Abstract: An apparatus that automatically adjusts the adaptation block size for a least-mean square (LMS) adaptive filter depending on the input signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is disclosed. The apparatus monitors the instantaneous SNR and continually adjusts the block size to provide high noise immunity, thereby increasing the convergence speed of the filter and decreasing the asymptotic mean-square error. An exemplary embodiment of the present invention is presented in the context of acoustic echo cancellation, though it is noted that the adaptive filter of the present invention is useful in any environment in which the noise characteristics are subject to change.

Abstract: An echo canceller and method for cancelling in a return channel signal an echoed receive channel signal where the echoed receive channel signal is combined by an echo channel with an input return channel signal. The echo canceller has a first filter which generates first filter coefficients, generates a first echo estimate signal with the first filter coefficients, and updates the first filter coefficients in response to a first filter control signal. A first summer subtracts the first echo estimate signal from a combined return channel and echo receive channel signal to generate a first echo residual signal. A second filter generates second filter coefficients, generates a second echo estimate signal with the second filter coefficients, and updates the second filter coefficients in response to a second filter control signal. A second summer subtracts the second echo estimate signal from the combined signal to generate a second echo residual signal, and provides upon the return channel the second echo residual signal. A control unit determines from the receive channel signal, the combined signal, and the first and second echo residual signals, one of a plurality of control states wherein a first control state is indicative of a receive channel signal above a first predetermined energy level, wherein when the control unit is in the first control state it generates the first control signal and generates the second control signal when at least one of a first energy ratio of the first echo residual signal and the combined signal and a second energy ratio of the second echo residual signal and the combined signal exceed a predetermined level.

Abstract: A mobile device (10) comprises a receiver and a coherent integrator (104), wherein the receiver is configured to receive a first signal from a satellite, the first signal including a navigation message. The coherent integrator is configured to coherently integrate first signal samples for a particular coherent integration interval. When the coherent integration interval straddles a data boundary of the navigation message, the coherent integration is divided into a section before the data boundary of the navigation message and a section after the data boundary of the navigation message

Abstract: A novel and improved method for performing paging is described. In one embodiment of the invention a searcher (206) is used to detect spread spectrum signals. Samples received RF signals are stored in a sample buffer. During standby mode, the samples are gathered during paging slots assigned to the mobile. A set of searches are performed on the samples, and if pilot signals are detected additional demodulation is performed to detect paging messages. The resulting set of demodulation data may be combined to increase detection. After a page message has been detected, additional demodulation resources may be activated to process more complete page messages, or other information channels. In one embodiment of the invention, the searcher (206) includes a demodulator to perform quick page detection without the use of finger elements to reduce idle mode power consumption.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for canceling both earseal and hybrid echo in a Wireless Local Loop telephone system is disclosed. The present invention operates within a subscriber station having a plurality of telephone inputs, one of which is a dedicated handset and at least one other input being a standard analog telephone. During a conference call between a far end speaker and two near end speakers, the far end speaker may hear an echo of his own voice due to an earseal echo generated by the dedicated handset and a hybrid echo generated by a 4-to-2 wire hybrid interface within the subscriber station. In accordance with the present invention, two distinct echo cancellers are used in the subscriber station to reduce the two types of echo. A first echo canceller is optimized to remove the earseal echo generated at the dedicated handset while a second echo canceller is optimized to remove the hybrid echo generated at the 4-to-2 wire hybrid. The two echo cancellers operate independently such that neither echo canceller need adapt its filter coefficients when a change in the echo channel characteristics occur, such as when a speaker hangs up or another speaker joins the conversation.

Abstract: A novel and improved method and apparatus for searching is described. This searcher combines the ability to search multiple offsets of single pilots, such as those found in the IS-95 system, with the ability to search multiple pilots, such as those found in a GPS location determination system. Both types of searching can be done in a single architecture combining the parallel computation features of a matched filter with the flexibility of allowing a variable number of coherent accumulations and a variable number of non-coherent accumulations to be performed at high speed for a wide range of search hypotheses in a resource efficient manner. This invention allows for parallel use of the matched filter structure in a time-sliced manner to search multiple windows. In addition, the searcher allows for optional independent Walsh decovering for each search window. The time-sharing approach allows for optional frequency searching of any offset.
