  • Patent number: 9385841
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for transmitting and receiving data in a wireless communication system. A number of errors for a received data is determined. A power boosting message is generated and transmitted based on the number of errors to a transmitting apparatus such that the transmitting apparatus is configured to transmit data using a boosting power.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8605665
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for Transmission Time Interval (TTI) reconfiguration in a mobile communication system are provided. The apparatus includes an ACK/NACK determiner, an ACK/NACK controller, and a TTI controller. The ACK/NACK determiner determines if a response signal to be transmitted is ACKnowledgment (ACK) or Non ACKnowledgment (NACK) depending on an error or non-error of data received from a User Equipment (UE). The ACK/NACK controller counts the ACK and NACK determined in the ACK/NACK determiner. The TTI controller identifies if number of the latest ACKs counted in the ACK/NACK controller is continuously generated by preset number of times and, if it is continuously generated by the present number of times, reconfigures a new TTI.

  • Patent number: 8510609
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for rate dematching in a communication system are provided. The apparatus includes an input sequence generator, an error calculator, and a puncture/repetition determiner. The input sequence generator calculates if current input data among data, which are input in interleaved sequence, corresponds to any nth sequence among before-interleaved sequence. The error calculator calculates an error for the current input data using the calculated sequence. The puncture/repetition determiner determines type of the current input data using the error for the current input data.

  • Patent number: 7567609
    Abstract: A space-time multiuser detector simultaneously reduces multiple access interference (MAI) and multipath channel distortion (MCD) that are disadvantages of mobile communication systems. The space-time multiuser detector includes a plurality of receiving antennas; a channel estimator which estimates signals received via the receiving antennas; a space-time diversity decoder which performs space-time decoding with respect to the signals provided from the channel estimator and performs diversity combination; a signal aligner which aligns the signals provided from the space-time diversity decoder; and a successive interference cancellation detector which generates an interference signal from the signals that are provided from the signal aligner one by one in sequence, and removes the interference signal from the received original signals.
