Abstract: An interface circuit for converting a digital signal to an analog signal. The interface circuit includes a time response adjustment circuit, a modulator, and a filter. The time response adjustment circuit receives the digital signal and generates an adjusted signal. The modulator couples to the time response adjustment circuit, receives the adjusted signal, and generates a modulator signal. The filter couples to the modulator, receives the modulator signal, and generates the analog signal. The analog signal has a time response that is modified by the time response adjustment circuit. In an embodiment, the time response adjustment circuit includes a gain element, a delay element, and a summer. The gain element receives and scales the digital signal by a scaling factor. The delay element receives and delays the digital signal by a time delay. The summer couples to the gain element and the delay element, sums the scaled signal from the gain element and the delayed signal from the delay element to generate the adjusted signal.

Abstract: Transmitter architectures for a communications system having improved performance over conventional transmitter architectures. The improvements include a combination of the following: faster response time for the control signals, improved linearity, reduced interference, reduced power consumption, lower circuit complexity, and lower costs. For a cellular application, these improvements can lead to increased system capacity, smaller telephone size, increased talk and standby times, and greater acceptance of the product. Circuitry is provided to speed up the response time of a control signal. The control loop for various elements in the transmit signal path are integrated. A gain control mechanism allows for accurate adjustment of the output transmit power level. Control mechanisms are provided to power down the power amplifier, or th e entire transmit signal path, when not needed. The gains of the various elements in the transmit signal path are controlled to reduce transients in the output transmit power, and to also ensure that transients are downward.

Abstract: A forward link repeater frequency watermarking (FLRFWM) system and method that enable accurate position location of mobile stations in areas where repeaters are present by watermarking repeated signals with repeater information. A repeater watermarks a forward link signal with a (unique or non-unique) fast frequency modulation waveform watermark every time a signal passes through the repeater. A mobile station detects and/or identifies the fast frequency watermark on the forward link signal to determine repeater information that aids the network position determination entity or mobile station position location system in determining position location using AFLT and/or AGPS systems. A forward link fast frequency watermarking system described herein achieves minimal impact on FL, AFLT, and GPS performance, good detection, identification and false alarm probabilities, short time-to-detect/identify, and good detection/identification sensitivity.

Abstract: Position determination accuracy of a wireless communication device may be negatively affected by a large unaccounted GPS doppler bias, which in turn may affect GPS doppler estimations and GPS doppler measurements conducted by the wireless communication device. The quality of GPS doppler measurements is very important for position location, because poor quality GPS doppler measurements may prevent the wireless communication device from acquiring satellites in the most sensitive modes with narrow frequency ranges, which results in reduced GPS pseudorange measurement yield. Large unaccounted GPS doppler bias also adversely affects position accuracy because of the adverse effect on the GPS code phase measurements time propagation to common time prior to their use in position location calculation. The same is true in the case of unaccounted CDMA code doppler, through the adverse effect on the AFLT code phase measurements time propagation to common time prior to their use in a position location engine. This effect is the biggest concern in the case of large search windows. Therefore, the present disclosure provides a method of optimizing GPS based position location in the presence of time-varying frequency error, including the steps of continuously measuring and/or calculating resulting GPS doppler bias and CDMA code doppler bias and then minimizing their adverse effects with regard to position location determination by re-centering GPS doppler search windows based on the GPS doppler bias value, as well as using GPS doppler bias and CDMA code doppler bias value to properly propagate GPS pseudorange and AFLT pilot phase measurements, respectively, to common time prior to their use in a position location engine.
