  • Patent number: 9954575
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the selective provision of interference canceled signal streams to demodulating fingers in a communication receiver. According to the present invention, potential interferer signal paths are identified. Signal streams having one or more potential interferer signals removed or canceled are created, and a correlation is performed to determine whether the strength of a desired signal path increased as a result. If the correlation indicates that the strength of a desired signal path was increased by the signal cancellation, the interference canceled signal stream is provided to the demodulation finger assigned to track the desired signal path. If the correlation determines that the strength of the desired signal path did not increase as a result of performing interference cancellation, the raw or a different interference canceled signal stream is provided to the demodulation finger.

  • Patent number: 9602158
    Abstract: A receiver in a CDMA system comprises a front end processor that generates a combined signal per source. A symbol estimator processes the combined signal to produce symbol estimates. An S-Matrix Generation module refines these symbol estimates based on the sub channel symbol estimates. An interference canceller is configured for cancelling interference from at least one of the plurality of received signals for producing at least one interference-cancelled signal.

  • Publication number: 20170070260
    Abstract: A receiver includes a first finger that receives a non-interference-cancelled signal and output first demodulated data, a first phase estimate, and a first PN code. The receiver also includes a second finger that selectively receives the non-interference-cancelled signal and a first interference-cancelled signal generated from the non-interference-cancelled signal based on the first phase estimate and the first PN code. The second finger also outputs second demodulated data.

  • Patent number: 9544044
    Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for parallel interference suppression. In one embodiment of the invention, a processing engine is used to substantially cancel a plurality of interfering signals within a received signal. The processing engine includes a plurality of matrix generators that are used to generate matrices, each matrix comprising elements of a unique interfering signal selected for cancellation. The processing engine also includes one or more processors that use the matrices to generate cancellation operators. A plurality of applicators applies the cancellation operators to parallel but not necessarily unique input signals to substantially cancel the interfering signals from the input signals. These input signals may include received signals, interference cancelled signals and/or PN codes.

  • Patent number: 9118400
    Abstract: An interference cancelling receiver combines data from multiple paths after aligning to transmitter timing, and uses either an equalizer or a Rake receiver to compute symbol estimates. Interference estimates are generated from the symbol estimates, and multiple interference estimates are combined after re-aligning the interference estimates to receiver timing. At least two segments of symbol estimates are computed for each segment of interference cancelled data. Various techniques may be employed for controlling the latency and sequencing of these operations, and the subsystems within the canceller may use different processing clock speeds.

  • Patent number: 9036748
    Abstract: A receiver employs low-rate processing to synthesize the effect of high-rate interference in a received multi-rate signal. Each high-rate subchannel is analyzed on its low-rate descendents to produce symbol estimates for each low-rate symbol interval. The symbol estimates are applied to low-rate descendent subchannels, which are then combined to synthesize the effects of the high-rate interference. An interference canceller processes the synthesized interference with the received signal for producing an interference-cancelled signal. Alternatively, analogous steps may be applied at high-rate to analyze, synthesize, and cancel the effects of low-rate interference in a multi-rate signal.
