  • Publication number: 20070121706
    Abstract: A spreading and/or despreading mechanism in which the inphase component and a quadrature component of a signal are to be transmitted by using a short code and a long code. The long code has an inphase component and a quadrature component that are different from each other. The spreading and despreading operations carry out a complex-to-complex operation between a combination of the inphase component and the quadrature component of the signal and a combination of the inphase component and the quadrature component of the long code.

  • Patent number: 6741837
    Abstract: A base station 422 of a second system performs communication using a frequency adjacent to a frequency employed by communication between a base station 412 and a mobile station 414 of a first system. When the mobile station 414 is close to the base station 422, the communication of the base station 422 undergoes interference by the leakage power of the mobile station 414. To avoid the interference, the transmission is halted of the mobile station 414 of the first system, which provides the interference by the leakage power.

  • Patent number: 6453166
    Abstract: A decision is made as to whether a radio base station acting as an interference source is present in a macrocell or microcell, so that the interference from a mobile station transmitting high power can be presented in advance. The base station inserts its transmission power value of a forward broadcast channel into broadcast information. A newly installed base station C, receiving a forward frequency band, measures the received level of the broadcast channel, and captures the transmission power value. When the transmission power value is large, the threshold value is reduced (THRb), and when the transmission power value is small, the threshold value is increased (THRa). If the received level L is less than the threshold value, a decision is made that the channel is available.

  • Patent number: 6157626
    Abstract: A cell selection scheme for a CDMA mobile communication system which is capable of reducing an amount of interference power and thereby preventing the degradation of the system capacity. In this scheme, each base station transmits a perch channel which is spread by using a spread code assigned to each base station. Then, a mobile station receives more than one perch channels transmitted from more than one base stations, calculates a transmission attenuation value of each received perch channel, and judges a located cell according to calculated transmission attenuation values of these more than one perch channels.
