Description

Use the wireless communication receiver of quick paging channel symbols
Technical field
The present invention relates to wireless communication system.Especially, the present invention relates to receiver, described receiver is used for quick paging channel is carried out demodulation in the communication system of using an above paging channel with the promotion processed offline.
Background technology
From search for and rescue the multiple demand application in the internet, applications scope, use wireless communication system.The communication system in reliable, the low-cost and little space of this application requirements, this system have long battery life and the radio telephone of relevant standby time.
Often provide feature such as the cellular telecommunication system of code division multiple access (CDMA) communication system by a plurality of mobile radio stations (as cell phone, mobile unit, radio telephone or mobile phone) of communicating by letter with one or more base station transceiver subsystems (BTS).BTS receives the signal that mobile radio station sends, and often is forwarded to the mobile switching centre (MSC) with base station controller (BSC).Then MSC is delivered to public switched telephone network (PSTN) or other radio telephone to signal.Similarly, can send to radio telephone to signal from PSTN by base station or BTS and MSC.
Wireless communication networks often uses the various channels such as paging channel and traffic channel to promote communication between radio telephone and the BTS, such as in the IS-95 cellular telephony standard announcement.BTS sends to the radio telephone that is associated to beep-page message with the indication incoming call through paging channel.In case radio telephone detects beep-page message, just between radio telephone and the BTS that is associated, send the service negotiation message sequence to set up traffic channel.Traffic channel is generally supported speech and data traffic.
Traditionally, radio telephone is constantly monitored the paging of indication incoming call on the paging channel.Wireless telephonic receiver keeps connecting, and the signal processing circuit in the radio telephone is carried out demodulation to paging channel simultaneously, whether sends paging to judge.Unfortunately, receiver draws too much power, and this has limited the telephone cells life-span widely.
In radio telephone and/or the network followed, often use the system of radio telephone power consumption minimum, to prolong telephone cells life-span, i.e. stand-by time.In order to improve stand-by time, some newer radio telephone is operated with slotted mode.In slotted mode, the predetermined paging time-slot according to setting up according to the IS-95 telecommunication standard periodically encourages wireless telephonic receiver.During paging time-slot, the BTS that is associated sends paging.By periodically receiver being powered up and to paging channel demodulation, rather than the whole paging channel of demodulation continuously before resembling, thereby the radio telephone stand-by time is prolonged.
Unfortunately, paging channel message often is long, and needs to prolong processing, and this has increased the power consumption of phone, and has reduced battery life and relevant stand-by time.In addition, the redundancy of the longer paging channel message of design needs of this system and the paging channel that is associated is handled and is detected incoming call.This has further reduced the telephone cells life-span.
By be known as processed offline to the IS-95 telecommunication standard quite new augment the further stand-by time that increases phone.In using the wireless communication networks of processed offline, a pair of quick paging channel (QPCH) code-element period send to radio telephone.Quick paging channel symbols (that is fast paging) expression exists or does not exist and will go up the incoming call of setting up at upcoming traffic channel (F-CCCH).The QPCH code element arrives in pairs with the speed of 9600 bits per seconds (bps) or 4800bps.Radio telephone is known to send the time slot of QPCH code element from the BTS that is associated, and it periodically switches on receiver at corresponding time slot place.
In the radio telephone that uses processed offline, make the radio receiver energising, to the QPCH sampling, turn-off receiver then immediately, and (when receiver turn-offs) processed offline QPCH sampling.The subsequent analysis of QPCH sampling or some samplings represents whether radio telephone should make the receiver energising and to paging channel demodulation, to receive the calling paging that is associated with incoming call.The use of QPCH helps to reduce the actuation duration of receiver and finishes the example of paging channel demodulation, makes the reduction of radio telephone power consumption and the telephone cells life-time dilatation that is associated becomes possibility.Unfortunately, be used for QPCH is carried out demodulation and judges the existing system whether handle follow-up whole paging channel and method is too big, expense is high, the power that overruns according to QPCH, and general efficient is not high.In addition, existing system often fails to use effectively the noise power of QPCH code element and received signal to estimate both, to judge whether handle upcoming whole paging channel effectively.
Therefore, needing effectively a kind of in the art and system and method cheaply, described system and method is used for receiving and handling quick paging channel symbols, whether handles upcoming whole paging channel to judge.Further a kind of efficient system of demand and method, described system and method uses noise power to estimate, and optionally use one or two code element of each quick paging channel time slot according to existing signal environment, to carry out the most effective by minimal hardware to the calling paging that exists and reliable detection.
