Abstract:
Embodiments of a millimeter-wave (mmW) communication device and methods for intelligent control of transmit power and power density are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a mmW base station includes a beamforming processor that is to configure a large-aperture array antenna for multi-beam transmissions at mmW frequencies to a plurality of user equipment (UE). The beamforming processor may allocate each UE a non-interfering spectral portion of a full channel bandwidth that is substantially less than the full channel bandwidth and perform multi-beam beamforming to concurrently direct a plurality of multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) antenna beams to the UEs for a concurrent transmission of data streams to the UEs within their allocated spectral portion in accordance with a transmit power allocation.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to a distributed relay. The distributed relay may utilize beamforming and/or a specific physical arrangement of transmit and receive antennas to ensure a high isolation between antennas. The distributed relay may further facilitate the concurrent operation of two different intermediate frequency (IF) chains to support communications between a network entity and user device, receiving and transmitting data on each of the two IF chains independently of one another.
Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for implementing am Intelligent Distributed Relay (IDR). The IDR may advantageously use the best qualities of both amplify-and-forward and decode-and-forward solutions. The advantageously leverages the use of a digital signal processing (DSP) circuitry, which may decode the data and control information. The control information may be used to control IDR behavior (e.g., in the uplink and/or downlink directions) and to enhance its characteristics.
