    Abstract: The present invention is a novel and improved method and apparatus for supervising a potentially gated channel in a wireless communication system. The first method is an extension of the method used in IS-95 with empty frames simply ignored, but with potentially different thresholds. The mobile station maintains a counter of consecutive bad frames, COUNT1, and a counter of consecutive good frames, COUNT2. COUNT1 and COUNT2 are set to zero at the beginning of a call. For each frame received, the mobile station determines if it is a good frame, a bad frame, or an empty frame. If the received frame is a good frame, COUNT1 is reset to zero and COUNT2 is incremented by 1. If the received frame is a bad frame, COUNT1 is incremented by one and COUNT2 is reset to zero. If the received frame is an empty frame, COUNT1 and COUNT2 are unchanged. If COUNT1 reaches a threshold value, TH1, the mobile station shall disable its transmitter. Thereafter, if COUNT2 reaches a threshold value, TH2, the mobile station shall re-enable its transmitter. The mobile station resets its fade timer to X seconds whenever COUNT2 is greater than or equal to TH3.

    Abstract: A receiver receives data transmitted from a transmitter. The data is stored in a buffer, and a reliability value of the data is computed by a computing unit. A determining unit determines reliability of the data by comparing a reliability value of existing data in the buffer and a reliability value of the data. When the reliability value of the data is higher than a predetermined value, the existing data is combined with the data. Then, an error correcting unit performs error correcting on combined data obtained, and outputs decoded bits. If the combined data includes many errors, retransmission of the data is requested to the transmitter. When the reliability value of the data is lower than the predetermined value, retransmission of data is directly requested without combining the data with the existing data.

    Abstract: A base station controller includes circuitry for determining whether a transmitter is transmitting in a DTX mode or operation for a supplemental channel in a CDMA network. The invention includes the steps of determining frame quality metrics for data received on a fundamental and a supplemental channel. If the frame quality metric is good, meaning that the number of errors is below a defined threshold, on the supplemental channel, then the mobile station is not, by definition, within a DTX mode of operation. However, if each of the base stations that are on the active list of base stations for the mobile station report that the mobile station frame quality metric is not below or within a specified threshold, then the base station performs a calculation to determine whether the mobile station is in a DTX mode of operation or is transmitting a null set. Specifically, the base station calculates a signal to noise ratio for the pilot channel as well as for the supplemental channel and compares or determines a ratio of these two calculations. If the ratio is within or below a specified threshold, then an erasure has occurred. If not, then the mobile station did transmit in a DTX mode of operation.

    Abstract: A system and method for detection of rate determination algorithm errors in variable rate communications system receivers. The disclosed embodiments prevent rate determination algorithm errors from causing audible artifacts such as screeches or beeps. The disclosed system and method detects frames with incorrectly determined data rates and performs frame erasure processing and/or memory state clean up to prevent propagation of distortion across multiple frames. Frames with incorrectly determined data rates are detected by checking illegal rate transitions, reserved bits, validating unused filter type bit combinations and analyzing relationships between fixed code-book gains and linear prediction coefficient gains.

    Abstract: A method of improving frame erasure performance, in particular for slow frequency hopping channels with cyclic co-channel interference, by selection of the most suitable PBER threshold from a range of PBER thresholds. A burst quality metric is assigned to each burst in a frame and the bursts are then ranked in the order of the values of the assigned quality metrics. The differences in the metrics between successive bursts in the ranked order are measured. The position in the ranked order of the largest difference between bursts (dMAX) is used in the selection of the most suitable PBER threshold.

    Abstract: A data decoding scheme operates on individual code symbols within an encoded data stream, enabling data to be recovered from the code symbols at a high rate. The decoding scheme, typically included within a receiver of a digital communication system or data network, does not rely on processing and storing multiple code symbols and is unencumbered by storage memory elements and decoding rate limitations associated with receiving and processing blocks of multiple code symbols. The decoding scheme generates bit sequences corresponding to each alternate data state of a received code symbol. Error vectors are generated as a result of comparing each of the generated bit sequences to the received code symbol. The data state of data represented by the code symbol within the encoded data stream is recovered from the code symbol by selecting the minimum of the generated error vectors.

    Abstract: In a TDMA cellular telephone system, an error concealment method provides parameter interpolation based on soft quality measures that will enhance the speech quality under bad channel conditions compared to prior methods of repeating previous voice data frames. Specifically, the soft technique of the present invention uses a weighted combination of previous and present frame parameters, where the weighting reflects the probability of error. The present invention will improve the masking of errors compared to hard actions based on a binary detection, especially when the binary detection fails or when the received frame is declared as being "good". The method can also utilize parameter based soft information without increasing the bitrate.
