    Abstract: An improved system and method for estimating one or more parameters, such as amplitude and signal-to-noise ratio, of a received signal, such as an M-QAM or q-ASK signal, is set forth herein. A first embodiment of the invention estimates the amplitude of an M-QAM signal based upon known or ascertainable phase information regarding a plurality of transmitted symbols. A respective set of received symbols corresponding to the plurality of transmitted symbols is recovered. Each of the plurality of received symbols is multiplied by a complex unit vector with a phase that is opposite in sign to the complex transmitted data symbol to generate a set of products. The set of products is summed, and the real part of the sum of products is then determined. The absolute values of the known transmitted symbols are summed to generate a total magnitude value. The real part of the sum of products is divided by the sum of transmitted magnitude values to generate an estimate of the amplitude of the M-QAM signal. Other embodiments of the present invention utilize second-order and fourth-order moments of received samples, a maximum likelihood searching process, or a Kurtosis estimation process to estimate amplitude, noise power, and signal-to-noise ratio of a received signal.

    Abstract: The invention provides embodiments to facilitate cell search. In one embodiment, received samples are split into a plurality of sample sets for processing. Each of the sets is processed and an accumulated result is divided by an estimated noise value. In another embodiment, a code correlator correlates the received signal with a primary synchronization code and an auxiliary code correlator having a same length as the code correlator correlates the received signal with a code having a low cross correlation with the primary synchronization code. In another embodiment, a division of an accumulated result with a noise estimate is performed using indexes of the most significant bits.

    Abstract: Detecting, avoiding and/or correcting problematic puncturing patterns in parity bit streams used when implementing punctured Turbo codes is achieved without having to avoid desirable code rates. This enables identification/avoidance of regions of relatively poor Turbo code performance. Forward error correction comprising Turbo coding and puncturing achieves a smooth functional relationship between any measure of performance and the effective coding rate resulting from combining the lower rate code generated by the Turbo encoder (600) with puncturing of the parity bits. In one embodiment, methods to correct/avoid degradations due to Turbo coding are implemented by puncturing interactions when two or more stages of rate matching (610, 620) are employed.

    Abstract: A channel estimation apparatus and method is provided for a wireless communication signal received from at least one relatively mobile wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). Predetermined filter coefficients having unique index values are stored in a memory device. An index generator matches estimation values of the mobile unit speed and SNR to a particular filter coefficient, and selects a corresponding index value, whereby the memory performs a look up function according to the index value and outputs a filter coefficient vector. The channel estimation of the wireless communication signal is taken from the output of the filter. Alternatively, a set of parallel filters which run continuously are used to produce several channel estimates, from which the final estimate is selected based on the associated lowest mean square error or highest SNR.
