A method estimates a channel impulse response in an ultra wide bandwidth (UWB) system. Multiple training sequences modulated at a chip rate are received. Each training sequence is sampled by parallel with multiple correlators at sampling rate substantially slower than the chip rate to obtain a samples over a time interval of the impulse response at a resolution substantially equal to the chip rate, and then estimating the channel impulse response from these samples.

A method minimizes a rate for feeding back channel state information from a receiver to a transmitter in a multi-input, multi-output communications systems. A temporal autocorrelation function of the channel between the transmitter and the receiver is determined. A spatial covariance information is estimated of the channel. Then, the minimum rate for feeding back channel state information from the receiver to the transmitter is based on actual channel state information and the estimated spatial covariance information and the temporal autocorrelation function.

A method allocates data rates to layers to be transmitted in a multiple input, multiple output communications system. An input data stream is demultiplexed into multiple layers. For each layer, determine statistics representing a capacity of the layer based on past observations of transmitting the layer through a channel. For each layer, determine an optimum data rate based on the statistics. For each layer, determine if the optimum data rate is less than a minimum data rate of a set of available bit rates, and, if true, selecting, for a particular layer, the minimum data rate from the set of available data rates, and otherwise, if false, selecting, for the particular layer, a closest data rate from the set of available data rates that is less than the optimum data rate.

A method suppresses interference in a time-frequency hopped, ultra wide bandwidth system. Signals corresponding to a transmitted symbol are received. The received signals are frequency demodulated, and a coefficient vector w that minimizes a cost function C ( w n ) = 1 ∑ k λ n - k ∑ k λ n - k w n H x k - c k 2 , is estimated, where λ is a weighting factor between 0, x is a vector representing the received signals, H is a frequency response of a channel used to transmit the symbol, and c is a known training symbol. A coefficient vector, ŵn={circumflex over (R)}n−1{circumflex over (d)}n, is determined, where a correlation matrix for the received signals is R ^ n = 1 ∑ k λ n - k ∑ k λ n - k x k x k H , and an estimate of a crosscorrelation is d ^ n = 1 ∑ k λ n - k ∑ k λ n - k x k c k * . The received signals are then combined according to c ^ n = 1 C ( w ^ n ) w ^ n H x n = 1 1 - w ^ n H d ^ n w ^ n H x n .
摘要:
A wireless communication system includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter includes multiple groups of transmit antennas. Input symbols are generated and then orthogonal space-time block is encoded to produce a data stream for each group of transmit antennas. Each data stream is adaptively linear space encoded to produce an encoded signal for each transmit antenna of each group according to feedback information for the group. The receiver includes a single receive antenna, a module for measuring a phase of a channel impulse response for each transmit antenna. The feedback information is determined independently for each group of transmit antennas from the channel impulse responses. The feedback information for each group of transmit antennas is sent to the transmitter.

A method codes multiple data streams in multiple-input, multiple-output communications systems. In a transmitter, an input bitstream is encoded as codewords b in multiple layers. Each layer is modulated. A quasi-block diagonal, low-density parity-check code is applied to each layer, the quasi-block diagonal, parity-check code being a matrix H, the matrix H including one row of blocks for each subcode, and one row of blocks for each layer such that Hb=0 for any valid codeword. The layers are then forwarded to transmit antennas as a transmitted signal x.

A method increases transmit diversity gain in a wireless communication system. In the wireless network, a transmitter has multiple antennas and a receiver has one antenna. A phase of each of received signal is measured. One signal is selected as a reference signal. For each other signal, a phase, with respect to the phase of the reference signal, is measured independently to determine feedback information indicating a required rotation of each other signal so that a phase of each other rotated signal is within an identical quadrant as the phase of the reference signal. The feedback information for each other signal is sent to the transmitter. In the transmitter, each other signal is phase rotated according to the corresponding feedback information before the signal is transmitting to the receiver.
摘要:
A method for selecting antennas in a multiple-input, multiple-output wireless communications network that includes multiple stations is presented. Each station includes a set of transmit RF chains and a set of receive RF chains, and each RF chain is connectable to a set of antennas. A first station transmits a training frame for each possible subset of the set of antennas, and the set of transmit RF chains are connected to the subset of antennas according to a connection mapping rule while transmitting each training frame. A subchannel matrix is estimated in a second station for each frame. The subchannel matrices are combined to obtain a complete channel matrix. A particular subset of the antennas is selected according to the complete channel matrix. The set of transmit RF chains is connected to the selected particular subset of antennas to transmit data from the first station to the second station.

摘要:
A method for antenna subset selection by joint processing in RF and baseband in a multi-antenna systems. Lt input data streams are generated in a transmitter for either diversity transmission or multiplexing transmission. These streams are modulated to RF signals. These signals are switched to the t branches associated with the t transmit antennas, and a phase-shift transformation is applied to the RF signals by a t×t matrix multiplication operator Φ1, whose output are t≧Lt RF signals. These signals are transmitted over a channel by t antennas. The transmitted signals are received by r antennas in a receiver. A phase-shift transformation is applied to the r RF signals by a r×r matrix multiplication operator Φ2. Lr branches of these phase shifted streams are demodulated and further processed in baseband to recover the input data streams.
