Having Specific Signaling For Code Synchronization Patents (Class 375/145)
  • Patent number: 11916718
    Abstract: Techniques for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction are described. Wireless devices may use one or more PAPR shaping resources, such as expanded bandwidth and/or pulse-shaping filtering, for shaping a signal to reduce PAPR. For example, expanded bandwidth may be utilized for adding a cyclic affix (CA), such as may comprise a cyclic prefix (CP), cyclic suffix (CS), etc., and combinations thereof, to a frequency domain data signal to provide a CP augmented frequency domain data signal used to generate a reduced PAPR time domain data signal. Additionally or alternatively, pulse-shaping filtering may be applied to a frequency domain signal to provide a pulse-shaped frequency domain data signal used to generate a reduced PAPR time domain data signal. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

  • Patent number: 11867828
    Abstract: A radar system operated in a variable power mode includes transmitters, receivers, and a controller. The transmitters transmit digitally modulated signals. The receivers receive radio signals that include transmitted radio signals from the transmitter and reflected from objects in the environment. In addition, an interfering radar signal from a different radar system is received that has been linearly frequency modulated. Each receiver includes a linear frequency modulation canceler that includes a FIR filter, and is configured as a 1-step linear predictor with least mean squares adaptation to attempt to cancel the interfering signal. The prediction is subtracted from the FIR input signal that drives the adaptation and also comprises the canceler output. The controller is configured to control the adaptation on a first receiver. The controller delays the adaptation such that transients at the start of each receive pulse are avoided.

  • Patent number: 10045319
    Abstract: Methods and systems for correction of frequency errors in multi-carrier communication systems. The composite frequency error associated with the downlink signals are used to infer or derive the composite frequency error associated with the uplink signals, which are used to pre-compensate the uplink signals. Special signal components are transmitted by multiple base stations to facilitate frequency-error estimation and other system control functionalities at a mobile device. The mobile device carries out temporal, spatial, or spatial-temporal processing of the composite frequency errors associated with one or more base stations to determine the clock frequency error and the Doppler shift with respect to its serving base station.

  • Patent number: 10009786
    Abstract: A method is provided for calculating a distance to a counterpart user equipment (UE) using device-to-device (D2D) communication, which is calculated by a UE in a wireless communication system. The UE receives a synchronization signal from a cluster head and receives a first discovery signal from the counterpart UE, and calculates a first difference value between a time of receiving the first discovery signal and a time of receiving the synchronization signal. The UE further receives, from the counterpart UE, information on a second difference value and calculates a first sum value of the first difference value and the second difference value. The UE receives, from the cluster head, information on a second sum value. The UE calculates a distance between the UE and the counterpart UE based on a difference between the second sum value and the first sum value.

  • Patent number: 9888450
    Abstract: A method of detecting a synchronization signal at a device-to-device (D2D) user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system includes receiving a primary sidelink synchronization signal (PSSS), determining a normalized carrier frequency offset (CFO) from an initial CFO, determining hypothesis test levels from the normalized CFO, and performing correlation using the received PSSS, a first sequence, a second sequence, a first sequence shifted per hypothesis test level and a second sequence shifted per hypothesis test level. When the number of hypothesis test levels is greater than 1, the shifted first sequence and the shifted second sequence having a complex conjugate relation in a predetermined normalized CFO value are correlated via the same correlator.

  • Patent number: 9729384
    Abstract: A method and wireless communication system may be used for transferring management information. An access point (AP) may transmit a management information base (MIB) information request including a category field and an action details field to a wireless transmit/receive (WTRU). In response to receiving the information request, the WTRU may determine whether or not to provide management information to the AP. When the WTRU provides management information to the AP, the WTRU may compile management information stored in a MIB located in the WTRU and transmit a MIB information report to the AP. The MIB may list a plurality of tables containing information associated with radio resource management (RRM) and at least one table containing physical layer measurements. The AP may include a MIB for storing MIB information of the WTRU. The AP may transmit the stored MIB information of the WTRU in response to a request.
