Abstract
As described a spreading code for a desired bit rate/band width comprises the bits of a row of a Hadamard or Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor code matrix of the appropriate order. This is generated by masking (in bitwise AND fashion) the output of a counter (stepped for each bit) with a binary code identifying the row (with bit reversal of the count or code for OVSF code generation), and determining the parity (mod 2) of masked count for each bit. The counter is arranged to cycle at count equal to a maximum code length and the degree of overlap or alignment between the count and the mask is set to a required code length/matrix order to (repeatedly) generate the code bits corresponding to a row of the matrix.
Description
<Desc/Clms Page number 1>
CODE GENERATION The invention relates to the generation of spreading codes and to the use of spreading codes in communications techniques. In particular, the invention concerns Hadamard codes and Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor (OVSF) codes.
In a conventional FDMA (frequency division multiple access) scheme, different channels are transmitted on different frequency bands. In a TDMA (time division multiple access) scheme, different channels are transmitted in different timeslots in an agreed timeslot pattern.
A central part of any CDMA (code division multiple access) system is the use of spreading codes. In such a system, a continuous transmission on a single frequency contains multiple concurrent channels. Each symbol in each channel is modulated with a high speed 'spreading code'. The mathematical properties of these codes are such that it is possible to transmit many different symbol streams (or channels) with different spreading codes simultaneously in the same radio frequency band and still be able to successfully receive and separate these channels if the spreading code is known.
In IS-95 (currently the most widely used commercial CDMA system), these codes are known as Walsh Codes. Walsh Codes are all the same length (64 elements), and so are 'fixed spreading factor codes'.
In UMTS, the type of code used is slightly different-these are of variable length, and have very desirable properties in that careful allocation of these codes allows a system to transmit multiple channels of different speeds on the same frequency band without co-interference. Specifically, any length of a power of 2 is supported as a valid length.
These codes are called Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor (OVSF) codes.
<Desc/Clms Page number 2>
The definition of these OVSF codes is given in the UMTS specification and is repeated below for information. This definition can easily be implemented in software, but requires significant amounts of memory and processing power to run, as it involves possibly large (up to 512x512 element) matrix calculations.
OVSF code Cn, x may be described as the xth (where x is numbered from 0) row of the OVSF matrix Cn. Cn is described recursively below:
(Note that C2, C4, and Czars shown for information. Technically, only the definition for C) is required along with the recursive definition of C2/1+1).
<Desc/Clms Page number 3>
For a given OVSF matrix, a spreading code bit can be specified by a pair of co-ordinates, one identifying the code which provides the bit (i. e. x) and the other identifying the position of the specified bit within its code.
The algorithm above requires that, for any given code Cn, x, the whole matrix Cn is
generated, and- then the Xth row is taken from this matrix to provide the code. This implies that C1 to Cn-l need to be generated along the way.
For example, to generate Cl, l, one starts with the matrix Cl. From that, one generates C2, then C4, Cs, C16, C32, C64, Cm, C256 and finally Cl. The desired code (#5) 2,)) is the 2nd row of this matrix (the rows are numbered from 0 to n-1). As can be seen, this is a computationally intensive operation. In addition, a large amount of memory is required to store all the intermediate matrices required to get to the desired OVSF code.
Once generated, any OVSF codes required are passed to a hardware block where they are stored and used to provide the real spreading signals used to generate the full rate sequence to be transmitted on the air.
In UMTS, a synchronisation channel is broadcast by a base station in order to provide timing, frequency and identification information for a mobile station (MS) to easily detect and decode. It consists of two separate channels, code multiplexed together. The primary synchronisation channel (PSCH) is used to provide slot timing and phase information for automatic frequency correction. The secondary synchronisation channel (SSCH) is orthogonal to (i. e. it does not interfere with) the PSCH and gives frame timing and cell identification information.
Hadamard codes are used in the SSCH to provide this cell identification information. The definition of these codes is given in the UMTS specifications, and is repeated below for information. This definition can easily be implemented in software, but requires significant
<Desc/Clms Page number 4>
amounts of memory and processing power to run, as it involves possibly large (up to 256x256 element) matrix calculations.
Hadamard code Hn, x may be described as the xth row (where x is numbered from 0) of the Hadamard matrix Hn. Hn is described recursively below:
(Note that H ;, Hz, and H3 are shown for information. Technically, only the definition for Ho is required along with the recursive definition ofHn+I') For a given Hadamard matrix, a spreading code bit can be specified by a pair of co-ordinates, one identifying the code which provides the bit (i. e. x) and the other identifying the position of the specified bit within its code.
The algorithm above requires that, for any given code Hn, x, the whole matrix Hn is
generated, and then the xi row is taken from this matrix to provide the code. This implies that H to Han l need to be generated along the way.
<Desc/Clms Page number 5>
For example, to generate H, one starts with the matrix Ho From that, one generates HI,
then H2, H3, Ho, Hs, H6, H7 and finally Hs The desired code (Hs, 2) is the 3rd row of this matrix (the rows are numbered from 0 to n-1).
