ABSTRACT:
A method determines the signal usability of an adjacent channel in a multi-cell communication system without the aid of synchronization symbols. In general, a three step search is used to arrive at the adjacent channel signal quality. The first step is a coarse timing phase search. This is accomplished through a signal quality estimates (606). The second step arrives at the optimum time phase by first interpolating (608) the received signal around the time phase selected in the first step to generate additional samples. After the interpolation (608), signal quality estimates are calculated (610) for the time phases immediately surrounding the time phase found in the first step. The optimum time phase corresponds to the maximum of these quality estimates. Finally, in the third step, the signal quality estimate is calculated for the optimum time phase. This provides the adjacent channel signal quality estimate desired.
