Abstract: A linear least squares (LLS) estimator provides a low complexity estimation of the location of a mobile terminal (MT), using one of the fixed terminals (FTs) as a reference FT to derive a linear model. A method for selecting a reference FT is disclosed, which improves the location accuracy relative to an arbitrary approach to selecting the reference FT. In addition, a covariance-matrix based LLS estimator is proposed in line-of-sight (LOS) and non-LOS (NLOS) environments to further provide accuracy, taking advantage of the correlation of the observations. Different techniques for selecting the reference FT under non-LOS (NLOS) conditions are disclosed. A map-based two-stage LLS estimator assists in selecting the reference FT under NLOS conditions.

Abstract: When a network pages the temporary user mobile identifier of a mobile station, the mobile station sends a response to the network. Next, the network checks the authenticity of the user using a ciphering key, corresponding to the temporary user mobile identifier and a random number. If the temporary user mobile identifier is authenticated, a normal incoming call acceptance procedure is executed. If the mobile station is authenticated although the temporary user mobile identifier is wrong, the network reassigns a new temporary user mobile identifier to the mobile station and stops the current communication. In communication, the network and the mobile station mutually notify encipherment-onset time and negotiate about encipherment manner with each other. In addition, diversity handover is commenced upon a call attempt. Furthermore, if a branch replacement is necessary, the current branch is replaced by new branches capable of executing the diversity handover.

Abstract: A control for varying a maximum transmission power of a transmitter according to a propagation loss or a distance between the transmitter and a receiver is made possible to reduce deterioration of a user capacity to a minimum. In a wave propagation loss measurement section, a calculation is performed on the basis of an amplification factor of a reception amplifier, amplitude information and a base station transmission power information of a reception baseband signal to calculate a wave propagation loss of a reception signal, thereby estimating a propagation loss of transmission signal. The wave propagation loss information is inputted to a maximum amplification amount designation circuit to decide a maximum amplification factor. The maximum amplification amount designation circuit adjusts a maximum transmission power of the transmission signal by designating the decided maximum amplification factor to a transmission amplifier.
