- This invention relates to cellular telephony, and in particular to cellular
- CDMA code division multiple access
- an information data stream to be transmitted is impressed upon a much higher bit rate data stream generated by a pseudo-random
- Each information data stream or channel is allocated a unique spreading
- a plurality of spread spectrum signals are transmitted on radio frequency
- spread spectrum signals overlaps all of the other spread spectrum signals, as well
- Multipath propagation in which a radio signal takes many paths from a transmitter
- the combining technique typically
- a correlation is performed at the receiver using what was received (i.e., the received predefined symbol) and what was known to have
- method of continually updating the estimate is to transmit the predefined symbol in each time slot, calculate the channel estimate for each time slot and keep the
- bandwidth for transmitting data symbols. Since bandwidth is a precious resource
- Backstrom et al. describes a method for improving the reception of a transmission
- the digital verification color code different purpose, i.e., the digital verification color code.
- pilot symbols may be predefined symbols termed "pilot symbols”.
- pilot signal i.e., using it's own spreading code
- the number of pilot symbols could be increased. However, this would decrease the number of data symbols and thus, reduce the transmission bit rate for
