Dynamically Adjusting Integration Interval Based On A Signal Strength

View page
US Patent:
6477162, Nov 5, 2002
Filed:
Mar 31, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/540798
Inventors:
Gwain Bayley - Carlsbad CA
Robbin Hughes - San Diego CA
Assignee:
Qualcomm, Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04B 7216
US Classification:
370342, 455434, 375152
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for improving searching in a remote unit of a slotted mode, wireless, communication system. In a slotted mode communication system, the remote unit is in an âactive stateâ during its assigned slot. While in the active state, a controller in the remote unit passes selected sets of search parameters to a search engine. The integration interval of the searches performed is based on the measured signal strength of another base station. The search engine performs searches using the integration interval. Searching continues as long as the remote unit is in the active state. When the remote unit enters the inactive state, searching ceases.

Decoding With Partial State Information On A Convolutionally Encoded Channel

View page
US Patent:
6519297, Feb 11, 2003
Filed:
Dec 20, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/741969
Inventors:
Brian K. Butler - La Jolla CA
Gwain Bayley - San Diego CA
David Hansquine - San Diego CA
Assignee:
Qualcomm, Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04L 2706
US Classification:
375341, 714786
Abstract:
The certainties of transmitted bits at predetermined locations in time are determined a priori. This information is then used to set the states of a Viterbi decoder to different state metrics in accordance with the certainties of the transmitted bits. High certainty of a transmitted bit results in resetting the states corresponding to that bit to a high state metric. In contrast, low certainty of a transmitted bit results in resetting the states corresponding to that bit to a low state metric. Resetting the states to different state metrics improves the decoding performance and shortens the time required to converge the decoding trellis by eliminating improbable paths.

Efficient Detection Of General Paging Messages In Poor Signal To Noise Environments

View page
US Patent:
6539242, Mar 25, 2003
Filed:
Mar 31, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/540799
Inventors:
Gwain Bayley - Carlsbad CA
Assignee:
Qualcomm Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04Q 720
US Classification:
455574, 370311, 455343
Abstract:
A method of and an apparatus for reducing the average power consumption in a remote unit in a wireless communication system. When a remote unit in a slotted mode communication system enters an active state, it receives a sequence of messages. One element of this sequence is a general paging message that command the remote unit to return to the inactive state immediately, thus conserving battery power. The general paging message is followed by several additional elements in the sequence. When the remote unit operates in a poor signal-to-noise ratio environment, for example, it may not receive the general paging message and may, thus, unnecessarily remain in the active state until the end of its assigned slot, wasting battery power. The invention determines whether the element received by the remote unit is a general paging message. If so, the remote unit enters the inactive mode.

Virtual Device Architecture For Mobile Telephones

View page
US Patent:
6553223, Apr 22, 2003
Filed:
Dec 30, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/475335
Inventors:
Gwain Bayley - Carlsbad CA
Guanming Shi - San Diego CA
Richard Higgins - San Diego CA
Albert Scott Ludwin - San Diego CA
Assignee:
Qualcomm Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04M 300
US Classification:
455419, 455575, 455550, 455418
Abstract:
The virtual device architecture provides physical and logical device drivers for interfacing software programs executing on a microprocessor of the mobile telephone of a wireless communication system with any of a wide variety of hardware devices connectable within the mobile telephone. The logical device drivers convert commands received from the software applications to commands appropriate for use by selected hardware devices. The physical device drivers receive the converted commands from the logical device drivers and in response to the received commands directly control the selected hardware devices. In one example described herein, the logical device drivers provide translation of core commands necessary to control the selected hardware devices and extended commands for enhanced control of the hardware devices. The logical device drivers operate to convert the extended commands into core commands prior to forwarding the commands to the physical device drivers. By providing logical and physical drivers for use with peripheral devices, the need to provide different versions of software executing on the microprocessor to accommodate different types of peripheral devices is substantially eliminated resulting in a considerable reduction in time and cost associated with developing, maintaining and upgrading software.

