A transmitter, channel coder, and method for coding and transmitting a sequence of symbols in a digital communication system utilizing soft pilot symbols. In one embodiment, the transmitter transmits a set of soft pilot symbols with higher reliability than the remaining symbols in the sequence by modulating the soft pilot symbols with a lower order modulation such as BPSK or QPSK while modulating the remaining symbols with a higher order modulation such as 16QAM or 64QAM. The transmitter shares the modulation type and location (time/frequency/code) of the soft pilot symbols with a receiver. Unlike traditional fixed pilots, the soft pilots still carry some data. Additionally, the soft pilots are particularly helpful in establishing the amplitude reference essential in demodulating the higher order modulation symbols. In another embodiment, soft pilot symbols are inserted by low-level puncturing of channel encoded bits and replacing the punctures bits with known bit patterns.

A received POLMUX signal is rotated by fixed rotation parameters (Rot0, Rot1, Rot2) and the rotated POLMUX signal with optimal signal performance is selected and phase information is derived from both polarities. A pre-filter improves the timing accuracy.

A method of tap coefficient correction includes: obtaining a synchronization symbol difference between a first polarization and a second polarization orthogonal to the first polarization; obtaining a delay amount of each of the first polarization and the second polarization in an adaptive equalizer; calculating, in a case where a horizontal axis represents a tap number and a vertical axis represents a tap coefficient and a tap number or a nearest tap number with which an area of a drawn figure is halved is set as a gravity center of tap coefficients, a correction reference gravity center of the tap coefficients set in the adaptive equalizer, based on the synchronization symbol difference and the delay amount; and performing a correction of shifting an entire tap coefficients in units of symbol to cause the correction reference gravity center to be closest to a tap center.
摘要:
A receiver and method for receiving and processing a sequence of transmitted symbols in a digital communication system utilizing soft pilot symbols. A set of soft pilot symbols are transmitted with higher reliability than the remaining symbols in the sequence by modulating the soft pilot symbols with a lower order modulation such as BPSK or QPSK while modulating the remaining symbols with a higher order modulation such as 16QAM or 64QAM. The receiver knows the modulation type and location (time/frequency/code) of the soft pilot symbols, and demodulates them first. The receiver uses the demodulated soft pilot symbols as known symbols to estimate parameters of the received radio signal. Unlike traditional fixed pilots, the soft pilots still carry some data. Additionally, the soft pilots are particularly helpful in establishing the amplitude reference essential in demodulating the higher order modulation symbols.

The invention relates to a method for equalizing signals transmitted via at least one transmission antenna and received by at least one reception antenna (2, 4). To reduce filter complexity, the invention provides for selecting the chip-samples of the received signals such that only one sample per chip is selected for each filter (30, 32; 34, 36).

A normalized least means square (NLMS) equalizer including two equalizer filters is disclosed. In one embodiment, a single correction term generator is used to generate correction terms for tap coefficient updates of each of the equalizer filters based on a pilot signal. In another embodiment, two different correction term generators are used to generate correction terms for each of the equalizer filters, whereby one of the correction term generators uses data received from a hard decision unit at the output of one of the equalizer filters to generate correction terms for both of the equalizer filters.
摘要:
Filter coefficients of a beamformer (100) are computed based on a segment of input samples. The segment of input samples is divided into a plurality of blocks of input samples wherein the plurality of blocks of input samples are received by a shared memory at a first rate. The first block of the plurality of blocks is received in the shared memory at a first time. The plurality of blocks of input samples from the shared memory are read out at a second rate wherein the first block of the plurality of blocks is read from the shared memory at a second time. A plurality of partial covariance matrices for the plurality of blocks read from the shared memory are computed and added together to determine a covariance matrices used to compute the filter coefficients.