As can be seen, this is a computationally intensive operation. In addition, a large amount of memory is required to store all the intermediate matrices required to get to the desired Hadamard code.
Once generated, any Hadamard codes required are passed to a hardware block where they are stored and used to provide the real spreading signals used to generate the full rate sequence to be transmitted on the air, or against which an input sequence should be correlated.
The invention seeks to provide an improved technique for spreading code bit generation, for codes such as Hadamard codes and OVSF codes.
According to one aspect, the invention provides apparatus for spreading code bit generation, comprising masking means for masking a first co-ordinate word with a second co-ordinate word, the first and second co-ordinate words specifying a bit of a spreading code, and parity generating means for determining the parity of the masked first co-ordinate word to obtain the specified bit.
The invention also consists in a method of spreading code bit generation, comprising providing two co-ordinate words specifying a bit of a spreading code, masking a first one of the co-ordinate words with the second and determining the parity of the masked first co-ordinate word to obtain the specified bit.
By generating spreading code bits in this fashion, it is not necessary to perform the intermediate step of generating one or more spreading code matrices from which the spreading code bits are taken. This may provide savings in terms of memory space, processing time and power consumption.
<Desc/Clms Page number 6>
The invention may be used to selectively generate various spreading code bits. For example, the second co-ordinate word which acts as a mask may be adjustable to control, i. e. select, which spreading code provides the specified bit. The second co-ordinate word may identify the position of the spreading code containing the specified bit within the matrix which contains the spreading code.
The first co-ordinate word may be adjustable to control which bit of the spreading code is provided by the parity determination. Furthermore, the first co-ordinate value may be a counter value which can be advanced to cause successive parity determinations to issue the spreading code.
In one embodiment, the first and second co-ordinate words have the same bit-significance convention so that the spreading code is a Hadamard code. M successive parity values can be designated to form the spreading code so that the spreading code is a Hadamard code from Hadamard matrix Hm. Preferably, m can be adjusted to select the Hadamard code issued by the parity determinations.
In another embodiment, the first and second co-ordinate values have opposing bit significance conventions so that the spreading code is an OVSF code. The opposing bit significance conventions may be achieved by bit reversing the first co-ordinate word or the second co-ordinate word or by generating the first co-ordinate word using a reverse carry adder. The masking process may involve aligning the first and second co-ordinate words so that the n least significant bits of the second co-ordinate word are applied to the n least significant bits of the first co-ordinate word so that the spreading code is an OVSF code from OVSF matrix C2". Preferably, n is adjustable to select the OVSF code to which the output of the parity generator belongs.
The invention also extends to methods and apparatus for manipulating a signal, involving at least one of spreading and despreading the signal with spreading code bits generated by a method or apparatus according to the invention.
<Desc/Clms Page number 7>
The invention can also be implemented as a computer program which, if necessary, can be provided on a data carrier.
By way of example only, some embodiments of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying figures, in which: Figure 1 is a block diagram of a Hadamard code generator ; and Figures 2 to 4 each show a block diagram of a OVSF code generator.
Figure 1 shows a block diagram of a code generator 10 for generation of a Hadamard code Hn, x- The code generator 10 comprises a binary counter 12 and a mask register 14, both of which provide inputs to a masking unit 16. The output of the masking unit 16 is supplied to a parity generator 18. For each increment of the counter 12, the parity generator 18 outputs one Hadamard code bit. The counter 12 wraps back to the start of the code automatically.
To generate Hadamard code Hn, x, the mask register 14 is loaded with the value x and the masking unit 16 performs a bitwise AND operation on the output of the counter 12 and the value x from register 14. Thus, for each value of the counter 12, the parity generator 18 receives a word from the masking unit 16. For each word that it receives, the parity generator 18 outputs a single bit which indicates the parity of the word received from the masking unit 16. Over each group of 2n successive cycles, the parity bits spell out Hn, x. If the longest Hadamard codes required belong to Hadamard matrix Hp, then the counter 12 must be capable of counting through at least 2P values before wrapping, i. e. the counter 14 must have at least p bits. Typically, the counter runs continuously and generates the bits of the Hadamard code at the rate required to provide a constant stream of data to the modulation or demodulation system of a CDMA transceiver.
For example, let us say we are trying to generate H3, 3. From the Hadamard matrices above, we know that this sequence is 0, 1, 1, 0,0, 1, 1, 0. The table below shows how the various blocks in the generator 10 behave for the first few steps of the counter for n=3, x=3.

Figure 2 shows a block diagram of a code generator 20 for generation of an OVSF code Cn, x The code generator 20 comprises a binary counter 22 and a mask register 24, both of which provide inputs to a masking unit 26. The output of the masking unit 26 is supplied to a parity generator 28. For each increment of the counter 22, the parity generator 28 outputs one OVSF code bit.
To generate OVSF code Cn, x, the mask register 24 is loaded with x written in the opposite endianism (bit significance convention) to the counter value. With respect to the endianism of the counter, register 24 is effectively loaded with a bit reversed version of x.
