Abstract

A mobile receiver having a multi-mode interference suppression function and a way to estimate its speed utilizes a parametric approach to interference suppression at high speeds, and a nonparametric approach at low speeds. In particular, if the mobile receiver is currently operating in a nonparametric mode and its speed exceeds a first predetermined threshold, the mobile receiver switches to a parametric mode. Conversely, if the mobile receiver is currently in parametric mode and its speed is less than a second predetermined threshold, the mobile receiver switches to nonparametric mode. In one embodiment, the speed may be estimated by a Doppler frequency in the received signal, and the thresholds are Doppler frequencies. In one embodiment, the first and second thresholds are different, creating a hysteresis in the mode switching.
