Definitions
- the invention relates to a digital signal processing and more particularly to a process for searching and/or selecting a channel o f frequency corresponding to a communication cell on which a mobile phone will synchronize.
- a non-limitative app lication o f the invention is directed to the wireless communication field, in particular the 2G, 3 G and 4G standards.
- the local oscillator frequency o f the mobile phone is controlled by fine frequency steps (for example 400 kHz) to scan the entire downlink band. After the scan, a test of synchronization is realized on every channels preselected.
- PLMN search is long and its precision can be improved.
- the frequency o f the local oscillator must be corrected to the exact frequency of the selected channel.
- a stage named HFO correction is dedicated to such a purpose. This process is similar to the previous one : in a first step the downlink band is scanned, a channel is selected and then a synchronization test is realized. This process is not exact, particularly when the correction needed exceeds a certain range (for example more than 20 kHz) . Its length and precision can also be improved.
- a method for identifying at least one communication channel in the received signal is based on storing the received signal, to avoid this loss o f autonomy.

- the other means 5 -8 comprise :
- -RS SI Receiveived Signal Strength Indication
- a set of UARFCN Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Abso lute Radio Frequency Channel Number
- the FIFO and IA Initial Acquisition
- the center frequency of the channels o f the downlink spectrum are called UARFCN. They are predefined as a list of frequencies with a pitch o f 200 kHz between two values. According to one implementation example, a pre-selection o f nine UARFCN candidates within the list can be made according to the proximity with the center frequency o f the selected channel.
- -HFO (High Frequency Offset) correction means 7. They enable to determine, on each candidate UARFCN, the difference with the frequency of lo cal oscillator of the mobile . For each UARFCN candidate, the frequency of the local oscillator is then adjusted accordingly and synchronization is attempted by the IA (Initial Acquisition) means 8.

- the main constraint on the correction o f the local oscillator is the accuracy o f RSSI . Because, as stated before, the HFO correction is sensitive to high frequency offset and if the RS SI is not accurate, the HFO cannot be realized. Moreover, with a more accurate RS SI, after the HFO correction the IA test will be successful with fewer tests on the pre-selected UARFCN candidates.

- a DFT, 402 is processed on the whole signal with a granularity o f 1024 points.
- the method used for these two steps can be, for examp le, similar to the precedently presented in steps 201 and 202 of the precedent embodiment.
- a non-coherent accumulation 403 of the PSD is processed.
- the non-coherent accumulation can be done for example on 40 PSD results.
- the non-coherent accumulation comprises a storing o f all the maximum level o f each frequency among the 40 PS D accumulated.
- the non-coherent accumulation enables to mitigate the fading and noise.
- the necessitating time expressed in number of slots can be simply calculated:

- the center frequency o f the channel 407.
- the center is either in the middle between the two boundaries (Fdown, Fup), either if one is not available 1 ,92 MHz distant from the other. In other words, to determine the center there are three possibilities : (Fdown+Fup)/2 if both are available
- each said center frequency is aligned with its closest center UARFCN.
- a set comprising channels each corresponding to one center UARFCN can be determined. For example, this set comprises six channels.
- a certain number, for example nine, pre-selected UARFCN candidates can be determined.
- the candidates can be, for example, pre-selected according to their distance to the center UARFCN o f the channel considered.
- the PLMN search is then continued from the IA test on the pre-selected UARFCN candidates for each o f the channels selected on the real time signal.
- the pre-selected candidates can be tested, for example, from the left part of the band (lower UARFCN) to the right part of the band (higher UARFCN) .
- the invention enables a faster process than the RS SI (700 ms).
- the DFT processing lasts approximately:
- the better resolution (3 ,75 kHz) of the invention enables a more accurate UARFCN selection than the RS SI, therefore in the remaining process fewer UARFCN will be tested.
