Abstract
The process determines the I channel and Q channel components for each received soft value. The location of each soft value with respect to the fade line is determined using the I and Q channel components. These locations are averaged over a power control group duration to determine the noise density. The symbol energy is determined by subtracting the average perpendicular distance from the soft value point to the fade line from half the square of the average of the distance from the soft value point to the origin.
