A DS-CDMA transmission method capable of improving the accuracy of channel estimation using pilot symbols by eliminating cross-correlation between pilot symbols inserted into code channels in CDMA multiplexing carrying out fast signal transmission. In each frame assembler the pilot symbols, which are used for channel estimation for coherent detection are inserted into coded information data on code channels at fixed intervals and then the data is modulated by the modulator. The modulated data symbols in each code channel from the modulator are spread by the spreading modulator the pilot symbols are spread using a spreading code whereas the information symbols are spread using different …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed May 28, 1997 and granted December 2, 2003. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 28, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 28, 2019.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
