Abstract:
A system and method of controlling transmission power during the establishment of a channel in a CDMA communication system utilize the transmission of a short code from a subscriber unit to a base station during initial power ramp-up. The short code is a sequence for detection by the base station which has a much shorter period than a conventional spreading code. The ramp-up starts from a power level that is guaranteed to be lower than the required power level for detection by the base station. The subscriber unit quickly increases transmission power while repeatedly transmitting the short code until the signal is detected by the base station. Once the base station detects the short code, it sends an indication to the subscriber unit to cease increasing transmission power. The use of short codes limits power overshoot and interference to other subscriber stations and permits the base station to quickly synchronize to the spreading code used by the subscriber unit.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable large capacity communications by lowering multipath fading. SOLUTION: The multipath processor is provided with a plurality of first correlators, a plurality of second correlators, a first adder, a second adder and a selector or a synthesizer. The first adder is located between a plurality of first correlators and the selector or synthesizer and the second adder is located between a plurality of second correlators and the selector or synthesizer. A plurality of first correlators despread a plurality of spread signals in a first group and generate a plurality of first despread signals, the first adder adds or synthesizes a plurality of first despread signals and generates a first synthetic despread signal, a plurality of second correlators despread a plurality of spread signals in a second group and generate a plurality of secon despread signals, and the second adder generates a second synthetic despread signal by adding or synthesizing a plurality of second despread signals. The selector selects any one of the first and second synthetic despread signals and the selected synthetic despread signal is outputted from a decision device as an output despread signal.
