    摘要: Methods and apparatus for receiving adjacent channel signals wherein adjacent channel interference effects are minimized through joint demodulation of the adjacent channel signals. A channel associated with each signal and each corresponding frequency band is estimated and used to form joint branch metrics for joint sequence estimation. In an exemplary embodiment, a baseband processor receives baseband samples corresponding to at least one carrier frequency, and then jointly demodulates at least two information streams corresponding to different carrier frequencies in dependence upon the received baseband samples. In another embodiment, a joint channel estimator receives at least two baseband sample streams, each stream corresponding to a different frequency band, and jointly estimates medium responses for each of at least two information signals which were transmitted in different frequency bands.

    摘要: A mobile communications system receiver has improved synchronization and channel estimation for receiving a transmitted signal passing through a radio channel. A processor receives and samples the transmitted signal for a plurality of timing hypotheses. A channel estimator hypothesizes unknown symbols at a pilot cluster of the sampled signal and estimates the radio channel of the pilot cluster for each hypothesized symbol sequence. The estimator determines an error corresponding to each hypothesized symbol sequence using the sampled signal, the estimated radio channel and the hypothesized symbols and determines actual timing estimates and actual radio channel estimates by selecting the radio channel estimates associated with the hypothesized symbols and the timing and hypothesis that minimizes the error.

    摘要: A system and method for reducing the OFDM out-of-band emissions (OOBE) by utilizing a transmitter windowing operation that smooths the inherent rectangular pulse shape of the OFDM signals. The technique retains the main design of the OFDM receivers and provides backward compatibility for the existing OFDM-based systems. The guard band and the window parameters that control the guard duration are jointly optimized regarding the use case and the power offset between the users. To fully exploit and further increase the potential of adaptive guards, an interference-based scheduling algorithm is proposed as well.

    摘要: An optimum time domain windowing scheme for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)-based waveforms in the sense of spectral concentration is proposed. Instead of evenly suppressing the sidelobes along the frequency, the sidelobe power is concentrated within a guard band while maximally suppressing the power for a desired frequency range. This is achieved by employing optimum finite duration pulses, prolate spheroidal wave functions (PSWF), to shape the OFDM transmit pulse. Also with per-subcarrier windowing scheme, the effect of inner subcarriers on sidelobes is diminished by utilizing the concentration bandwidth versus out-of-band power trade-off in PSWF and the multicarrier nature of the OFDM.
