- a cellular telephone system configured substantially in accordance with the use of IS-95 is described in US patent 5,103,459 entitled "System and Method for Generating Signal Waveforms in a CDMA Cellular Telephone System" assigned to the assignee of the present invention and incorporated herein by reference.
- CDMA signal processing allows a set of user signals to be transmitted over the same radio frequency (RF) band by modulation of the user signals with a set of pseudorandom noise codes (PN codes) before up conversion to an RF frequency band.
- PN codes pseudorandom noise codes
- the PN codes are used to modulate and demodulate the user signals during transmission and reception processing respectively.
- the primary benefit of using CDMA signal processing is that adjacent base stations can use the same RF bandwidth to conduct communications, which increases the frequency reuse factor, and therefore the efficiency, with which the cellular telephone system uses the available RF bandwidth.
- Multipath signal processing is the individual processing of different copies of the same transmitted signal that are created by reflection and other multipath phenomenon.
- the various copies of the transmitted signal are processed by a set of demodulators, each synchronized with the state of the PN codes for that signal.
- the other unsynchronized multipath signal are detected as background noise or interference.
- the resulting "soft decision" data is typically combined into a single data set, and the single data set decoded.
- the present invention is a novel and improved method and apparatus for utilizing the polarization of signals to facilitate the transmission and reception of signals processed using code division multiple access (CDMA) signals.
- CDMA code division multiple access
- right slant and left slant version of the signal are transmitted using separate antennas to increase the likelihood of differently polarized versions of the signal being available at the receive system, and to reduce cross interference. Additionally, a delay is introduced into one transmission to provide additional diversity.
- the receive system is comprised of a single polarized antenna and a diversity receiver that selects the best instances of the signal received, which typically depends on the polarization of those signals and the orientation of the antenna.

- the present invention is a novel and improved method and apparatus for utilizing the polarization of signals to facilitate the transmission and reception of signals processed using code division multiple access (CDMA) signals.
- CDMA code division multiple access
- the invention is set forth in the context of a CDMA cellular telephone system operating in accordance with the IS-95 standard. While the invention is especially suited for operation with a cellular telephone system operating in accordance with the IS-95 standard, other wireless communication systems including satellite based systems or point-to-point communication system may incorporate the use of the present invention, as may wireline systems that incorporate the use of sinusoidal signals and a rake receiver such as in coaxial cable based communication systems.
- FIG. 2 is a highly simplified block diagram of a portion of cellular telephone system configured in accordance with one embodiment of the invention.
- Base stations 22 and 22a are coupled to base station controller 24, which is in turn coupled to the public switch telephone network (PSTN).
- PSTN is the conventional wireline telephone network.
- base station 22 is transmitting an RF signal to a subscriber unit 20 in order to conduct communications.
- subscriber unit 20 transmits an RF signal to base station 22, however, this transmission is not shown to simplify discussion of the invention.
- base station 22 generates two orthogonaly polarized forward link signals referred to as right slant signal 60 and left slant signal 62 transmitted from antenna systems 54a and 54b.
- these signals are generated by two separate RF subsystems 52a and 52b which are part of base station 22 in response to digital signals received from digital processing system (DPS) 53.
- DPS 53 receives data to be transmitted from BSC 44.
- Delay 50 is coupled to RF subsystem 52a.
- Delay 50 introduces a delay into the outbound left slant signal 62 in order to provide time diversity.
- the duration of the delay is at least as long as the duration of one bit, or "chip,” from the PN codes used for modulation and demodulation, and preferably equal to the duration of 2-3 chips.
- DPS 53 the introduction of delay in by DPS 53.
- radio frequency signals can posses various type of orthogonal polarizations including left slant and right slant polarizations which are oriented at 45 degrees of vertical. Additionally, various other types of polarization are known including horizontal and vertical linear polarizations, or right hand circular (RHC) and left hand circular (LHC) polarizations the use of which is also consistent with the use of the present invention.
