US Patent 7693099 Methods of wireless communication

In a method of wireless communication, signaling information in a received signal may be detected using a detection parameter. The detection parameter may be determined based on at least one of a probability of false alarm and a target probability of false alarm. Another method may detect signaling information using an estimated transmission probability value for a subsequent time instant that is determined based on an estimated transmission probability value for a current time instant. The detection parameter may also be determined from the estimated probability of transmission values.
