Abstract:
A method and apparatus for cooperation in wireless communications. Cooperation is considered among a number of network elements, including at least one wireless transmit-receive unit, at least one relay station, and at least one base station.
Abstract:
A normalized least means square (NLMS) equalizer including two equalizer filters is disclosed. In one embodiment, a single correction term generator is used to generate correction terms for tap coefficient updates of each of the equalizer filters based on a pilot signal. In another embodiment, two different correction term generators are used to generate correction terms for each of the equalizer filters, whereby one of the correction term generators uses data received from a hard decision unit at the output of one of the equalizer filters to generate correction terms for both of the equalizer filters.

Abstract:
A step-size estimator for controlling the step-size of an adaptive equalizer incorporated in a transceiver, (e.g., a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU)). The step-size estimator updates at least one adaptive equalizer tap used by the adaptive equalizer based on an apparent speed of a channel established between the transceiver and another transceiver. The step-size estimator includes a speed estimator, a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) averager and a step-size mapping unit. The speed estimator is used to estimate the apparent speed of the channel, (i.e., the observed and/or measured rate of change of the channel impulse response). The SNR averager generates a common pilot channel (CPICH) SNR estimate. The step-size mapping unit uses the speed estimate and the CPICH SNR estimate to generate a step-size parameter, µ, and a filter taps leakage factor parameter, ±, used by the adaptive equalizer to update the filter tap coefficient.
Abstract:
Un estimador de paso de progresion para controlar el paso de progresion de un ecualizador adaptivo incorporado en un transceptor, (por ejemplo, una unidad de transmision/recepcion inalambrica (WTRU)).El estimador de paso de progresion actualiza al menos una conexion del ecualizador adaptivo utilizada por el ecualizador adaptivo en base a una velocidad aparente de un canal establecido entre el transceptor y otro transceptor. El estimador de paso de progresion incluye un estimador de velocidad, un medidor de proporcion de senal a ruido (SNR) y una unidad de trazo de paso de progresion. El estimador de velocidad de utiliza para estimar la velocidad aparente del canal, (es decir, la velocidad observada y/o medida de cambio de la respuesta de impulso del canal). El medidor SNR genera un estimado SNR de canal piloto comun (CPICH). La unidad de trazo de paso de progresion utiliza el estimado de velocidad y el estimado SNR CPICH para generar un parametro de paso de progresion,??, y un parametro de factor de dispersion de conexiones de filtro,a, utilizado por el ecualizador adaptativo para ecualizar el coeficiente de conexion de filtro.