- RHC right hand circular
- LHC left hand circular
- right slant signal 60 and left slant signal 62 are transmitted with different directional orientations.
- antenna 54a may be pointed in a slightly different direction than antenna 54b.
- the difference in the directional orientations should be slight, so that the two signals are received at the same location while experiencing different multipath conditions. This enhances the diversity of signal source.
- the orientations can altered more substantially.
- subsystems 52a and 52b along with antennas 54a and 54b can be placed in a different locations. This would have the effect of creating different cells having differing polarizations. As subscriber unit 20 moved from one cell to the next the polarization of the signal received would change.
- the antennas may also have the same directional orientation.
- right slant signal 60 is reflected by tree 61 generating multipath signal 60a and left slant signal 62 is reflected by building 63 generating multipath signal 62a.
- reflection can modify an already polarized signal, or add polarization to a non-polarized signal.
- Subscriber unit 20 receive signals 60, 60a, 62 and 62a and performs receive demodulation to extract the data transmitted.
- FIG. 3 is a block diagram of the receive processing portion of subscriber unit 20 when configured in accordance with one embodiment of the invention.
- .Antenna system 70 is coupled to RF receiver 74, which is in turn coupled to demodulators 80a - c and to searcher and controller 78.
- Demodulators 80a - c are also coupled to searcher and controller 78, as well as to combiner 82. While three demodulators 80 are shown, the use of other numbers of demodulators including four or more is consistent with the use of the present invention.
- antenna system 70 receives the left slant and right slant RF signal from base station 22.
- the RF receiver filters, down converts digitizes those signals generating samples 86.
- Searcher and control system 9780 receives samples 86 and performs repeated time offset searches using the PN codes used to modulate the signals to determine the arrival times of the signals 60, 60a, 62 and 62a of FIG 2. Once the arrival times of signals 60, 60a, 62 and 62a are determined, searcher and control system 7890 configures demodulators 80a - c to process a signal 60, 60a, 62 and 62a within either right slant samples 86 or left slant samples 88 at the associated arrival time using control interface 92.
- demodulators 80a - c demodulate the samples using a PN spreading code and a Walsh channel code configured and generated in accordance with the IS-95 standard and the associated arrival time (offset).
- demodulators 80a - c perform time tracking to adjust for changes in the arrival time.
- the demodulation performed by demodulators 80a - c generates soft decision data received by combiner 82.
- Combiner 82 combines the soft decision data 94a - c yielding summed soft decision data which is received by a decoder (not shown).
- the decoder performs soft decision decoding to generate hard decision data 99 which is then made available for further processing such as data manipulation or regeneration of audio tones.
- Various types of decoding are known and may be incorporated into the present invention including trellis or Viterbi decoding.
- FIG. 45 is a block diagram of the receive processing portion of subscriber unit 20 when configured in accordance with another embodiment of the invention.
- Right slant antenna system 270 and left slant antenna system 272 received RF signals that are provided to RF receivers 274 and 276.

- Demodulators 280a - c are coupled to searcher and controller 278 and to combiner 282. While three demodulators 280 are shown, the use of other numbers of demodulators including four or more is consistent with the use of the present invention. While referred to as right slant and left slant antenna systems 270 and 272, the typical mobility of the subscriber unit will alter the absolute polarity of the antenna systems, but not the relative polarity.
- right slant antenna system 270 receives signals with a right slant polarity and left slant antenna system 272 and receiver 274 frequency filters, down converts and digitizes those signals generating right slant samples 286.
- left slant antenna system 272 performs polarized filtration of the RF signals, and receiver 276 frequency filters, down converts and digitizes those signals generating left slant samples 288.
- Various method and antenna for performing polarized reception are well known in the art.
- right slant samples 286 contain only those signals that having a right slant component, and therefore the interference due to orthogonally polarized signals is removed.
- left slant samples 288 contain only those signals having a left slant component, and therefore the interference from other orthogonally polarized signals is removed.
