    摘要: A receiver, or base station, may calculate the signal quality improvement based on a change in a diversity control parameter, for example, a phase difference or a power ratio among two or more antennas, by comparing a received signal power level to an expected power level, assuming no change in fading characteristics at the previous timeslot. This method may increase the amount of information communicated between the base station and the mobile unit, and may reduce feedback response time and/or provide for more efficient feedback for transmit diversity systems.

    摘要: Modifying a signal includes facilitating transmission of the signal from a modifying communication device to a feedback communication device. Power indicators reflecting the power of the signal as received by the feedback communication device are received. Previous power indicators reflect the power of the signal adjusted according to a previous modification, and current power indicators reflect the power of the signal adjusted according to a current modification. A previous power descriptor value is estimated from the previous power indicators, and a current power descriptor value is estimated from the current power indicators. A modification increment is determined in accordance with the previous power descriptor value and the current power descriptor value. A next modification is calculated from the current modification and the modification increment, and a phase and an amplitude of the signal are adjusted in accordance with the next modification.

    摘要: Communication is performed for a first communication device (120) having a set of antenna element (125). A quality-indication signal (270) is received from a second communication device (110). A complex weighting is calculated based on the quality-indication signal. A pre-transmission signal (260) is modified based on the complex weighting to produce a set of modified pre-transmission signals. Each modified pre-transmission signal from the set of modified pre-transmission signals is uniquely associated with an antenna element from the set of antenna elements. The set of modified pre-transmission signals is sent from the set of antenna elements to produce a transmitted signal. The complex weighting is associated with a total power of the transmitted power and at least one from a phase rotation and a power ratio associated with each antenna element from the set of antenna elements.

    摘要: Systems and methods for enhancing performance of a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) receiving system are provided herein. The performance enhancement is achieved by connecting a radio distributed network (RDN) of beamformers having M antennas to a MIMO system having N branches, wherein M > N. A control module is configured to tune the antennas based on channel estimation metrics of the beamformed signals. As the antennas outnumber the MIMO channels, embodiments of the present invention provide means for distinguishing between the antenna signals so the control module may assess their individual contribution. Other embodiments, when the MIMO class includes multiple layers, use the channel estimation metrics to pick a single weight setting for each beamformer that provides best phase and amplitude matching, to optimize the total receive power. Another embodiment uses the channel estimation and weight selection for antennas swapping for increasing the probability of achieving better phase and amplitude matches.

    摘要: A method and system for improving closed loop feedback in transmit diversity communication. In one embodiment of the invention, a predetermined variation of one or more transmit diversity parameters is performed at the transmit diversity transmitter. The receiver compares the transmit diversity parameter values of the received signals to the predetermined variation and transmits to the transmitter a value of a transmit diversity correction parameter. The transmitter may use this correction value to modify the transmit diversity parameter in a subsequent transmission.
