Patent ID: 7522654

Claim:
A finger operating in mixed-rate, comprising: a descrambling means that descrambles received signals by multiplying a PN-code with the received signals using frame timing information; a pilot signal generating means that produces a pilot signal that is to be used as input of a weight vector computing means to compute a weight vector, by using a descrambled signal from the descrambling means, and finds out estimation value for delayed phase of each traffic channel; the weight vector computing means that produces the weight vector by using signals from the descrambling means and the pilot signal generating means; a general weighting means for producing a general weighted signal, by compensating phase delay of a base-band received signal with the weight vector; a pilot phase estimation means that produces phase compensation signal to compensate phase delay of each channel by using the weight vector and the pilot signal; a Walsh despreading means for providing received data for each of traffic channels, by using outputs of the general weighting means, the PN-code and corresponding Walsh codes; and a channel compensation means that compensates phase distortion caused by the phase delay to each output of the Walsh despreading means by using output of the pilot phase estimation means.
