Abstract: As wireless networks evolve, network providers may utilize legacy LTE devices as well as devices that support massive multi-input, multiple output (M-MIMO). Systems and methods for simultaneously servicing legacy LTE devices and M-MIMO devices are provided. In embodiments, a transmission zone for M-MIMO communications is defined within a legacy, non M-MIMO radio frame. The location of the M-MIMO transmission zone is transmitted to user devices. For example, an identification of the location of the M-MIMO transmission zone is transmitted in a system information message. In a further example, the location of the M-MIMO transmission zone is transmitted in the downlink control information. The location of the M-MIMO transmission zone may be defined dynamically based on a variety of criteria. In addition or alternatively, a set of pre-defined transmission zones may be utilized.

Abstract: For an infinite number of transmit antennas at a base station (BS), matched filter (MF) precoding (a type of precoding used to perform SU-MIMO transmission) becomes optimal for performing spatial multiplexing. But observations have shown that precoding types for performing MU-MIMO transmission can perform significantly better than MF precoding for a realizable number of transmit antennas at the BS, even while using the simplest precoding types for MU-MIMO transmission. For large inter-cell interference typically encountered by user terminals (UTs) at or near the boundary of the cell served by the BS, MF precoding can still be used to eliminate or reduce the need for coordination among cells, which consumes network and back-haul resources.
Abstract translation: 对于基站（BS）的无限数量的发射天线，匹配滤波器（MF）预编码（用于执行SU-MIMO传输的预编码的类型）对于执行空间复用是最佳的。 但是观察结果表明，即使在使用MU-MIMO传输的最简单的预编码类型时，用于执行MU-MIMO传输的预编码类型也可以执行明显优于在BS处的可实现数量的发射天线的MF预编码。 对于在由BS服务的小区的边界处或附近的用户终端（UT）通常遇到的大的小区间干扰，MF预编码仍然可以用于消除或减少对小区之间的协调的需要， 运输资源。

Abstract: Embodiments recognize that in MIMO and M-MIMO systems, physical antennas tend to be closely spaced to each other (e.g., a grid). As a result, a spatial correlation typically exists between physical antennas as well as between transmissions from logical antenna ports. Embodiments exploit this characteristic to reduce the amount of pilot signaling needed to enable downlink channel estimation. Specifically, embodiments limit pilot signaling to only a subset of supported logical antenna ports and rely on spatial correlation information to interpolate channels from logic antenna ports for which no pilot signaling is used.
Abstract translation: 实施例认识到，在MIMO和M-MIMO系统中，物理天线倾向于彼此紧密地间隔（例如网格）。 结果，在物理天线之间以及来自逻辑天线端口的传输之间通常存在空间相关性。 实施例利用该特性来减少启用下行链路信道估计所需的导频信令量。 具体地，实施例将导频信令限制到仅支持的逻辑天线端口的子集，并且依赖于空间相关信息从不使用导频信令的逻辑天线端口内插信道。

Abstract: Multiple input multiple output systems using a transmit precoder codebook designed for a four-transmitter (4Tx) antenna configuration are described. The 4Tx antenna configuration is an attractive option for base stations in cellular network environments and it is desirable to use a transmitter precoder codebook that provides sufficient granularity in typical operating scenarios, and to address various antenna configurations. In an embodiment, the transmit precoder codebook can be used for a variety of transmit antenna configurations including uniform linear antenna arrays, cross-polarized antenna arrays and uncorrelated antenna arrays. In another embodiment, the transmit precoder codebook is a two-component codebook, with a first precoder component signaled at a first rate and a second precoder component signaled at a second higher rate.

Abstract: A framework for enabling a user equipment (UE) to apply interference suppression processing during network conditions that are favorable to interference suppression or that are known is provided. The framework includes an interference suppression (IS) time and frequency (time/frequency) zone, which can be scheduled by a serving base station and signaled to the UE. In an embodiment, the serving base station coordinates with the interfering base station(s) to create a network condition favorable to interference suppression at the UE during the IS time/frequency zone. In another embodiment, the serving base station opportunistically schedules the IS time/frequency zone for the UE whenever it determines favorable transmission parameters being used or scheduled for use by the interfering base station(s). The UE applies interference suppression processing within the IS time/frequency zone, thereby improving receiver performance. Outside the time/frequency zone, the UE may disable interference suppression processing so as not to degrade receiver performance.