Slotted Mode Decoder State Metric Initialization

View page
US Patent:
6665832, Dec 16, 2003
Filed:
Mar 31, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/539852
Inventors:
Arthur James Neufeld - San Diego CA
Gwain Bayley - Carlsbad CA
Assignee:
Qualcomm, Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H03M 1303
US Classification:
714786, 375341
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for improving the performance of a convolutional encoder used in a slotted mode communication system. In a typical slotted mode communication system a stream of continuously convolutionally encoded symbols is transmitted by a base station. A remote unit, comprising a convolutional decoder to decode the stream of symbols periodically transits between active and inactive states. While in the inactive state the remote unit misses a portion of the continuous stream of symbols. Following the interruption of the stream of symbols, the state metrics of a trellis within the decoder are initialized. Initialization of the state metrics may be such that the decoding process will be biased towards only valid states and away from invalid states. In addition, the initialization may be such that there is not a bias towards any particular state within the trellis.

Dynamic Recognition Of An Empty General Paging Message

View page
US Patent:
6765893, Jul 20, 2004
Filed:
Mar 31, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/540797
Inventors:
Gwain Bayley - Carlsbad CA
Assignee:
Qualcomm Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04B 7216
US Classification:
370335, 370342, 370441
Abstract:
A method of and an apparatus for reducing the average power consumption in a remote unit in a wireless communication system. When a remote unit in a slotted mode communication system receives a general paging massage, it deinterleaves and decodes the raw data samples. Prior to parsing, it compares the decoded data samples with samples stored in a memory. Based on this comparison, the remote unit determines whether or not the message is empty. If the message is empty, the remote unit transitions to an inactive state. By comparing before parsing, the remote unit is able to conserve power by entering the inactive state sooner. If no samples are stored in the memory, instead of comparing, the remote unit parses the message and executes any instructions. If, upon parsing, the remote unit determines the message to be empty, at least a portion of the message is stored in the memory.

Dynamic Adjustment Of Search Window Size In Response To Signal Strength

US Patent:
6775252, Aug 10, 2004
Filed:
Mar 31, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/540922
Inventors:
Gwain Bayley - Carlsbad CA
Assignee:
Qualcomm, Inc. - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04Q 700
US Classification:
370328, 370342, 370335, 370479
Abstract:
A method and apparatus of adjusting a search window size by a remote unit in a slotted mode wireless communication system. In a slotted mode communication system, the remote unit is in an âactive stateâ during its assigned slot. While in the active state the controller in a remote unit passes selected sets of search parameters to a search engine. The search engine performs searches on base stations using the selected sets of search parameters. One search parameter, the search window size, is adjusted in response to a measured signal strength of a first base station signal. The adjusted search window size is used by the remote unit when searching other base stations.

Prioritization Of Searching By A Remote Unit In A Wireless Communication System

View page
US Patent:
6944143, Sep 13, 2005
Filed:
Mar 31, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/540802
Inventors:
Gwain Bayley - Carlsbad CA, US
Robbin Hughes - San Diego CA, US
Messay Amerga - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Qualcomm Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04Q007/00
US Classification:
370332, 370331, 455437, 4552262
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for improving searching in a remote unit of a slotted mode, wireless, communication system. In a slotted mode communication system, the remote unit enters an “active state” during its assigned slot. While in the active state, a controller in the remote unit passes selected sets of search parameters to a search engine. The order that the searches are performed is based on the measured signal strength and the age of the measurement. The search engine performs searches using the selected sets of search parameters. Searching continues as long as the remote unit is in the active state. When the remote unit enters the inactive state, searching ceases. While in the inactive state, the controller evaluates the results of the searches performed during the previous active state. During the next active state, the next sequence of searching is performed based on measured signal strength and the measurement age corresponding to the measurements made during the previous active state.
