Abstract

An HSDPA coprocessor for 3G mobile terminals performs all layer 1 baseband chip rate, symbol rate, physical channel and transport channel processing required to receive 3GPP Release 6 HSDPA at data rates up to 7.2 Mb/s. The design is scalable to all HSDPA data rates up to 14 Mb/s. An advanced receiver using NLMS adaptive equalisers and receive diversity provides the coprocessor with up to 6.4 dB better performance than a traditional single antenna RAKE receiver
