Abstract: A method for handling a jamming signal in a wireless network includes obtaining network measurement data collected by a wireless network element. A first performance information relating to a Key Performance Indicator, data collected during a quiet time, or a report on a bogus Physical Random Access Channel signal, or a combination thereof, is selected from the network measurement data. The first performance information is examined with respect to a first reference information. An action is initiated if the examination of the first performance information indicates the presence of a potential jamming signal.

Abstract: Detecting and jamming a wireless network using an intelligent jammer comprises determining that a signal source is an unlicensed signal source, synchronizing the intelligent jammer with the unlicensed signal source, determining a time and a frequency of a protocol signal associated with the unlicensed signal source, and transmitting a jamming signal according to the time and the frequency of the protocol signal.

Abstract: A method for handling a jamming signal in a wireless network includes obtaining network measurement data on a wireless network performance, the network measurement data collected by a wireless network element. A first performance information on the wireless network performance is derived based on the network measurement data obtained. The first performance information is examined with respect to a predefined value. An alert is issued to indicate a presence of a potential jamming signal based on a result of the examination of the first performance information.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for estimating and compensating a carrier frequency offset, and a data receiving method in a receiver of a wireless communication system. The apparatus correlates a received signal with a signal delayed by a predetermined period of the received signal in a correlation window, wherein the correlation window is set based on a Cycle Prefix (CP) and a preamble repetition length from a predetermined position, converts the correlated value into a phase value, compensates a phase of the converted result according to preamble segment numbers, and estimates an initial carrier frequency offset value.

Abstract: A method of detecting a frame boundary of a received signal in a digital communication system, the method including: generating a delayed signal by delaying the received signal by a predetermined period; calculating a correlation value by correlating the received signal with the delayed signal for a predetermined correlation length in a time domain; and determining a timing index corresponding to a maximum value, as a frame boundary index, from a plurality of correlation values which are obtained by repeating the calculation.

Abstract: An apparatus for searching for a cell in a mobile communication system, including: a preamble sequence storage unit storing preamble sequences each of which corresponds to one preamble index, and a cell searching unit correlating a received signal and the stored preamble sequences in a time domain and identifying the preamble index corresponding to the received signal. The cell searching apparatus correlates a received signal and stored preamble sequences in a time domain. The apparatus employs binary quantization of preamble sequences to reduce calculation and memory size. Also, the stored preamble sequences are phase pre-rotated according to a segment number, to prevent from a burden of frequency offset correction caused by three different hypotheses. Accordingly, a complexity of the cell searching apparatus is reduced and cell searching performance becomes more accurate.
