Abstract: A method and apparatus for time division duplex (TDD) repeating a spread spectrum signal, where spread spectrum signal is comprised of a series of code symbol modulated with a pseudonoise (PN) sequence. The TDD repeater receives intermittently the spread spectrum signal at a location remote from a source supplying the spread spectrum signal. The TDD repeater amplifies and delays the received spread spectrum signal by a predetermined amount. The TDD repeater transmits intermittently the delayed amplified received spread spectrum signal such that the TDD is not receiving the spread spectrum signal when it is transmitting the signal energy.

Abstract: An method and apparatus for computing a scalar projection of a vector onto another vector. The apparatus comprises a multiplying circuit and a summing circuit. The multiplying circuit is for multiplying a value representative of a first component of a first vector with a value representative of a first component of a second vector to provide a first intermediate value, and for multiplying a value representative of a second component of a first vector with a value representative of a second component of a second vector to provide a second intermediate value. The summing circuit sums the first and second intermediate values to provide a resultant value representative of the scalar projection of the first vector onto the second vector. The apparatus may further comprise a storing circuit and a selection circuit. The storing circuit is for storing the values representative of the first and second components of the first vector, and the values representative of the first and second components of the second vector. The selection circuit provides an ordered supply of these values to the multiplying circuit.

Abstract: In a receiver having a plurality of demodulation elements, a method of assigning the plurality of demodulation element so a set of available signals. A first method emphasizes diversity of transmitting devices so that power control is optimal. A second method emphasizes the maximum signal strength available to produce aggregate maximum signal strength. Both methods control the number of reassignments so that excessive data is not lost during the reassignment process. The apparatus comprises the plurality of demodulation elements, at least one searcher element, and a controller.

Abstract: A method and system for determining the position of an object using a fixed station and a plurality of earth orbit satellites whose positions are known. Separate periodic signals are transmitted from the fixed station via first and second satellites to the object whose postion is to be determined. The phase offset in periodic characteristics of the periodic signals as received from the first and second satellites is measured at the object. The phase offset corresponds to a relative time difference in propagation of the signals traveling two different paths to the object. The object transmits via the first satellite a return signal indicative of the measured relative time difference. This return signal is activated some time in the future according to the object local time, which is slaved to receipt of the periodic signal sent through the first satellite. This future time is the start of the particular time period as decided by the fixed station's schedule. At the fixed station, an instantaneous round trip delay, determined by the time offset of the current transmission clock time relative to the receive clock time of reception of the return signal, along with the measured relative time difference sent back on the return signal, is used to calculate the distances between the first and second satellites to the object. From these distances the position of the object is calculated.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus for integrating a personal communication system with a cable television plant. A set of radio antenna devices (RAD) are connected to the cable plant. The RADs provide frequency conversion and power control of signal received from the cable plant for wireless transmission to the remote units. The RADs also provide power control and frequency conversion of wireless signals received from the remote units for transmission by the RADs onto the cable plant. In addition to the functions of standard base stations and centralized controller, the CATV base station must also compensate for gain variations in the cable plant. The downstream power control is regulated by a RAD reference signal which can be hidden within the CDMA signal for maximum efficiency. The upstream power control is regulated by an upstream gain reference signal which is individually transmitted by each RAD on the upstream link. The architecture of the present invention lends itself to a great deal of flexibility. Each RAD can operate as either an element of a distributed antenna or a base station sector unto itself. The function of each RAD as distributed antenna or as sector can be remotely programmed from the headend processor. Thus the capacity density of the system can be changed to accommodate the changing traffic density. The flexibility also is important at system deployment. When the system is deploy, the entire system may feed only one sector at the base station thus reducing the start-up cost of implementing a system. As system traffic increases, more resources can simply be added at the headend to provide more capacity.

Abstract: A novel and improved method and apparatus for generating a reduced peak amplitude high data rate channel comprised of a set of lower rate channels is described. The set of lower rate channels are phase rotated before being summed and transmitted. The amount of phase rotation is dependent on the number of channels used to form the higher rate channel. In an embodiment where two lower rate channels are used, the in-phase and quadrature-phase components of the two channels are complex multiplied before upconversion with an in-phase and quadrature-phase sinusoids. For a high rate channel comprised of more than two lower rate channels, the in-phase and quadrature-phase component of each channel is upconverted with a set of sinusoids that are phase offset from one another.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for adding and removing a target base station from a network of base stations, which includes base stations adjacent the target base station. The apparatus is comprised of two attenuators; a first (210) for setting an artificial receive noise power level and a second (218) for setting a transmit level. The transmit level determines the forward link coverage area of the base station. The artificial noise level sets the reverse link coverage area of the base station. When a base station is added, initially the transmit power is low and the artificial receive noise power is high such that the forward and reverse link coverage areas are collocated in close proximity to the base station. As the base station blossoms into full operation, the artificial receive noise power is decreased and the transmit level is increased such that the two coverage areas of the base station remain balanced as the coverage areas expand. When a base station is to be removed from a system, the same attenuators are used to wilt the two coverage areas in unison as the power level transmitted from the base station decreases.
