摘要:
A method implemented by a wireless terminal of reporting channel state information to a wireless communication network is disclosed. The wireless terminal receives reference symbols on a set of channel state information reference symbol (CSI-RS) resources, and determines a common transmission rank for the set of CSI-RS resources, based on the reference symbols received on a subset of those CSI-RS resources. The terminal then generates CSI feedback as a function of the common transmission rank, and transmits the CSI feedback to the communication network. The CSI feedback may include the common transmission rank itself, or may include different transmission ranks for different CSI-RS resources each determined as a function of the common transmission rank. A complementary method in which a network node uses such a CSI feedback to perform rank adaptation for the set of CSI-RS resources is also disclosed.

A system and method for improving the link adaptation in a wireless communication system is disclosed. User Equipment (UE) forms an interference hypothesis by amending a measured interference and noise by artificially injecting, to the measured interference and noise, interference corresponding to at least one emulated interfering isotropic signal that is virtually transmitted over an associated estimated effective channel. The UE further determines at least one channel state information (CSI) report based on the interference hypothesis, and transmits the CSI report to the network.

According to some embodiments, there is provided a base station system configured to, among other things, (a) detect whether a particular UE is using too much power to transmit uplink data and (b) in response, transmit a message to the UE instructing the UE to detect a power control RS (PCRS) that is intended only for the particular UE. In some embodiments, the PCRS is transmitted such that the power (actual or nominal) of the PCRS as received by the UE is higher than the power of the previous CRS detected by the UE, thereby leading the UE to calculate a lower PL value, which can lead to the UE lowering its output power.

The invention relates to methods and arrangements for rank adaptation for transmissions over a multipie-input-muttipie-output, M1MO, channel in a wireless communications system. A receiving node (270) performs (310) measurements on reference signals received from a sending node (200), The receiving node performs (330a(330b) a first feedback computation for a first rank and at least one second feedback computation for at yeast one second rank based on the measurements. The first feedback computation includes applying a first relation between assumed transmitted energy for data and transmitted energy for the reference signals that is specific to the first rank. A second relation between assumed transmitted energy for data and transmitted energy for the reference signals is specific to the at least one second rank. The receiving node selects (340) one rank based on the feedback computations and indicates (350) the selected rank in a feedback report to the sending node.

The present invention relates to a method and arrangements in a communication system for Multi User Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) signaling via Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) antennas between a base station and one of a plurality of mobile terminals supporting both Single User and Multi User Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO) signaling modes. Switching between the modes is supported in the system and the modes have partly shared signaling. SU-MIMO mode signaling which is redundant, i.e. not needed, for MU-MIMO mode signaling is identified. Bits, i.e. data bits, of the identified redundant signaling is re-interpreted or re-defined to comprise signaling information associated with MU-MIMO mode. The signaling information associated with MU-MIMO mode is signaled to the mobile terminal by using the reinterpreted redundant bits.

A method and an arrangement (800) in a user equipment (420) for reporting Channel State Information, CSI, and a method and an arrangement (1000) in a base station (410) for obtaining CSI are provided. The user equipment (420) is in connection with the base station (410) in a cellular communication network (400). After receiving a receiving (702) a grant in a subframe n to be used for CSI reporting, from the base station, the user equipment determines (703) subframe type of a subframe n+p. The user equipment then reports (704) to the base station, CSI reflecting channel conditions in the subframe type of subframe n+p. p is a variable value.

One aspect of the teachings presented herein provides advantages for sending precoder selection feedback from a transceiver to another transceiver, for use by the other transceiver as precoding recommendations. The transceiver generates two types of precoder selection feedback, where one type uses a smaller signaling payload than the other and therefore provides a distinct reduction in the signaling overhead associated with reporting precoding recommendations. The transceiver uses the reduced-overhead type of reporting when reporting at certain times, or on certain channels, or in response to control signaling. In one example, a UE in an LTE network sends precoder information to an eNodeB on the PUCCH by sending smaller-range index values that index only a subset of precoders, but sends full-range index values when reporting on the PUSCH, which index a larger set of precoders.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods and arrangements in a wireless communication system that enable the use of multi-codeword transmission and ACK/NACK compression with low performance loss. It also enables the use of advanced receivers of reasonable complexity. This is achieved by a solution based on the even distribution of the symbols of separately coded blocks of information bits over the available physical resources before transmission. Each physical resource will thus carry a mixture of symbols from all blocks of information bits, which results in a more similar channel quality for the blocks of information bits. A compressed ACK/NACK message corresponding to the blocks of information bits will thus be more accurate and the performance loss due to the ACK/NACK compression can be reduced.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for conveying precoding information in a control message from a first node to a second node, with information on properties of an associated wireless data transmission (D) between the first and second nodes employing spatial multiplexing and precoding for the data transmission. The first node determines precoding parameters for signal transmission to the receiving node, optionally based on feedback reports from the receiving node. The first node encodes control information bits in precoding information fields of the control message by means of values in TBS fields of the control message, such that the TBS field values determine the interpretation of the bits in the precoding information field(s). The control message is then sent to the second node.
