shifts are employed in accordance with a prescribed relationship to determine the unknown slope and the initial frequency shift of the pilot signal.

    Abstract: An uplink synchronization and access control system is provided, in which mobile stations transmit certain timing and access signals in dedicated intervals in an uplink stream. Access control is illustratively implemented as a two-stage process, in which a given mobile first transmits a generic uplink access signal, in one of the intervals. If this access is accepted, the base station transmits an access acknowledgment, which contains initial timing and power corrections, along with initial channel assignments, on which the mobile can initiate a call set-up process. For re-synchronization, mobiles transmit timing synchronization signals in the dedicated timing and access intervals. The base station measures the arrival time of the signals, and sends back appropriate timing corrections. The invention thereby ensures that orthogonality between mobiles is maintained.

    Abstract: Tone sequences in a frequency hopping arrangement are generated and assigned by advantageously employing a combination of a sequence generator and a sequence assignor to generate sequences and assign them on a time slot by time slot basis. In a transmitter, the sequence generator and sequence assignor, in combination with a user tone assignor are employed to generate and assign tone sequences to a user on a time slot by time slot basis. In a receiver, the sequence generator and sequence assignor, in combination with a user tone identifier are employed to generate sequences and to identify incoming tone sequences to a user on a time slot by time slot basis. Specifically, the sequence assignment in a time slot is such that a prescribed plurality of sequences is assigned to a particular user. This partitioning of the tasks facilitates the use of a sequence generator that generates sequences with the desirable properties of interference and frequency diversity and, which, leaves the task of properly assigning these sequences among one or more users to the sequence assignor. The sequence assignor functions in such a manner that the interference and frequency diversity properties for the one or more users are preserved, and this is further facilitated by assigning sequences in such a manner that they maximally overlap prior assigned sequences. In one example of the invention, a Latin square based sequence is generated in accordance with a first prescribed process. In an embodiment of the invention, a Latin cube based sequence is generated in accordance with a second prescribed process. In another embodiment of the invention, a Latin hypercube of prescribed dimension based sequence is generated in accordance with a third prescribed process. In still another embodiment of the invention, the principles of the invention are employed to realize frequency band hopping.

    Abstract: aparelho e transceptor para uso em um sistema sem fio de acesso múltiplo de espectro disperso baseado em multiplexagem por divisão de freqüência ortogonal seqüências de tom em um arranjo de variação de freqüência são geradas e atribuídas empregando-se vantajosamente uma combinação de um gerador de seqüência e um atribuidor de seqüência para gerar seqüências e atribuir as mesmas em uma base de intervalo de tempo por intervalo de tempo. em um transmissor, o gerador de seqüência e atribuidor de seqüência, em combinação com um atribuidor de tom de usuário são empregados para gerar e atribuir seqüências de tom a um usuário em uma base de intervalo de tempo por intervalo de tempo. em um receptor, o gerador de seqüência e atribuidor de seqüência, em combinação com um identificador de tom de usuário são empregados para gerar seqüências e identificar seqüências de tom de entrada a um usuário em uma base de intervalo de tempo por intervalo de tempo. especificamente, a atribuição de seqüência em um intervalo de tempo é tal que uma pluralidade determinada de seqüências é atribuída a um usuário específico. esta divisão das tarefas facilita o uso de um gerador de seqüência que gera seqüências com as propriedades desejáveis de interferência e diversidade de freqüência e, que, deixa a tarefa de atribuir adequadamente estas seqüências entre um ou mais usuários ao atribuidor de seqüência. o atribuidor de seqüência funciona de tal modo que as propriedades de diversidade de freqüência e interferência para um ou mais usuários são preservadas, e isto é adicionalmente facilitado pela atribuição de seqüências de tal modo que as mesmas sobreponham ao máximo seqüências atribuídas anteriores. em uma modalidade da invenção, uma seqüência baseada em quadrado latino é gerada de acordo com um primeiro processo determinado. em uma segunda modalidade da invenção, uma seqüência baseada em cubo latino é gerada de acordo com um segundo processo determinado. em uma terceira modalidade da invenção, um hipercubo latino de seqüência baseada em dimensão determinada é gerada de acordo com um terceiro processo determinado. ainda em outra modalidade da invenção, os princípios da invenção são empregados para realizar a variação de banda de freqüência.
