    摘要: A method for combining signals coming from multiple diversity sources may include performing maximal-ratio combining (MRC) based equalization and combining for receiver antenna diversity. The method may also include performing MRC-based equalization and combining for repetition diversity. The method may also include performing MRC-based equalization and combining for duplication diversity. The MRC-based equalization and combining for receiver antenna diversity, the MRC-based equalization and combining for repetition diversity, and the MRC-based equalization and combining for duplication diversity may each be performed separately.

    摘要: The present disclosure includes techniques to process signals in a communication system, in which multiple signal processing units process signals received from multiple antennae. The signal processor units are controlled by operational-mode control signals, which are generated using an estimated Carrier-to-Interference-Noise-Ratio (CINR). The estimated CINR is generated using an equalized and combined signal, which is generated from the received signals and the estimated channel responses using the processed signals according to an operational mode. In another embodiment, a controller generates sub-carrier allocation signals using an allocation base. A channel status information (CSI) and multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) controller generates sub-carrier CSI signals and operational-mode control signals using the sub-carrier allocation signals, estimated channel responses, and estimated CINR. The operational-mode control signals select one of multiple antenna paths. A transmitter-diversity processor generates transmitter-diversity signals as a function of at least a mapped signal, sub-carrier CSI signals, and operational mode control signals.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for combining retransmitted hybrid automatic repeat-request (HARQ) messages at different stages in an OFDM/OFDMA receiver are provided. A combination of different types of HARQ combiners may be designed into the receiver and selected on a per-channel basis. Proper selection of a HARQ combining scheme may reduce the required HARQ buffer size and may provide an increased combining gain when compared to conventional HARQ combining techniques. Furthermore, the HARQ combiner type may be dynamically selected through forward and reverse shifting between the different types of HARQ combining schemes in an effort to decrease the bit error ratio (BER) without saturating the HARQ buffer.

    摘要: In accordance with a method for processing a received orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) signal that comprises a duplicated signal, sub-carriers within the OFDMA signal may be arranged into a duplicated format. The OFDMA signal may be equalized and combined after the sub-carriers have been arranged into the duplicated format. The equalizing and combining may be performed in accordance with a maximum ratio combining (MRC) scheme. The OFDMA signal may be demapped after the equalizing and combining is performed.
