  • Publication number: 20070058706
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method are provided for detecting asynchronous transmission in a wireless communication system. In a transmitter, a correlator correlates a baseband transmission sample signal with a preamble signal. A decider detects a peak among correlations received from the correlator and determines whether transmission of the transmission sample signal is asynchronous by comparing a frame reference time with a detection time of the peak.

  • Publication number: 20060035601
    Abstract: A TDD transceiver for utilizing a Tx mode and an Rx mode simultaneously and a self-diagnostic method therefor. In the TDD transceiver, a transmitter transmits a Tx signal from a Tx path to an antenna. A receiver for processes an Rx signal to a baseband signal. A detector couples the Tx signal in the transmitter and provides the coupled Tx signal to the receiver. A diagnostic portion determines if the TDD transceiver is normal or abnormal using the Tx signal received from the receiver.
