    Abstract: A method for limiting peak transmit power in a CDMA communication system by transmitting a first communication signal having a first high transmit power region, and transmitting a second communication signal having a second high transmit power region. A first and a second communication signal are time offset to prevent the first and second high transmit power regions from occurring simultaneously. Time shifting only a portion of the first and second communication signals is also taught. The first and second communication signals can also include respective first and second low transmit power regions. The time offset can be selected to align one of the first and second high transmit power regions with one of the first and second low transmit power regions. The total transmit power signal can be determined and the time offset can be selected to minimize a peak level of the total transmit power signal. The communication signals are separated into a plurality of portions and portions of the first and second communication signals are time offset to re-order the sequence of transmission of the plurality of portions.

    Abstract: Techniques for recovering data transmitted on a physical channel in which channelization code is not known at the time of the data recovery. A modulated signal is received and processed to provide received samples (612). A hypothesized channelization code (e.g., an OVSF code in the W-CDMA system) is selected (616) and used to process the received samples to generate partially processed symbols (618). The hypothesized channelization code is a "base" code that can be used to generate all possible channelization codes that may have been used for the physical channel. Intermediate results representative of the partially processed symbols are stored (622) and, upon determination of the actual channelization code (624), further processed (626) in accordance with the actual and hypothesized channelization codes to provide the final results. The additional processing includes partitioning the intermediate results into sets, scaling each intermediate result in a particular set with a scaling factor (+1 or 1) determined by the actual and hypothesized channelization codes, and combining the scaled results in each set to obtain a final result. In the STTD mode in the W-CDMA system, the final results from multiple actual OVSF code intervals can be selectively combine to obtain a recovered symbol (628).

    Abstract: A receiver unit (136) for use in a CDMA system and including a channel processor (810), a buffer (512), and a data processor (516). The channel processor (510) processes samples for one or more physical channels for each time interval to provide symbols (612). The buffer is operated as a number of memory banks (FIG. 3). Each memory bank is associated with a respective time interval and stores symbols associated with that time interval, The data processor (516) retrieves symbols for a particular "traffic" from one or more memory banks and processes the retrieved symbols (622, 624). For the W-CDMA system, each traffic includes one or more radio frames for a particular transmission time interval. The receiver unit (136) typically further includes a controller (520) that directs the storage and retrieval of symbols (614) to and from the memory banks and a decoder (518) that decodes (624) symbols processed by the data processor. For each time interval, radio frames for physical channels received starting within that time interval can be stored (614) to permutated locations of designated sections of the memory bank (FIG. 7). Radio frames associated with a particular CCTrCH can be stored to contiguous sections of the memory bank. Symbols for a particular traffic can be retrieved from one or more memory banks in permutated order.

    Abstract: Techniques for searching in asynchronous systems are disclosed. In one aspect, a plurality of codes, such as SSCs, are correlated with a received signal at a plurality of offsets to produce a code/slot energy corresponding to each code/slot boundary pair. Unique subsets of the code/slot energies are summed to produce code sequence energies, the maximum of which indicates a located code sequence and slot boundary. In another aspect, the correlation is performed by sub-correlating the received signal with a common sequence, and performing a Fast Hadamard Transform FHT on the results. In yet another aspect, one sub-correlator can be used to search a plurality of peaks simultaneously. Various other aspects of the invention are also presented. These aspects collectively have the benefit of circuit area and search-time efficiency which translate into reduced costs, increased standby time, increased acquisition speed, higher quality signal transmission, increased data throughput, decreased power, and improved overall system capacity.

    Abstract: Several methods and corresponding apparatus reduce peak to average power in signals transmitted in a wireless communications system, particularly with respect to pilot symbols transmitted from a base station to several user stations. A large peak to average amplitude of inserted pilot symbols has been found to result from a common sign chip position that exists in orthogonal codes, such as Walsh codes. In a first embodiment, the Walsh codes are multiplied by a random value of +/- 1. Under a second embodiment, the common sign chip position is eliminated in each Walsh code. The user station then inserts the missing chip position to regain orthogonality. In a third embodiment, the base station transmits pilot symbols, on a separate pilot channel, in only symbol positions that user stations expect to find pilot symbols. Under a fourth embodiment, each Walsh code is randomly shifted.
