Filed:

Sep 19, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/247414

Inventors:

Anthony Reid - Plano TX, US

Assignee:

Nokia Corporation - Espoo

International Classification:

H04B001/40

US Classification:

455 75, 455 70, 455 71, 455255, 455256, 455257, 375341, 375340, 375350

Abstract:

Apparatus, and an associated method, for facilitating frequency offset estimation between communication stations operable in a communication system. A likelihood polynomial is calculated and provided to a filter. The filter forms a filtered representation of the likelihood polynomial, and the filtered representations are down-sampled by a decimator. A sampled, filtered representation of the likelihood polynomial is thereby obtained. The filtered, sampled representation is applied to a root calculator that calculates the roots of the polynomial, thereafter, to be used to compensate for the frequency offset.

Inventors:

Anthony Reid - Plano TX, US

Assignee:

Nokia Corporation - Espoo

International Classification:

H04L 27/06
H04B 1/10

US Classification:

375340, 375350

Abstract:

A method of modeling channel parameters in Doppler environments estimates both the channel model and the coefficients simultaneously, thus not requiring additional packet overhead. This adaptive technique refines the channel coefficients as the estimate of the model accuracy improves with channel measurements. The underlying models are very accurate representations of Jakes models because they are computed off-line, thus the error prone approaches of trying to estimate one model from the observations are avoided.

International Classification:

H04L 27/06

US Classification:

375341

Abstract:

A method, computer program and apparatus operate so as to execute a two-dimensional (2-D) M survivor multi-resolution search algorithm and procedure for a signal received over a channel. The method includes, from one search stage to a next search stage, increasing parameter resolution while fixing a number of search operations at each search stage by a predetermined number of parameter survivors (M); and determining a Maximum Likelihood joint metric based on an accumulated value of survived search stages.

International Classification:

H04W 4/00

US Classification:

370329, 370230, 370236, 3703102

Abstract:

A prospective relay station sends a report indicative of radio resource sets/preamble sequences used by its neighbors. Where the reported radio resource sets comprise less than all available radio resource sets, a radio resource set that is not indicated in the report is assigned; else where the reported radio resource sets comprise all available radio resource sets, a resource set indicated in the report is assigned. A message is sent to the prospective relay station indicates the assigned radio resource set and an identifier for use as an enabled relay station. The message may include signal strength and IDs. Apparatus, methods and computer programs are detailed for both a base station and the relay node. Radio resource set re-assignment, managed mode relay operations (where the base station schedules traffic among relays using the same radio resource set), and power control of relays and associated mobile stations are also described.

International Classification:

H03M013/03

US Classification:

714/792000

Abstract:

Disclosed is a system and method for improving efficiency and overall capacity of data transmission within a given bandwidth in a GPRS/EDGE wireless air-link channel. A GPRS data terminal, mobile unit and/or other end-user equipment is equipped with a (specially designed) Trellis coder that replaces the traditional cyclic coder and allows encoding and decoding of data via the Trellis code algorithm. Trellis coder eliminates errors in data transmission, increases capacity in a given bandwidth, and corrects problems with fading channels associated with wireless transmission. The Trellis coder is also utilized for voice transmission and may be fabricated on an integrated circuit for utilization within hand-held devices.
