Abstract
There is provided a processor for a base station control unit, the base station control unit being associated with a plurality of antennas; the processor comprising a plurality of processing streams, each stream being suitable for generating signals for at least one user in a plurality of users; wherein any of the processing streams can be used to generate the signals for any user in the plurality of users and for transmission by any antenna in the plurality of antennas.
Claims19
A system for generating variable-length spreading code, the system comprising:
- a code memory for storing a code block, the code block comprising a first set of codes;
- and
- a processing unit for retrieving the code block from the code memory, and for forming a second set of codes by generating a first grid comprising an inverted copy of the code block in a corner of the first grid.
A system for generating variable-length spreading codes, the system comprising:
- a code memory for storing a code block, the code block comprising a first set of codes having a corresponding first length;
- and
- a processing unit for retrieving the code block from the code memory, and for forming a second set of codes, having a corresponding second length, based on an inverted copy of the code block, wherein the second set of codes is formed by generating a grid with the inverted copy of the code block located in a corner of the grid.
A method for generating variable-length spreading code, the method comprising:
- storing a code block, the code block comprising a first set of codes, using a first code memory;
- and
- retrieving the code block from the code memory, and for forming a second set of codes by generating a first grid comprising an inverted copy of the code block in a corner of the first grid.
