First Claim
Patent Images
1. A code division multiple access (CDMA) transmitter, the CDMA transmitter comprising:
- a forward error correction (FEC) coder configured to receive a source signal, which corresponds to a subframe and includes an appended cyclic redundancy check code (CRC), and to produce an enhanced source signal including data coded with error correction information;
a demultiplexer configured to demultiplex the enhanced source signal;
a plurality of modem processors configured to process respective portions of the enhanced source signal in a plurality of independent channels;
an adder configured to produce an aggregate signal, which is a summation of the enhanced signal processed in the plurality of independent channels; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the aggregate signal.

Abstract
A transmitter/receiver system for high data transfer in a wireless communication system includes a physical layer processor that comprises an FEC coder, a demultiplexer and a plurality of modem processors. The FEC coder applies error correction codes to the high data rate signal. Thereafter, the demultiplexer distributes portions of the coded high data rate signal to the modem processors. Each modem processor processes its respective portion of the coded signal for transmission in an independent channel.

5. A code division multiple access (CDMA) receiver, the CDMA receiver comprising:
-
a receiver configured to receive a wireless signal from a transmitter, the wireless signal being formed at the transmitter by a summation of portions of a coded signal that were processed in independent channels but were wirelessly transmitted as a single aggregate signal, wherein the wireless signal corresponds to a subframe and includes an appended cyclic redundancy check code (CRC); a plurality of demodulators configured to demodulate an output of the receiver; and a forward error correction (FEC) decoder to recover a single unitary information signal. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