For example, the decimal number 3 is the 4 bit binary number 0011 in the bit significance convention where the rightmost bit is the least significant bit and the leftmost bit is the most significant bit, whereas decimal 3 is 1100 in the opposite bit significance convention.
The masking unit 26 receives the value x from the mask register 24 and the counter value from counter 22. It will be recalled that these values have opposite bit significance conventions and the masking unit 26 needs to align these values before performing the masking operation. The masking unit 26 aligns these values so that their log2 (n) (always an
<Desc/Clms Page number 9>
integer value because n is always a power of 2) least significant bits overlap. The masking is then performed by doing a bitwise AND on the aligned values. The following exampleillustrates the operation of the masking unit where Cg. 5 is being generated and the counter value is presently-7.
In the convention where the leftmost bit is the least significant, 7 as a 4 bit word is 1110. In the convention where the rightmost bit is the least significant, 5 as a 4 bit word is 0101. The masking unit 26 aligns the 3 least significant bits of these words (since n=8=23) as follows :
1 1 1 0 0 1 0 1
Performing the bitwise AND operation on the aligned values yields the word 101.
Thus, for each value of the counter 22, the parity generator 28 receives a word from the masking unit 26. For each word that it receives, the parity generator 28 outputs a single bit which indicates the parity of the word received from the masking unit 26. It will be seen that, over each group of n successive cycles, the parity bits spell out Cn, x. If the longest OVSF code required belongs to matrix Cq, then the counter must be capable of counting through at least q values, i. e. the counter must have at least log2 (q) bits. Typically, the counter runs continuously and generates the bits of the OVSF code at the rate required to provide a constant stream of data to the modulation or demodulation system of a CDMA transceiver.
For example, let us say we are trying to generate ci 3. From the OVSF matrices above, we know that this sequence is 0,0, 1,1, 1,1, 0, 0. The table below shows how the various blocks in the generator 20 behave for the first few steps of the counter. Note that for C83, n=8, x=3, and log2 (n) =3.

Figure 3 shows a block diagram of a modified OVSF code generator 30. The generator 30 is similar to generator 20 in that it also comprises a mask register 24, a masking unit 26 and a parity generator 28. However, in Figure 3, the counter 22 of Figure 2 has been replaced by a reverse carry adder 32 and a further register 34. In this embodiment, the mask register 24 contains the binary version of x written such that its rightmost bit is the least significant and the reverse carry adder 32 and register 34 are used to create what is essentially a counter having the opposite bit significance convention. Register 34 is loaded with a binary version of decimal 1 written in the opposite endianism to x. For example, where n is 64, register 34 is loaded with the value 100000.
The reverse carry adder is a common hardware block often used in implementations of fast Fourier transforms (FFTs). It operates in the same way as a normal binary adder, except that the carry bit of the add moves in the opposite way to a conventional adder. The table below gives some examples.

XYX+Y (reverse carry) 1000 1000 0100 1000 1100 0010 0001 0001 0000 In generator 30, the inputs to the reverse carry adder are its output (which is fed back) and the content of register 34.
The outputs of the reverse carry adder 32 and the mask register 24 are used by the masking unit 26 and the parity generator 28 to produce the OVSF code Cn, x in the same manner as in generator 20. It will be seen that, over each group of n successive cycles, the parity bits spell out Cn. x. If the longest OVSF code required belongs to matrix Cq, then the adder must be capable of counting through at least q values, i. e. the adder must be capable of outputting a result at least log2 (q) bits long.
For example, let us say we are trying to generate C8, 3, which is (0,0, 1,1, 1,1, 0,0). The table below shows how the various blocks in the generator 30 behave for the first few steps of the counter for C83 where n=8, x=3, and log2 (n) =3.

The output of the parity generator 28 is Ce, 3.
Figure 4 shows a block diagram of another OVSF code generator 40. The generator 40 is similar to generators 20 and 30 in that it also comprises a mask register 24, a masking unit 26 and a parity generator 28. The code generator 40 also comprises a counter 44, whose output has the same bit significance convention as the value in the mask register.
However, a bit reverser operates on the output of the counter 44 to give the counter value the opposite bit significance convention to that of the mask register. The output of the bit reverser is used to provide an input to the masking unit 26. The following table illustrates the operation of the counter 44 and the bit reverser 42 for 4 bit words.
Counter 44 Output of Bit Reverser 42 0000 0000 OOOi 1000 0010 0100 0011 1100 0100 0010 0101 1010 0110 0110 0111 1110 1000 0001 1001 1001 1010 0101 1011 1101 1100 0011 It will be apparent from the table above, the output from bit reverser 32 is the same as the output of the reverse carry adder 32 in Figure 3. Given that the mask register 24, masking unit 26 and parity generator 28 in Figure 4 operate analogously to their counterparts in code generator 30, it will be readily understood by the skilled person how the generator 40 produces OVSF codes.
