Abstract: An Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS) module time synchronization method and device using system time information in a mobile terminal that perform time synchronization using system frame information and a GPS module operation period in a process of searching for the position of a terminal using the AGPS module in an asynchronous mobile communication system. Accordingly, the GPS module operation period is set to be greater than the system frame period so that GPS system time can be immediately seen when an arbitrary GPS tick interrupt is operated.

Abstract: A transmitting/receiving apparatus and method for packet retransmission in a mobile communication system. Upon request for a retransmission from a receiver, a transmitter generates first coded bits by inverting initially transmitted coded bits, generates second coded bits by separating the initially transmitted coded bits into a first bit group having a relatively high priority and a second bit group having a relatively low priority and exchanging the first bit group with the second bit group, and generates third coded bits by inverting the exchanged coded bits. The transmitter selects one of the first coded bits, the second coded bits according to the sequence number of a retransmission request received from the receiver, and the third coded bits and maps the selected coded bits to modulation symbols. The transmitter then transmits the modulation symbols to the receiver.

Abstract: A data transmitting/receiving apparatus and method for improving the reliability of data bits in a CDMA mobile communication system.

Abstract: An apparatus for retransmitting data at a retransmission request from a receiver by a transmitter in a CDMA mobile communication system including a turbo encoder with a given coding rate and initially transmitting systematic bits and parity bits obtained by encoding the data by the turbo encoder using one modulation mode among a plurality of modulation modes. A controller determines a modulation mode to be used between the transmitter and the receiver in response to the retransmission request. A distributor distributes coded bits obtained by encoding the data at the coding rate into systematic bits and parity bits. A selector selects coded bits transmittable by the determined modulation mode among the systematic bits and the parity bits at the initial transmission, if the determined modulation mode is different from the modulation mode used at initial transmission. A modulator modulates the transmittable coded bits into modulated symbols according to the determined modulation mode.

Abstract: In an apparatus for data transmission in a communication system, a turbo encoder encodes data bits to generate systematic bits and parity bits, and a rate matcher matches the systematic bits and parity bits. A first interleaver writes the rate-matched systematic bits on a row by row basis, and performs inter-column permutation. A second interleaver writes the rate-matched parity bits on a row-by-row basis, and performs inter-column permutation. A modulator alternatively collects the permutated bits on a column by column basis from the first and second interleavers, and maps collected bits from the first and second interleavers onto one modulation symbol, wherein a size of the first interleaver is equal to a size of the second interleaver.

Abstract: A transmitter simultaneously performs channel coding and rate matching in a CDMA mobile communication system. The transmitter encoders input bits into coded bits at a given mother code rate, and performs puncturing on the coded bits in order to match the number of coded bits to a predetermined code rate. Thereafter, the transmitter simultaneously performs rate matching for repeating or puncturing the coded bits in order to match the number of coded bits to the number of bits transmitted over a radio channel.

Abstract: A method for retransmitting coded bits by a transmitter in response to a retransmission request from a receiver in a mobile communication system which separates coded bits output from an encoder into coded bits with higher priority and coded bits with lower priority, and transmits from the transmitter to the receiver a stream of symbols obtained by symbol mapping the coded bits by a specific modulation technique. The method comprises determining orthogonal codes available for retransmission; separating the coded bits with higher priority and the coded bits with lower priority into a plurality of sub-packets with a given size, and selecting a part of the sub-packets or sub-packets to be repeatedly transmitted, depending on the determined number of available orthogonal codes; and transmitting a stream of symbols obtained by symbol-mapping coded bits of the selected sub-packets by the specific modulation technique, with the determined available orthogonal codes.
