Title: Method and apparatus for variable rate signal transmission in a spread spectrum communication system using coset coding
Inventor: ZEHAVI EPHRAIM
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 1994-10-31
Abstract: An improved system and method for communicating information at variable data rates over in-phase (I) and quadrature phase (Q) communication channels in a CDMA spread spectrum communication system is disclosed herein. In an exemplary implementation an input information signal is transmitted over either an I or Q communication channel using a direct sequence spread spectrum communication signal. The information signal is initially divided into first and second subsignals, which are respectively provided to first and second coset-encoding networks. The first coset-encoding combines the first subsignal with a first coset code, while the second coset-encoding network combines the second subsignal with a second coset code orthogonal to the first coset code. In this way the first and second coset-encoding networks are operative to produce first and second coset-encoded signals, respectively. A composite coset-encoded signal formed from the first and second coset-encoded signals is then modulated by an orthogonal function signal to provide a first modulated signal. In-phase pseudorandom noise (PNI) and quadrature phase pseudorandom noise (PNQ) signals of predetermined PN codes are used for spreading the first modulated signal for transmission to a receiver over either the I or Q communication channel, respectively. The receiver is operative to produce an estimate of the input information signal on the basis of the modulated carrier signal received over either the I or Q communication channel.

Title: Remote transmitter power control in a contention based multiple access system
Inventor: TIEDEMANN EDWARD G JR
IPC: H04B/
Filed: 1995-07-13
Abstract: The power control process of the present invention enables a base station communicating over a forward packet channel to a mobile radio to control the power of the mobile radio transmitting over a reverse packet channel to the base station. The base station maintains a maximum energy per bit to total interference spectral density ratio threshold for the reverse channel as well as a desired threshold that results in a low frame error rate. By comparing each radiotelephone's estimated energy per bit to total interference spectral density ratio to the desired and maximum thresholds, power control commands to increase or decrease the radiotelephone's transmit power are generated depending on the outcome of the comparison. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides an automatic power restoring method capable of reliably detecting continuity by the dissolution of a line fault, to restore the optical power, even in a structure including an optical amplification medium on an optical transmission path and an optical communication system using the method. To this end, in an optical communication system to which the automatic power restoring method of the invention is applied, a pilot signal having a low transmission rate, a wavelength of which is set based on loss wavelength characteristics obtained by combining loss wavelength characteristics of an optical fiber used for the optical transmission path and loss wavelength characteristics of the optical amplification medium on the optical transmission path, is transmitted and received between an optical transmitting station and an optical receiving station when a line fault occurs, and a detection of continuity is thus performed. According to the result of the continuity detection, the power state at the occurrence of line fault is automatically restored to the power state at a time of normal operation.
