Problems solved by technology

A first drawback of the method disclosed in the above patent document is that link adaptation is performed without distinguishing between transparent and non-transparent transmission modes, both of which are available for the same modulation scheme, as far as the BLER threshold is concerned. Achieved
The second serious drawback is that the opportunities provided by a single modulation are not fully used, so that the combination with different coding schemes is lacking, since the linking is performed without changing the actual modulation but simply combining it with another coding scheme. When adapting, also force the use of a more troublesome higher modulation
The problem to be solved by link adaptation based on the comparison with the BLER threshold is how to get the actual threshold in the presence of IR for maximizing the data throughput
[0082] At the same time, the method of document WO 00 / 49760 apparently does not suggest any effective solution for the problem of how to compare the variability of the RF channel in the presence of incremental redundancy and link adaptation

Embodiment Construction

[0113] In the text, the arguments for Figures 1, 2, 3a, 3b, and 4, and Tables 1, 2, 3, and 4 of Appendix 1 have been adequately discussed.

[0114] Figure 5 A block diagram of a mobile station MS / UE is shown, which is adapted to implement the invention together with the BSS subsystem of FIG. 1 . The mobile station MS / UE comprises a transmitting part and a receiving part, both of which are controlled by a control processor which also controls a frequency synthesizer and a frequency hopping unit which are common to both parts. The duplex filter passes the RF output signal of the transmit section to the antenna, and passes the RF signal received at the antenna to the input of the receive section. For brevity, in Figure 5 The oscillator and TDMA timing generator are not shown. The transmit section includes the following functional blocks: input device, speech coder, channel coder, interleaver, encryption, burst format converter (formatter), GMSK / 8-PSK modulator, BB / IF / RF upco...

Abstract

Method to perform link adaptation at the radio interfaces of an enhanced packet data cellular network handling several Modulation and Coding Schemes (MCS) for maximizing data throughput. In a preliminary off-line step the system behaviour, in terms of net throughput of the various available MCSs, is simulated for different C / l conditions. From the simulation two sets of tables are obtained, each table including upgrade and downgrade thresholds expressed in terms of Block Error Rate (BLER). Thresholds correspond to switching points from an MCs to the two available MCSs having the immediate less or more protection. The two sets of tables are referred to higher or lower diversity RF environments and are further specialized for taking into account EGPRS type II hybrid ARQ, namely Incremental Redundancy (IR). During transmission the transmitted blocks are checked for FEC and the results are sent to the network. The network continuously updates BLER using exponential smoothing. In order to achieve the correct time response, in spite of that RLC blocks can be received or not, a reliability filter is provided whose output is used to decide the weight between the new and old measurements to make the BLER filter impulse response exponentially decreasing with time. The IR efficiency is tested for each incoming block and an indicative variable IR status is filtered using the same approach used for BLER. Each actual threshold of BLER to be used in link adaptation is obtained by a linear interpolation between the tabulated threshold without IR and with perfect IR, both weighed with filtered IR status. Filtered BLER is then compared with said interpolated thresholds for testing the incoming of a MCS switching condition. Power control pursues the goal of maintaining constant QoS peak throughput per time slot(Fig 16).
