    Abstract: A method of reducing power consumption in a communication device includes a step of acquiring a signal on a common pilot channel of a radio communication system. A next step includes detecting predetermined bits in the signal on the common pilot channel indicating activity on paging channels of the radio communication system. When no paging channel activity is indicated in the second step, a last step includes powering down portions of the electrical circuitry of the communication device so as to reduce power consumption, and when paging channel activity is indicated in the second step, a next step includes powering up portions of the electrical circuitry of the communication device such that those paging channels indicating activity are monitored by the communication device.

    Abstract: A receiver configured for: a) receiving (410) a first OFDM symbol and generating a plurality of demodulated symbols for the first OFDM symbol; b) generating (420) decoder output code symbols corresponding to a subset of the plurality of demodulated symbols; c) determining (430) that a set of the decoder output code symbols make up a set of reference symbols corresponding to at least a portion of the subset of the plurality of demodulated symbols; d) generating (440) the set of reference symbols; e) generating (450) a set of channel estimates based on the set of reference symbols and the at least a portion of the subset of the plurality of demodulated symbols, for use in decoding a current OFDM symbol; and f) repeating steps b-e until a channel estimate for each demodulated symbol corresponding to the first OFDM symbol has been generated.

    Abstract: A transmitting device (100) transmits a first packet, comprising a second encryption vector that is encrypted using a first encryption vector. The transmitting device (100) transmits a second packet that is encrypted using the second encryption vector if an acknowledgement message is received withi n a predetermined time after transmitting the first packet; otherwise, the fir st packet is re-transmitted. Upon receipt of the first packet, a receiving devi ce (102) decrypts the first packet using the first encryption vector and transmits the acknowledgement message. Upon receipt of the second packet; th e receiving device (102) attempts to decrypt a portion of the second packet using the first and second encryption vectors. If the portion of the second packet was successfully decrypted using the first encryption vector, the receiving device (102) re-transmits the acknowledgement message for the firs t packet; otherwise, it transmits an acknowledgement message for the second packet.

    Abstract: A method of reducing power consumption in a communication device includes a step of acquiring (204) a signal on a common pilot channel of a radio communication system. A next step includes detecting (206) predetermined bits in the signal on the common pilot channel indicating activity on paging channels of the radio communication system. When no paging channel activity is indicated in the second step, a last step includes powering down (208) portions of the electrical circuitry of the communication device so as to reduce power consumption, and when paging channel activity is indicated in the second step, a next step includes powering up (210) portions of the electrical circuitry of the communication device such that those paging channels indicating activity are monitored by the communication device.