- Searcher 290 receives right slant samples 286 and left slant samples 288 and performs repeated time offset searches using the PN codes use to modulate the signals to determine the arrival times of the signals 60, 60a, 62 and 62a of FIG 2. Once the arrival times of signals 60, 60a, 62 and 62a are determined, searcher 290 configures demodulators 280a - c to process a signal 60, 60a, 62 and 62a within either right slant samples 286 or left slant samples 88 at the associated arrival time using control interface 292.
- demodulators 280a - c demodulate the samples using a PN spreading code and a Walsh channel code configured and generated in accordance with the IS-95 standard and the associated arrival time (offset). Additionally, demodulators 280a - c perform time tracking to adjust for changes in the arrival time.
- the demodulation performed by demodulators 280a - c generates soft decision data received by combiner 282.
- Combiner 282 combines the soft decision data yielding summed soft decision data which is received by a decoder (not shown).
- the decoder perform soft decision decoding to generate hard decision data which is then made available for further processing such as data manipulation or regeneration of audio tones.
- Various types of decoding are known and may be incorporated into the present invention including trellis or Viterbi decoding. By using differently polarized RF antennas the various signals received can be isolated from one another before demodulation and therefore the degree to which they interfere with one another is reduced. Additionally, by using two antenna with different polarizations the best available signal can be received, identified and processed independently, thus enhancing the average signal quality.
- FIG. 2 is a highly simplified block diagram of a portion of cellular telephone system configured in accordance with another embodiment of the invention.
- Base stations 22 are coupled to base station controller 24, which is in turn coupled to the public switch telephone network (PSTN).

These signals are generated by two separate antennas which are part of subscriber unit 20 in response to digital signals received from digital unit 365. The data is received from some external source such a digitized voice.
- Delay 350 is coupled to RF unit 352b.
- Delay 350 introduces a delay into the outbound left slant signal 362 in order to provide time diversity.
- the duration of the delay is at least as long as the duration of one bit, or "chip,” from the PN codes used for modulation and demodulation, and preferably equal to the duration of 2-3 chips.
- right slant signal 360a and left slant signal 360b are transmitted with different directional orientations.
- antenna 364 may be pointed in a slightly different direction than antenna 362.
- the difference in the directional orientations should be slight, so that the two signals are received at the same location while experiencing different multipath conditions. This enhances the diversity of signal source.
- right slant signal 364 is reflected by tree 61 generating multipath signal 362a and left slant signal 362 is reflected by building 63 generating multipath signal 362b.
- reflection can modify an already polarized signal, or add polarization to a non-polarized signal.
- Base station 22 receive signals 360, 360a, 362 and 362a and performs receive demodulation to extract the data transmitted.
- base station 22 receives signals 360, 360a, 362 and 362a via an antenna system with a particular polarization which filters some of the resulting multipath.

- CSM cell site modem
- searcher and controller 178 receives the digitized signals and identifies multipath instances of the signal being processed by applying the associated spreading codes at various time offsets. Additionally, searcher and controller examines the input from antenna 170 and antenna 172 separately and determines which is producing the best result for a particular finger. Once multipath signals are identified, searcher and controller 178 assigned a demodulator 180 to process that multipath signal from the particular antenna determined to provide the best result. The resulting soft decision data from demodulators 180a - c are combined by combiner 182 and passed to a trellis or Viterbi decoder and then on to the BSC.
- the present invention enhances the receive processing of the multipath signals at the receive systemreceived from a particular subscriber unit 20.
- reflection and other phenomenon that cause multipath transmission often alter polarization of the signal, including the introduction of non-uniform polarization.
- differently polarized multipath instances of the signals are filtered from one another, and therefore do not interfere with one another.
- the introduction of delay further prevents interference by decreasing the likelihood that the signals will combined destructively and therefore cause a fade condition.
- the present invention is a novel and improved method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving code division multiple access (CDMA) signals.
- CDMA code division multiple access
