    摘要: A method (500) for wireless communications is described, the method comprising receiving (502) multiple feedback aspects of a channel for the wireless communications, determining (504) multiple codewords (W 1 , W 2 ) based on the multiple feedback aspects, determining (506) a final precoding matrix (W) based on the multiple codewords (W 1 , W 2 ), enforcing (508) at least one codebook property in at least one of the final precoding matrix (W) or the multiple codewords (W 1 , W 2 ), wherein enforcing the at least one codebook property comprises quantizing each of the multiple codewords (W 1 , W 2 ) or quantizing the final precoding matrix (W), applying (510) the final precoding matrix (W) to a plurality of spatial streams to form precoded spatial streams and transmitting (512) the precoded spatial streams. Also the corresponding apparatus is described.

    摘要: A method includes holding in a receiver a definition of a codebook including precoding matrices, and a definition of multiple sub-codebooks including different respective subsets of the precoding matrices in the codebook. A sub-codebook is selected in coordination with a transmitter, for use in a given time interval or frequency range. A Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) signal that is transmitted from the transmitter is received. Feedback is generated in the receiver based on the received MIMO signal. The feedback is indicative of one or more preferred precoding matrices, which are chosen from the selected sub-codebook and which are to be used in precoding subsequent MIMO signals in respective partitions of the given time interval or frequency range. The feedback is transmitted from the receiver to the transmitter.

    摘要: Embodiments of a method and apparatus for selecting one of several different power constraints under which sets of complex, beam weights are normalized are described herein. The embodiments of the method and apparatus specifically select the power constraint based on a code rate used to encode information carried by a transmit signal weighted by the sets of complex, beam weights. Appropriate selection of the power constraint can improve the bit error rate (BER) or block error rate (BLER) of the decoded transmit signal at a receiver.
