Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of detecting a space-time code in a mobile communication system. When detecting a space-time code B for a plurality of transmitting antennas, an ML (maximum likelihood) metric, which is generally calculated by using a specific structure of a matrix B, is defined as a new ML metric by reducing a variable of the ML metric. Two dependent sphere decoding processes are performed and an intersection of the decoding results is calculated, and a signal is detected from the ML metric. Therefore, since detection of the space-time code B for the plurality of transmitting antennas is performed by using the newly defined ML metric, an amount of matrix calculated can be reduced, and a calculation amount can be reduced by performing the two dependent sphere decoding processes. Further, since a detection order of symbols is changed according to a channel situation, it is possible to improve the performance of the system.

Abstract: In the method for dynamic IP allocation using a mobile IP in a wireless portable Internet system, a MAC message used to register a mobile subscriber station contains a flag including a mobile IP version parameter. Upon checking the mobile IP version, the mobile subscriber terminal transmits a mobile IP registration request message to a base station during MAC connection establishment. The base station transmits a mobile IP registration reply message to the mobile subscriber in response to the received mobile IP registration request message to allocate a dynamic IP address to the mobile subscriber station. The dynamic IP allocation process is performed through a secondary management connection to achieve a rapid handoff without using a connection identifier. In addition, the present invention supports a seamless service and the use of the mobile IP in the IEEE 802.
