    Abstract: A method for a base station is disclosed for controlling the transmission energy of forward link signals comprising the steps of receiving a potentially gated reverse link signal including forward link power control bits, determining whether said power control bits have been gated out, and adjusting forward link transmission energy in accordance with said forward link power control bits only when said determination as to whether said forward link power control bits have been gated out indicates that said power control bits have not been gated out.

    Abstract: A method for reducing call dropping rates in a multi-beam communication system. The multi-beam communication system includes a user terminal, a gateway, and a plurality of beam sources, where each beam source projects a plurality of beams, and where a communication link between the user terminal and the gateway is established on one or more beams. The method according to the present invention relies on a messaging protocol between the gateway and the user terminal. Based on messages sent from the user terminal to the gateway, preferably on a preselected periodic basis, the gateway can determine the more desirable beam(s) for transmitting data or information to the user terminal. The messages sent from the user terminal to the gateway contain values representing beam strengths as measured at the user terminal. The gateway uses the user terminal measured beam strengths to select the beams that should be used for transmitting data or information to the user terminal. The beams that should be used are the beams that if used will decrease the call dropping rates and provide a desired level of beam source diversity.

    Abstract: A system for digital filtering includes a set of logic gates, a state storage, and a multiplexer. The state storage includes two or more storage banks and may also include combinatorial logic and/or at least one lookup table. In one application, a filtering operation according to a finite-impulse-response filter coefficient vector is performed without runtime multiplications. Applications to symmetric and antisymmetric filter coefficient vectors are described, as well as applications to filter coefficient vectors of arbitrary odd or even length.

    Abstract: The method pages (fig 2) a wireless terminal in a wireless telecommunications system and transmits a quick page message via a less encoded channel and generates a full page message via a more encoded channel. The quick page massege contains less information than the full page message. The quick page message is for notifying the wireless terminal to begin processing for the full page message, and comprises a single bit of data. The full page message is transmitted during a second time slot assigned to the wireless terminal that occurs after the first time slot.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for accurately determining the operating characteristics or impact of nonlinear effects on devices or communication systems transferring orthogonally coded spread-spectrum communication signals. A Walsh Power Ratio, is used to more accurately determine system response. This information can be used by power control loops in controlling or adjusting the operation of nonlinear elements or stages such as high power amplifiers in orthogonal CDMA communication systems to provide improved system response. The information can also be employed in assigning channels to systems users, and to proceed with physical changes to system hardware. The measurements used to formulate the WPR can be made to individual components or to entire systems by injecting communication signals in multiple channels containing data, and leaving at least one empty channel. The received power per channel on the output side of the system or device is then measured. A ratio of power density for the empty to the active channels is then formed. The determination of WPR for a system or components can be realized during periods of operation through periodic transfer of test signals either at allocated times or by interleaving among existing traffic signals in the system.
