    Abstract: A radio telecommunications system is provided operative to communicate digital data symbols with multilevel-coded modulation using higher than quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmit environment. The system comprises a transmitter (1) and a receiver (2). The transmitter (1) contains a means to split the data into a first block of more significant bits of symbols and a second block of less significant bits of symbols which are then separately encoded (a,b) and interleaved (c,c') for modulation by a modulator (d). This transmitter performs multilevel-coded modulation to provide a layered encoding scheme that enables unequal error protection for the transmitted bits. The receiver (2) is operative to receive the multilevel-coded modulated signal via multiple-transmit antennas by iterative determination of soft estimates of bits followed by a hard decision as to what bit was intended. The receiver (2) comprises a first processor (3) operative to provide first soft estimates of bits of the received signal, and a second processor (13) operative to decode the first soft estimates and to provide second soft estimates of the bits. The receiver (2) also comprises a first combiner (11') operative to provide adapted first soft estimates to the second processor (13), the adapted first soft estimates of each bit being dependent upon the respective first soft estimate and a respective previous first soft estimate. The receiver (2) also comprises a second combiner (17) operative to provide third soft estimates back to the first processor for subsequent further decoding, the third soft estimates of each bit being dependent upon the respective second soft estimate and a respective previous second soft estimate.

    Abstract: A communications system (1) includes an underlay network (2), which a cellular communications network implemented using UMTS technology, and an overlay home cell (8) set up by a user using a base station router (7), or other similar access device. A call may be transferred from the home cell (8) to a cell of the underlay network (2) and vice versa. If these operate at different tariffs, the user may find that handover between them results in extra charges for an on-going call. The user terminal (10) is enabled so as to allow the user to determine if handover should be performed, and thus retain control of costs incurred in making a call. The user terminal (10) may give an alert if there is a risk of imminent handover, allowing the user to take avoiding action if desired, or the user may configure preferences to control under what conditions handover may be performed.

    Abstract: A transmit power control technique within a wireless communication system includes adjusting a transmit power used by a picocell base station unit based upon a position of the picocell within a macrocell. When a picocell base station unit is located relatively close to a macrocell base station or center of the macrocell, the transmit power of the picocell base station unit is increased to avoid downlink interference from the macrocell base station for mobile stations communicating within the picocell. When a picocell base station unit is located relatively close to an edge of a macrocell, the transmit power of the picocell base station is decreased to avoid interference caused by the picocell base station unit for mobile stations communicating within the macrocell in the vicinity of the picocell. In a disclosed example determined downlink interference levels provide an indication of the position of the picocell within the macrocell and provide an indication of how to automatically adjust the transmit power of the picocell base station unit.

    Abstract: A method of communicating in a picocell within a macrocell includes automatically setting an uplink transmit power of a mobile station to avoid uplink interference between the picocell and the macrocell. A disclosed example includes determining an allowable interference from the picocell to the macrocell. A path-loss between a mobile station and a macrocell is determined. An uplink transmit power of the mobile station for communicating in the picocell is determined based upon the determined allowable interference and the determined path-loss.

    Abstract: A wireless communication technique provides mobility for a mobile station (52) to communicate with an overlay network device (40), which is within a coverage area (34) of an underlay network device (24), when the mobile station (52) is within a coverage area (42) of both devices. The overlay network device (40) broadcasts at least two downlink channels. A cell code (e.g., a scrambling code or pseudo noise offset) of a first one of the downlink channels identifies an overlay network device (40) exclusively. The mobile station (52) can detect the first downlink channel responsive to an indication of the exclusive cell code from the underlay network device. A second one of the downlink channels allows for subsequent, ongoing communications between the mobile station and the overlay network device.
