Abstract:
It is described a method for determining a received data block by employing a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request procedure. The described method comprises calculating (104) first soft-information values being associated with a first reception of the data block, storing the calculated first soft-information values in a first buffer (121), and calculating (104) second soft-information values being associated with a second reception of the data block, wherein the second reception results from a retransmission of the data block following the first reception. The described method further comprises rate matching (128) a first soft data block comprising the calculated and stored first soft-information values, rate matching (118) a second soft data block comprising the calculated second soft-information values, and decoding (152) a combination of the rate matched first soft data block and the rate matched second soft data block. It is further described a radio receiver arrangement, a computer-readable medium and a program element, which are all adapted for carrying out and/or for controlling the described received data block determination method.
Abstract:
Adaptive reconfiguration of a wireless receiver is enabled based on channel geometry According to an embodiment, the wireless receiver includes a geometry factor processing module and signal processing modules, e.g. such as hut not limited to an SIR estimation module, a power estimation module, a despreading module, a low- pass filter, a combing weight generation module, a coefficient estimation module, a synchronization control channel interference canceller module, etc. The geometry factor processing module determines a geometry factor for the channel over which signals are transmitted to the wireless receiver, the geometry factor being a measure of the ratio of total transmitted power received by the wireless receiver to total interference plus noise power at the wireless receiver. One or more of the receiver signal, processing modules are reconfigurable based on the geometry factor.
Abstract:
A set of channelization codes to be monitored is divided into two groups. The first group includes those codes for which an associated symbol modulation and transmit-diversity scheme is known. In the second group are those codes that are characterized by an unknown symbol modulation or unknown transmit-diversity scheme. The quality of the transmission of each code is then evaluated, using a metric. The metric in turn is used to determine whether the code should be used in estimating the covariance matrix by correlating the RAKE data corresponding to the code (i.e., by computing a correlation matrix for the code) or by first subtracting the channel estimates from the channel samples before correlation (i.e., by computing a covariance matrix for the code). An impairment covariance matrix is computed from the covariance matrices and correlation matrices so computed.
Abstract:
The embodiments herein relate to a method in a base station (101) for transmitting a transport block to a user equipment (105) in a communications network (100). The transport block comprises a plurality of bits. The base station (101) selects (203a, 203b, 401) a transport format. The base station (101) dynamically selects (204a, 203b, 402) a first redundancy version parameter based on a decoding performance for the transport block. The base station (101) transmits (205a, 204b, 404) the transport block comprising the plurality of bits distributed according to the dynamically selected first redundancy version parameter and according to the selected transport format in a first transmission to the user equipment (105).
