The present invention provides a method and apparatus reporting a channel quality indicator (CQI) of a communication system, including: detecting a first measurement reflecting a first communication quality of the communication system, providing first reference(s) respectively corresponding to indicator level(s), providing CQI according to the indicator level(s) and a relation between the first measurement and the first reference(s), and updating one (or more) first reference according to a second measurement reflecting a second communication quality of the communication system. For example, the first measurement can represent signal to interference ratio or mutual information, and the second measurement can represent data error rate or throughput. First reference(s) can be further adjusted according to a third measurement, e.g., a power scheduling of base station, such that CQI can be updated if base station schedules additional transmission power.

Method and apparatus reporting channel quality indicator of communication system

A decoding apparatus has an on-chip buffer, an external buffer interface, and a turbo decoder. The on-chip buffer is arranged for buffering each code block to be decoded. The external buffer interface is arranged for accessing an off-chip buffer. The turbo decoder is arranged for decoding a specific code block read from the on-chip buffer. The specific code block is not transmitted from the on-chip buffer to the off-chip buffer via the external buffer interface unless decoding fail of the specific code block is identified.

Decoding apparatus with adaptive control over external buffer interface and turbo decoder and related decoding method thereof

A communications apparatus. Multiple antennas are arranged to receive downlink signals and transmit uplink signals. A transceiver module is arranged to receive the downlink signals from the antennas and pass the uplink signals to an antenna selection device. The antenna selection device is coupled between the antennas and the transceiver module and arranged to receive the uplink signals to be transmitted from the transceiver module and dynamically pass the uplink signals to one of the antennas according to an antenna selection signal. A processor is arranged to receive the downlink signals from the transceiver module, calculate short-term signal qualities of the downlink signals and generate the antenna selection signal according to the short-term signal qualities.
