Abstract
A method, telecommunication apparatus, and electronic device for detecting a status of a radio link are disclosed. A transceiver 302 may maintain a radio link with a network base station 104. A processor 304 may map channel state information to a synchronization status associated with the radio link based on the received signal and determine the synchronization status via a block error rate estimate in the radio link based on the channel state information.
Claims27
A method for detecting a status of a radio link, comprising:
- receiving a reference signal transmitted from a base station;
- monitoring a synchronization status associated with the radio link;
- assuming a transmission of a codeword of a first payload type from the base station;
- estimating a block error rate applicable to the assumed codeword of the first payload type based on the reference signal;
- and
- determining the synchronization status from the estimated block error rate.
A telecommunications apparatus for detecting a status of a radio link, comprising:
- a transceiver that receives a reference signal transmitted from a base station;
- and
- a processor that monitors a synchronization status associated with the radio link, assumes a transmission of a codeword of a first payload type from the base station, estimates a block error rate applicable to the assumed codeword of the first payload type based on the reference signal and determines the synchronization status from the estimated block error rate.
