Abstract:
A method for multiplexing a control information stream, and a data information stream comprised of systematic symbols and non-systematic symbols in a wireless mobile communication system is described. The multiplexing method includes mapping the data information stream to a resource area, so that the systematic bit symbols are not mapped to a specific resource area where the control information stream is to be mapped, and mapping the control information stream to the specific resource area.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a signal processing in applying HARQ to an MIMO system, by which error-detecting information enabling to decide whether a received signal is erroneous is appended for transmission. The present invention appends CRC to the data block transported from a higher layer so that HARQ can be efficiently applied to the MIMO system. The present invention segments the CRC-appended data block and then transmits the segmented data blocks via a plurality of antennas. Data streams generated from the segmented data blocks are independent from each other in coding scheme and modulation.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a digital broadcasting transmission/reception system having an improved reception performance and in a signal-processing method thereof. A digital broadcasting transmitter comprises a TS stream generator for inputting robust and normal packets having stuff bytes in predetermined positions and generating dual TS stream by inserting the robust packets between the normal packets; a randomizer for randomizing the dual TS stream; a stuff byte exchanger for replacing the stuff bytes of a randomized data streams from the randomizer to a predetermined known data; and an encoder for encoding a data streams to which the known data is inserted. Accordingly, the present invention detects the known data from a signal received from a reception side and uses the detected known data for synchronization and equalization, so that the digital broadcasting reception performance can be improved at poor multipath channels.

The present invention relates to a base station arrangement (20) in a communications system supporting high speed packet data communication, comprising a base station protocol entity for a protocol handling high speed control signalling and physical resource allocation for high speed data communication, quality handling means (27) adapted to receive and handle channel condition related information from mobile user stations, encoding means for encoding data packets to be transmitted to mobile user station, and transmission control means comprising a scheduling means (28) communicating with a hybrid automatic retransmission system (HARQ) (221, . . . , 22n) and being adapted to control transmission of data packets using said channel condition related information and data packet buffering means (231, . . . , 23n). The base station protocol entity further comprises a control plane entity supporting an extended control plane for control plane signalling messages comprising specific control messages handling means (26), adapted to provide a specific probing or information control message and to send said message to a mobile user station.
Abstract:
There have been proposals to extend the MPE protocol to support different FEC schemes on the MPE layer. Examples of these proposals include: TM-SSP0178 describing a multiburst sliding encoding scheme based on Reed-Solomon (RS) codes, TM-SSP0199r1 describing a block-based encoding scheme based on multi-stage chain reaction (MSCR) codes, and TM-SSP0222 describing a multiburst sliding encoding scheme based on MSCR codes. A framework for harmonizing and integrating those techniques is described herein.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting data by at least one access terminal (AT) in a wireless communication system is disclosed. More specifically, the method includes ceasing all transmissions by the at least one AT during a duration corresponding to a duration used by an access node (AN) to transmit a superframe preamble, wherein the superframe comprises a plurality of physical frames.
Abstract:
A hybrid ARQ method for packet data transmission in a mobile communication system wherein previously transmitted packets are combined with retransmitted packets. The packets are segmented into a plurality of protocol data units (PDUs), and each PDU is assigned a sequence number for identification purposes. The sequence number is transmitted on a control channel which is separate from the data channel for transmitting the PDUs.
Abstract:
Method, apparatus, and system for synchronization in radio communication systems are presented. The method includes the steps of encapsulating symbols in an information stream then modulating the stream. The modulated information stream is then sent over a communication channel at a first robustness level, and the level of robustness of the information stream is then reduced to a second robustness level according to a predetermined function. The modulated information stream is received from the communication channel. The information stream is then demodulated after a first number of symbols have been received, wherein the first number of symbols is less than a second number of symbols that would have to be received to demodulate a corresponding information stream sent over the communication channel only at the second robustness level.
Abstract:
There is provided a method of diversity error control coding for a system having variable-length packets that carry prioritized data. High priority packets in a data sequence are replicated to form virtual replications. Parity symbols are generated from the data sequence and from the virtual replications, and tag information is generated that indicates a number of the virtual replications used to generate the parity symbols, for subsequent transmission of only the data sequence, the parity symbols, and the tag information to reconstruct the data sequence.
