CDMA receiving device and SFN detecting method used for the same
View Patent ↗A CDMA receiving device is provided which can prevent erroneous determination of an SFN detection. The CDMA receiving device ( 1 ) performs detection of a slot boundary in a slot timing detection unit ( 14 ), and performs detection of frame timing and code group in a code group identification unit ( 15 ), with regard to each slot timing detected in this way. The CDMA receiving device ( 1 ) uses a P-CPICH to detect scrambling code in a scrambling code identification unit ( 16 ) from the detected frame timing and code group. The CDMA receiving device ( 1 ) performs detection of SFN in a broadcast channel decoding unit ( 17 ) from the frame timing and the scrambling code. A P-CCPCH is used in the detection of the SFN. The SFN is included in the P-CCPCH and it is possible to detect SFN timing of a base station by decoding a BCH.
1. A CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) receiving device which performs a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) determination of a decoding result of a BCH (Broadcast Channel) in which broadcast information is mapped, when SFN (System Frame Number) timing of a cell, which is detected in a cell search, is detected, characterized in that the device comprises: measuring means for measuring an electrical power value of a P-CCPCH (Primary Common Control Physical Channel) in which said BCH is mapped, and
detection means for detecting the SFN from the CRC determination result and a determination result of comparing a measurement result of said measuring means and a predetermined threshold,
wherein:
in order to detect a TTI (Transmission Time Interval) boundary when decoding said BCH, a decoding process is performed from a P-CCPCH of 2 frames, for each frame, said CRC determination is performed, and electrical power of said P-CCPCH of said 2 frames is measured
a synchronization determination of said TTI from continuity of said SFN in said decoding result of said BCH is performed; and
a determination of continuity of said SFN is performed in cases in which the electrical power value of said P-CCPCH does not satisfy said threshold value.

a detection process which detects said SFN from said CRC determination result and a determination result of comparing a measurement result of said measuring process and a predetermined threshold,
wherein:
in order to detect a TTI (Transmission Time Interval) boundary when decoding said BCH, a decoding process is performed from a P-CCPCH of 2 frames, for each frame, said CRC determination is performed, and electrical power of said P-CCPCH of said 2 frames is measured;
a synchronization determination of said TTI from continuity of said SFN in said decoding result of said BCH is performed; and
a determination of continuity of said SFN is performed in cases in which the electrical power value of said P-CCPCH does not satisfy said threshold value.
