Abstract:
Disclosed is a device for allocating transmission power using a symbol error rate (SER) for orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBC) in a wireless communication system. The device includes: a plurality of antennas, which are distributed geographically and independently linked to a central processing unit; a receiver to select an optimum subset of the SER performance, using a preset power allocation to each of available antenna subset combinations, and sending the selected subset to a transmitter; and a central processing unit to allocate power by applying an OSTBC symbol having a unit average power to the optimum subset from the receiver.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method and an apparatus for assigning a subcarrier to a subcell serviced by a Distributed Antenna System (DAS) employing an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA) scheme in a broadband wireless access system. The method includes dividing an overall frequency band into multiple subcarrier bands, assigning the multiple subcarrier bands to respective Base Stations (BSs) without overlap among the BSs adjacent to one another in assigning the multiple subcarrier bands corresponding to the divided overall frequency band to the respective BSs and dividing the assigned subcarrier bands and selectively assigning the divided subcarrier bands to multiple Remote Stations (RSs) connected with the BSs through optical fibers.

A method for operating a Mobile Station (MS) in a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless communication system is provided. The method includes measuring channel quality for a serving Base Station (BS), if the channel quality is less than a threshold, measuring interference power from one or more neighbor BSs, determining a Precoding Matrix Index (PMI) and a priority metric for each neighbor BS, and feeding back at least one of the PMI, a PMI type indicator, the priority metric, and the channel quality to the serving BS.
Abstract:
A method provides mixed analog/digital beamforming by a transmitter in a mobile communication system. The method includes converting a modulation symbol into a parallel symbol stream, performing digital beamforming on the parallel symbol stream, performing an IFFT operation on the digital-beamformed parallel symbol stream to generate a time-domain symbol, converting the IFFT-operated time-domain symbol into a serial time-domain symbol, inserting a CP into the serial time-domain symbol, performing a DAC operation on the CP-inserted symbol to generate an analog signal, and performing analog beamforming by multiplying the analog signal by the analog beamforming precoder optimized for the first subcarrier transmitted through at least one RF channel.

A method and apparatus provide interference mitigation in a heterogeneous network using beamforming. In the method, a macro Mobile Station (MS) receives a broadcast message including a Precoding Matrix Index (PMI) set restricted in a macro cell, measures a Signal-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) and a channel power from an adjacent femto Base Station (BS) and calculates a PMI, determines whether to request a dedicated frequency resource for a macro MS on the basis of the measured SINR, the channel power from the adjacent femto BS, and the calculated PMI, and requests the dedicated frequency resource for the macro MS from a macro BS.

A method for triggering multicell MIMO schemes in a multiple antenna system includes transmitting, at a Mobile Station (MS), a first feedback information for single-cell closed-loop MIMO to a Base Station (BS); requesting, at the BS, Normalized Interference Power (NIP) feedback from the MS based on the first feedback information; feeding, at the MS, the NIP back to the BS; selecting, at the BS, a first NIP threshold and a second NIP threshold based on the NIP fed back from the MS; and requesting, at the MS, one of a first MIMO scheme and a second MIMO scheme by comparing the calculated first and second NIPs with the first NIP threshold and the second NIP threshold.
