Abstract:
There is disclosed an optimal search method of DS-CDMA signals consisted of time-multiplexed pilot symbols and control symbols capable of maximizing the performance of a receiver when the signal is searched or SNR is measured and apparatus thereof. Further, the present invention proposes a method of maximizing the performance of a searcher using basically both energy of the pilot symbol and the control symbol wherein coherent integral lengths for two regions are differentiated when the receiver searches the signals, and different weights are given to the two regions when a coherent correlation value is finally non-coherently added, and a method of effectively estimating SNR.
Abstract:
Provided are a method and apparatus for transmitting control information and packet data. The method includes generating control channels which transmit the control information; generating control indication channel which indicates whether the control channels are transmitted or not; generating data channels in order to transmit the packet data based on the control information; multiplexing the control channels, the control indication channels, and the data channels; and transmitting the control channels, the control indication channels, and the data channels. According to the present invention, when control information and packet data are transmitted in downlink, by transmitting additional information indicating whether control channels are transmitted or not, resources not actually allocated to control channels can be allocated to data channel and the mobile station can receive data channel using the control indication information.

The cell search apparatus includes a sync acquirer acquiring synchronization of sync channel symbols using a sync channel of a forward link, and a group detector detecting at least one hopping codeword element belonging to a hopping codeword of a target cell from a forward link signal containing sync channel symbols sequence-hopped using a hopping codeword corresponding to a code group to which a scrambling code of each cell belongs based on the acquired synchronization, and detecting a code group of the target cell based on the detected hopping codeword element, wherein the hopping codewords are orthogonal to a cyclic shift operation. Accordingly, a cell search time and the complexity of the cell search can be reduced.

Provided is a method of efficiently transmitting an acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) bit supporting hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) in a wireless communication system supporting multi-user multi-input and multi-output (MIMO). The method transmits the same downlink code and in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) multiplexed ACK/NACK bit to two mobile stations using the same uplink resource block. Accordingly, the method can efficiently transmit the ACK/NACK bit for multi-user MIMO and efficiently use downlink radio resources.
