    Abstract: A spread-spectrum communication system provides an effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of received orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) slots in the presence of timing errors. Effective SNR can serve as a diagnostic tool for determining whether there was a timing error when a measured packet error rate (PER) remains high, and a predicted PER from the effective SNR remains low. A loop can use the effective SNR to control a time reference used by an OFDM decoder.

    Abstract: Noise variance estimation in wireless communications. Noise variance estimation includes receiving a signal 402 including an OFDM symbol having, in-band tones including in-band pilot tones, and band-edge tones including band-edge pilot tones and guard tones, estimating an effective noise variance for the in-band tones 702 using the in-band pilot tones and channel estimates for the in-band pilot tones, and estimating an effective noise variance for the band-edge tones 704 using the band-edge pilot tones, channel estimates for the band-edge pilot tones, and the guard tones.

    Abstract: A pilot assisted channel estimation process. A receiver may be configured to estimate the impulse response of a channel from a signal having pilot tones and spread-spectrum pilot signals. The receiver estimates the response of the channel from the pilot tones, and adapts the length of delay the channel response is estimated based on the spread-spectrum pilot signals.

    Abstract: A power efficient technique is used to demodulate the coded overhead channels of a GEO satellite uplink. A coherent receiver used in a wireless communication system is able to determine the information conveyed in the overhead channel, by effecting channel estimates from codewords extracted from a pilot signal. A valid set of codewords is established (111). Pilot symbols are extracted from a pilot signal (114) and a channel estimate is made from the pilot signal (115). Codewords in the set of valid codewords are correlated (112) and the channel estimate is used to form a set of metries (123) and the codeword corresponding to the maximum metric is selected (135).

    Abstract: Methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses are described for location tracking in which each tag used to track an asset or person in an indoor environment transmits ranging waveforms used to estimate a location of the tag. Multiple tags may concurrently transmit without interfering with each other by having each tag use a distinct frequency shift for the ranging waveforms. Access points may be deployed throughout the indoor environment as part of a wireless network (e.g., ultra-wideband or UWB network) that tracks the assets. The access points may receive the ranging waveforms transmitted by the tags and may perform measurements based on the ranging waveforms. The measurements may be sent to a tracking management server to estimate the location of the tags. The server may also determine and assign the distinct frequency shifts used by the tags and may modify the assignment when the number of tags being tracked changes.

    Abstract: A communication system is provided that allows a mobile terminal with an EVDO interface to perform VoIP communications via a satellite. The 1xEVDO physical layer frames and vocoder frames are synchronized and aligned to a known periodic time boundary for efficient transmission. A reverse link transmission rate is adjusted to match a VoIP packet source rate and operate the reverse link transmission channel to a satellite continuously. The reverse link transmission channel from a mobile terminal to a satellite may operate continuously and at a lower channel transmission rate to reduce the peak power amplifier power requirement. The higher layer time-out periods are increased to account for propagation delay to/from a satellite relay. A physical layer retransmit mechanism is disabled to ignore ACKs/ NACKs when sending VoIP packets via a satellite relay. A different channel code may be selective applied depending on the size/type of packets being transmitted.
