Definitions
- the present invention relates to radio receivers, such as cellular handsets and pagers, and particularly to battery operated radio receivers having power save by reducing the active reception time.
- the Standby mode consists of a relatively long "sleep" interval in which most of the terminal blocks of the mobile station are deactivated, and a relatively short “reception” interval in which the terminal is enabled to receive from the base station transmitted data, usually a paging or a broadcast message, which may be intended for the terminal.
- the mobile station checks whether this message is intended for itself, and according to its contents, decides on further actions, like going to the sleep phase, continuing the reception phase, etc.
- a pre-conditioning or synchronization period in which the receiver pre-conditions the receive path for data detection, e.g., synchronizes to the correct gain, frequency, DC offset, timing, and / or to other parameters the receiver may need. Examples for such parameters are equalizer tap gains when an equalizer is employed, or "fingers" gains and delays when a "RAKE" receiver is employed.
- the batteries provided in the receivers are generally capable of operating the receiver for a total Standby time of approximately 200 hours, and a total Talk time of approximately 2 hours before battery-recharging is required. It would be very desirable to increase this Standby time by decreasing the current drawings on the battery during this time.
- FIG 1 is a schematic illustration of a prior art CDMA mobile station receiver
- FIG 2 is a timing diagram of the Standby period in the prior art receiver of FIG 1 ,
- FIG 3 is a schematic illustration of a CDMA mobile station receiver constructed according to the present invention.
- FIG 4 is a timing diagram of the Standby period in the described embodiments of the present invention.
- FIG 5 is a flowchart of one embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG 6 is a flowchart of another embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG 1 is a schematic block diagram of a typical mobile station direct sequence (CDMA) receiver 100 in accordance with the prior art RF signals are received by an antenna 101 , filtered, amplified and downconverted to an intermediate frequency (IF) by a downconverter 102, amplified by a first automatic gain control (AGC) circuit 103, filtered by a bandpass filter 104, typically a surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter, to eliminate signals outside the required bandwidth, and amplified by a second automatic gain control (AGC) circuit 106
- the amplified IF signals are multiplied by two IF sinusoidal signals
- phase splitter 132 to produce an in-phase signal I and a quadrature signal Q
- the in-phase signal I is multiplied by a mixer 108, filtered by a low-pass filter
- AGC algorithm 126 is coupled to a received power estimator 124 and to the first and second AGC circuits
- a searcher 120 performs the correlations needed to determine the
- de-spreader bank 114 correlated, at the delays determined by searcher 120, by the correlators of a de-spreader bank 114, whose outputs are transferred to the searcher 120
- the outputs of de-spreader bank 114 are combined, in a maximal ratio sense, in a rake combiner 116 and fed to the data detection unit 118 that performs de-interleaving and FEC decoding to produce the final output signal
- An automatic frequency control unit 122 processes the de-spreader bank output to determine the control voltage to be fed to a voltage controlled oscillator 128 (usually a voltage controlled crystal oscillator) which supplies a corrected frequency to the synthesizer unit 130.
- the synthesizer unit 130 generates the frequencies required to the phase splitter 132 and to the down converter 102 so the required frequency will be received.
- a controller unit 140 supplies working parameters and timing signal to the units.
- quadrature receiver Although a quadrature receiver is shown, other receiver types, such as those using IF sampling and other samplings, can be employed.
- FIG. 2 shows an example of reception timing during the Standby mode.
- T AG C is the time required for the AGC to settle
- T mps is the time required for the multipath search (fingers positioning)
- T ⁇ is the time required for the frequency tracking
- T dec is the time require for data detection.
- T A GC mp s and T frs are designed to be long enough to cope with the worst case situation (i.e., bad channel conditions, large channel gain fluctuations, and/or wide multipath spread) since channel conditions and multipath spread are usually not known in advance when long sleep periods are used.
- T mps may reach durations of ⁇ 4-5 ms, and T ⁇ may reach duration of 1-2 ms, resulting in Trfai which may be very long relative to T dec -
- T dec may be in the order of 60 ⁇ Secs but whereas T rfa ⁇ according to the prior art, may reach 5-7 mSecs
- the present invention provides a novel method which reduces the wake-up time of the radio section as well as the baseband section.
- the present invention is particularly efficient for IS-95 CDMA idle applications, and is therefore described below with respect to such an application.
- FIG. 3 is a schematic block diagram of a CDMA mobile station receiver 300 constructed in accordance with the present invention.
- a signal quality estimator 310 is added between the de-spreader bank 114 outputs and the controller 140.
- a receive power comparator 320 is added between the received power estimator 124 and the controller 140. Otherwise the receiver of FIG. 3 is basically of the same prior art construction as illustrated in FIG. 1 , and therefore its parts are identified by the same reference numerals to facilitate understanding.
- FIG. 4 is a timing diagram of the FIG. 3 receiver. In FIG. 4 Tr fb2 is moved to be prior to T rfa2 .
- Trf b2l a very short verification of the AGC level (TA GC ) and the received signal timings (T mps , fingers positions) takes place. Since in the vast majority of the times, the AGC level and the fingers positions do not vary, or vary very little from their values measured at the previous slot (a few seconds before), Tr f 2 takes a very short time (less then ⁇ 1 ms for IS-95 applications). Frequency tracking (T frs ) is done during T rfa2 in parallel to data decoding (T dec ).
- FIG. 5 illustrates one mode of operation as controlled by controller 140.
- a very short measurement of the received signal power is taken (block 510). If the newly measured received signal level does not differ considerably
- window Wo is searched with a time resolution of typically 1 / 2 or 1 chip where
- each position is checked for dwell time of Do (block 550). All the positions with quality measure that exceed the threshold Qth_fo are declared as having a
- Dwell ⁇ -"' ⁇ ' ' r,(i) is the de-spreader output of the j th symbol of the received signal of path i, S, is the transmitted j th symbol (known to the receiver like in IS-95 pilot channel or estimated by the receiver at other applications) and Ep(i) is the estimated power of path i.
- the estimated signal to noise and interference (SNIR) of each path can serve as a quality measure:
- lt(i) is the estimated averaged sum of noise and interference at path i. It(i) can be estimated by:
- a quality measure is then applied on the found paths.
- Various quality measures can be used, for example: estimated sum of powers of all found paths:
- the receiver goes into a sleep mode until the slot beginning (block 580). In this sleep mode, all parts of the receiver (RF parts and baseband parts) can be turned off except those parts which are needed for waking up the receiver at the slot start (such as a low power counter). If the quality criteria are not met, the search window around each finger, the dwell time and the quality threshold are updated, and steps 550 to 570 are repeated. Obviously, all thresholds can be adaptive.
- FIG. 6 illustrations another embodiment of the invention, wherein the received signal power measurement 640, the threshold comparison 650, and the AGC 670, are performed concurrently in parallel to the search window of steps 620, 690 and 680.
