Abstract:
In a method for improved turbo decoding in a wireless communication system, jointly allocating (S10) a predetermined maximum number of decoding iterations to a batch of received decoding jobs; and consecutively performing decoding iterations (S20) adaptively for each job in the batch until a convergence criteria is reached for each job in the batch, or until the predetermined maximum number of iterations for the batch is reached.
Abstract:
In a wireless communication system, the uplink transmission of measurement reports may be scheduled based on an estimated time of when a measurement report will be ready for transmission. The estimated time may be calculated at a base station or user equipment.
Abstract:
There is provided a method of operating a communication system, the communication system comprising a user equipment and a receiver, the method in the system comprising generating a random access transmission in a user equipment and transmitting the random access transmission to the receiver in the communication system, the random access transmission including a preamble; receiving the random access transmission from the user equipment at the receiver; processing the random access transmission in the frequency domain to detect the preamble. In preferred embodiments of the invention, the preamble has a cyclic prefix, or is preceded by a plurality of zero-valued symbols.
Abstract:
The signal impairment correlations for multiple signals in a received multipath are constructed by fitting parametric models associated with each high-data-rate signal in the multipath against measured impairment correlations. The estimated models fitting parameters are applied to form impairment correlation estimates for all signals. The models comprises a separate impairment covariance matrix scaled by a model fitting parameter for each high-data-rate signal and a noise covariance matrix scaled by a noise element model fitting parameter. The model fitting parameters may be estimated by a least-squares formulation and applied to form impairment correlation estimates for all signals of interest. The resulting impairment correlation estimates may be provided to G-RAKE receivers or joint scaling demodulators to demodulate the signals while suppressing interference from the high-data-rate signals.
