Abstract: A receiver is capable of demodulating both high data rate and low data rate transmissions. An antenna receives the high and low data rate transmissions, as a received signal. An interference canceling device cancels a contribution of at least one shared/common channel from the received signal, producing a first interference canceled signal. A first data detector for detecting data of one of the high or low data rate transmissions by processing the first interference canceled signal. An interference canceling device for canceling the detected data of the one transmissions from the first interference canceled signal, producing a second interference canceled signal. A second data detector for detecting data of an other of the high or low data rate transmissions from the second interference canceled signal.

Abstract: A personal communicator in the form of a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) can communicate in multiple modes to provide a user with seamless roaming, handover, and session continuity between multiple network or peer to peer communications. The WTRU has selectively operable transceiver components that are configured for wireless mobile network communications with mobile network base stations, wireless local network communications with local network base stations, and wireless peer to peer communications with other WTRUs. Various methods are provided utilizing the WTRU's multiple network communicating capabilities.

Abstract: A wireless communication method and system for assigning multi-paths to Rake receiver fingers. A Rake finger assignment database is established in which multi-path signals are categorized into a verified group and an unverified group. Each multi-path is assigned to an individual bin in the database. Each bin includes a pilot phase data field, an antenna data field, a code data field, an averaged signal strength data field, an assigned flag data field, a verification flag data field, an update flag data field, an assigned Rake finger number data field and an assignment time counter data field. The multi-path signals in the verified group are further categorized into an assigned subgroup and an unassigned subgroup. During a measurement interval, each of a plurality of newly measured multi-path signals is compared to the multi-path signals in the database and is processed accordingly.

Abstract: A cellular network monitors the location of a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). The cellular network is also aware of the location of each data pump capable of communicating with the cellular network. The data pump capable of transmitting data at a high data rate. The cellular network coordinating a high data rate transfer between the WTRU and the data pump.
