Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for detecting a pilot signal in a wireless receiver using coherent combining/noncoherent detection techniques. Coherent combining/noncoherent detection techniques are used to detect the pilot signal whenever the receiver is already frequency locked, or otherwise known to have a small frequency offset Conventional noncoherent combining/noncoherent detection techniques are utilized to initially acquire the timing of the forward channel. Once the receiver is frequency locked, coherent combining/noncoherent detection techniques may be used to continuously detect the pilot signals. After the receiver is frequency locked, the residue frequency error is small over several consecutive correlator outputs The correlator outputs can thus be combined coherently (since the frequency error is known to be small), and the phase dependency is then eliminated by noncoherent detection.

Abstract: In a radio communication system, each of user terminals together with transmitting a data signal to a base station using different data transmission band frequencies that are assigned by a base station, performs time-division multiplexing of a pilot signal with the data signal and transmit the resulting signal to the base station. A resource management unit of the base station decides pilot transmission bands for each user terminal so that the pilot transmission band covers the data transmission band for each user terminal by frequency offset, and instructs the user terminal to transmit pilot signals using the decided pilot transmission band frequencies. Thereby the base station can estimate channel for each frequency of the data transmission band using the pilot signal.

Abstract: Techniques to perform channel estimation with pilot weighting are described. A receiver receives at least one transmission symbol for a pilot transmitted by a transmitter. Each transmission symbol may be generated with a single-carrier multiplexing scheme (e.g., IFDMA or LFDMA) or a multi-carrier multiplexing scheme (e.g., OFDMA). The receiver processes each received transmission symbol and obtains received pilot values. The receiver may derive an interference estimate based on the received pilot values and may estimate the reliability of the received pilot values based on the interference estimate. The receiver determines weights for the received pilot values based on the transmitted pilot values, the estimated reliability of the received pilot values, and/or other information. The receiver derives a channel estimate based on the received pilot values and the weights. The receiver then performs data detection (e.g., equalization) on received data values with the channel estimate.
