Patent number: 11038719Abstract: Channel estimation performance depends on the amount of averaging performed by a channel impulse response coherent filter. For half-duplex UEs, which use a single phase locked loop (PLL) for both downlink transmissions and uplink transmissions, averaging may not be performed across downlink subframes before and after uplink subframes if the PLL's phase changes and locks to a random initial value when switching transmission directions. Techniques disclosed herein facilitate estimating the PLL's random initial phase and enable correcting the phase of symbols accordingly. By correcting the phase of the symbols, it is possible to average across symbols before and after a frequency re-tune and/or a transmission direction switch based on the phase correction. This may serve to improve the accuracy of channel estimation.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2019Date of Patent: June 15, 2021Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Parisa Babaheidarian, Vijayvaradharaj Tirucherai Muralidharan, Murali Menon

A codeword can span over multiple blocks. The receiver receives a first codeword stream from a first sender, receives a second codeword stream from a second sender, the two codeword streams may be received at the same time as one signal, and decodes the first codeword stream and second codeword stream over a sliding window of multiple blocks.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2015Date of Patent: May 25, 2021Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Young-Han Kim, Lele Wang, Hosung Park, Eren Sasoglu
