Title:
COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR FRAME RECONSTRUCTION AMONG SOFT HANDOFF LEGS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004021625
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention addresses the need for a device and method of frame reconstruction among soft handoff legs that improves the reliability of received information without reducing RF capacity. Given received frames from each leg of a soft handoff (300-303) a reconstructed frame (304) is produced. Subframes (e.g., 362) with passing inner frame quality indicators (352) are selected for the reconstructed frame. For portions of the reconstructed frame (e.g., 324 and 344) that do not have corresponding portions in the leg frames with passing inner frame quality indicators, a bit-wise majority rule is applied to select values.
