  • Patent number: 8199774
    Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed that receives variable sized packets in a communication system.

  • Patent number: 7366117
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for sharing a DL-DPCH in an NB-TDD system. Two time slots at the same position in two subframes forming one radio frame are allocated as a DPCH for two UEs. A Node B arranges data and control information for the UEs in the two time slots and transmits the data and control information to the UEs. The UEs extract the data and control information from the two time slots and acquire the data and control information destined for the individual UEs.

  • Patent number: 7352721
    Abstract: A joint channel and Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation apparatus and method simplified to efficiently estimate a channel impulse response associated with a spatially selective transmission channel occurring in a mobile radio channel are provided. To uniformly process all directions, angles associated with a beam are predetermined according to a preset method. This selection calculates a linear system model with regular spatial sampling using regular spatial separation of beam angles. The novel beam forming compensates for a difference between an adaptive array antenna and a sector type antenna using appropriate beam steering according to the calculated linear system model, thereby improving performance and facilitating implementation.

  • Patent number: 7342535
    Abstract: A beam-forming apparatus and method for improving system performance using a spatial interpolation and at least one Angle of Arrival (AoA) in a system based on regular spatial sampling is provided. The AoA is estimated using a carrier-to-interference ratio. Beam-forming angles are distributed and steered in a predefined scheme such that an identical process is applied in all directions. According to this steering, a linear system model is computed based on regular spatial sampling using regular spatial separation at beam angles. Beam-forming performance is improved by compensating for a difference between adaptive and sector-type arrays. Only the steps of computing a spatial interpolation and determining an angle range for beam-forming using at least one AoA are added. The precision of estimating an AoA and the precision of beam-forming increase without an additional antenna. Because the system is simpler than that of an adaptive beam-forming system, significant gain is obtained.

  • Publication number: 20050276361
    Abstract: A noise and interference power measurement apparatus for an antenna diversity system that services a plurality of users with an array antenna having a plurality of antenna elements. A channel estimator estimates a channel impulse response for a radio channel corresponding to a predetermined plurality of regularly spaced direction-of-arrival (DOA) values. A data estimator estimates the received data using a received signal and a system matrix. A quantizer quantizes the estimated data. An interference and noise calculator calculates noise vectors at the respective antenna elements by removing from the received signal an influence of the quantized data to which the system matrix is applied, calculates an estimated noise matrix at the plurality of antenna elements, calculates interference power by auto-correlating the estimated noise matrix, and calculates noise and interference power based on the interference power.

  • Publication number: 20050259006
    Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for simply estimating joint channel and Direction-of-Arrival (DOA) to efficiently estimate a channel impulse response associated with a spatially selective transmission channel occurring in a mobile radio channel, and performing efficient beam forming using the simplified joint channel and DOA estimation are provided. A receiver estimates the total interference power using power for each interference signal, estimates a spectral noise density, calculates steering vectors considering predetermined DOAs, and jointly calculates optimal weight vectors for each DOA of each user by applying the interference power and the spectral noise density to the steering vectors. The beam forming reduces implementation complexity of a TDD system such as a TD-SCDMA and increases beam forming efficiency in a mobile environment by efficiently using spatial diversity.
