Abstract: Disclosed are an error-detecting encoding apparatus for creating parity bits by error-detecting encoding processing, appending the parity bits to an input data string and encoding the data string, and an error-detecting decoding apparatus for detecting error using these parity bits. Data segmenting means segments an input data string, which is to undergo error-detecting encoding, into a plurality of sub-data strings, dividing means divides the segmented sub-data strings by a polynomial, which is for generating an error-detecting code, and calculates remainders, converting means applies conversion processing, which conforms to a segmentation position of the sub-data strings, to the remainders on a per-remainder basis, and combining means combines converted values, which have been obtained by the conversion processing, and outputs parity bits. An encoder appends this parity to a data string, and a decoder detects error using this parity.

Abstract: A spread modulator spreads a signal series. A subcarrier modulator modulates a plurality of subcarriers having different frequencies using the output of the spread modulator. The adder combines modulated subcarriers. A guard interval control unit determines the length of a guard interval depending on the maximum transmission delay difference of the communication link between the transmission device and the reception device. A guard interval insert unit inserts a guard interval into a signal series under the control of a guard interval control unit. A gain adjuster multiplies a transmission signal by a gain coefficient corresponding to the inserted guard interval.

Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile radio communication system in which a position registration area number is reported from a base station to a mobile station within a radio zone, position information indicating a position registration area in which a mobile station resides is registered in storage means based upon position registration information that has been transmitted from the mobile station, and when there is an incoming call to a mobile station, a paging call is placed from a plurality of base stations within the position registration area, in which the base station resides, based upon position information that has been read out of the memory means.

Abstract: In a CDMA transmitting apparatus, a cross-correlation value between different spreading-code sequences used to spread respective ones of a plurality of transmit signals is calculated, an interference interval of a spreading-code sequence is discriminated from the cross-correlation value calculated, and interference noise is reduced by halting transmission of at least one transmit signal, or partially altering at least one spreading-code sequence, with regard to all or part of a spreading-code sequence discriminated to be an interference interval.

Abstract: An n-bit binary value corresponding to an amount of phase shift d is assigned to an SREG, and a shift operation is performed. An n-bit vector value corresponding to a decimal value “1” is assigned to an LAT as an initial value. Thereafter, the input from an SW is sequentially stored. An MUL performs a square operation within a Galois field GF (2n) for the output of the LAT. A DBL performs a double operation within the Galois field GF (2n) for the output of the MUL. The SW selects either of the outputs of the MUL and the DBL according to the output value from the MSB side of the SREG. After the shift operation and the latch operation are performed a number of times n, the n-bit output of the LAT is output as respective phase shift coefficients b0 through bn−1.

Abstract: A transmission circuit transmits a connection request including a “signature” to a base station. The demodulator demodulates the AICH for transmitting a notification corresponding to the connection request. When requested communications are enabled, the AICH transmits the “signature”. A multiplier multiplies a demodulation signal by the “signature”. A voltage computation unit converts the output of the multiplier into a voltage value. An integrator integrates the voltage value computed by the voltage computation unit for each received symbol for the respective symbols corresponding to the “signature”. A threshold generation unit adaptively selects one of a threshold determined based on the noise of a transmission path or a threshold determined based on the receiving power. If the output of the integrator is larger than the selected threshold, it is determined that the communications have been enabled.

Abstract: The signal received by an antenna is input to a receiving circuit. The receiving circuit allows the existence of a perch channel in a particular frequency to be examined by frequency-converting the signal having the frequency corresponding to the frequency specification data within the signal received by the antenna based on the frequency specification data from a controlling circuit. A rectifying circuit rectifies the received signal, and outputs the integrated value of the signal value after being rectified. The integrated value is converted into a digital signal by an A/D converter, and compared with a threshold value by a comparing circuit. If the digital signal value is determined to be larger than the threshold value, a Write signal is output to a storing circuit, so that the frequency specification data output from the controlling circuit is stored in the storing circuit.

With this arrangement, the single unit of memory (5) can function as an interleaver and a deinterleaver, thereby reducing the size and cost the device.

Abstract: In a code division multiple access signal receiving apparatus for demodulating transmit data by subjecting a receive signal to despread processing using a code sequence identical with a spreading-code sequence on a transmitting side, a cross-correlation detector calculates a cross-correlation value, on a per-symbol basis, between a spreading-code sequence for spread-spectrum modulating local-station-addressed transmit data and a spreading-code sequence for spread-spectrum modulating other-station-addressed transmit data; a discriminator discriminates whether the calculated cross-correlation value has exceeded a threshold value; and a switch halts input, to a decoder, of a portion of the receive signal that corresponds to the full interval or partial interval of a symbol where the cross-correlation value exceeds the threshold value.

Abstract: A technique used in a mobile communications system. A mobile terminal station transmits a signal subjected to an error-correction encoding processing. Each of a plurality of base stations receives the signal transmitted from the mobile terminal station via the wireless line, performs an error-correction decoding processing for the received signal, and transmits an error-correction decoded signal to a base-station host apparatus via the wired line. The base-station host apparatus performs an error-correction encoding processing for each of the signals received from the base stations, composes the thus error-correction encoded signals into one signal, and performs an error-correction decoding processing for the composed signal. The technique can improve the error rate of a received signal without increasing the amount of signal data flowing between the base stations and the base-station host apparatus.

Abstract: A pseudo-noise generating apparatus capable of starting a pseudo-noise sequence from an arbitrary phase using compact processing circuitry. Tap selection patterns corresponding to a plurality of phase shift amounts are stored in advance in a ROM. By giving a phase shift amount to the ROM and setting the corresponding tap selection pattern in AND gates, the pseudo-noise sequence generated by the pseudo-noise generator is shifted in phase, and is loaded into a shift register. After setting a new phase amount in the ROM, the contents of the shift register are transferred into a shift register in the pseudo-noise generator. By repeating this operation, the desired phase shift is accomplished as a sum of a plurality of phase shift amounts.
