摘要:
A technique for precoding a signal to be transmitted over a physical channel from a sender to a receiver is provided. A method includes receiving precoding information and applying precoding matrix at the sender based on the precoding information. The precoding information is received via a feedback mechanism from the receiver. The application of the precoding matrix results in a precoded signal for transmission over the physical channel. The precoding matrix enhances mutual information at the receiver.

A technique for precoding a signal to be transmitted over a physical channel (102; 206) from a sender to a receiver is provided. As to a method aspect, a method (100) comprises the steps of receiving (104) precoding information and applying (108) a precoding matrix (W) at the sender based on the precoding information. The precoding information is received via a feedback mechanism from the receiver. The application results in a precoded signal (216, 218) for transmission over the physical channel (102; 206). The precoding matrix (W) enhances mutual information (I) at the receiver.

A technique for determining in a fading channel environment a scaling factor for soft bit quantization is proposed. In a method realisation, the technique includes repeatedly determining an SNR value for the fading channel, calculating a weighted average based on a plurality of the SNR values, wherein weighting is performed such that contributions of extremal SNR values are attenuated, and determining the scaling factor for soft bit quantization dependent on the weighted average.

Method of arranging a cellular radio network in a geographical area which is already covered by an existing cellular radio network, wherein cell clusters of the cellular radio network to be introduced and using a specific transmission frequency are located in areas determined by connecting at least two cells of the existing cellular radio network using the specific transmission frequency, and wherein the cell clusters are arranged such that they do not overlap with the cells of the existing cellular radio network. The cell clusters of the introduced cellular radio network may be adjusted by reducing the cell size of cell clusters of the introduced cellular radio network, and by introducing new cells into cell clusters of the introduced cellular radio network. The invention allows to reuse frequencies of an existing cellular radio network by an introduced cellular radio network in the same geographical area.

A radio receiver system (30) comprises a radio receiver (41), a receiver sample clock (60), which is used for sampling a modulated base-band signal; and a timing correction unit (100). The timing correction unit (100) performs, in the frequency domain, a timing drift compensation between a transmitter sample clock (66) and the receiver sample clock (60). In one example context of implementation, the plural modulated radio frequency carriers have been modulated using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM).

A method and a device of providing timing information within a wireless communication system is described. The timing information is extracted from a received transmit signal. The inventive method comprises the steps of providing a training signal on the receiver side relating to a known signal portion of the transmit signal, scaling the training signal, quantizing the scaled training signal, correlating one or more parts of the received transmit signal with the scaled training signal to obtain one or more correlation results, and determining the timing information on the basis of the correlation results.

MIMO transmission methods are applied to communicaiton systems in which a transmitter has more than one transmit antenna and a receiver has more than one receive antenna. Information to be transmitted is divided into a plurality of subsignals according to the number of used transmit antennas and each subsignal is processed separately before it is emitted by the respective transmit antenna. In the receiver the different receive signals are processed thus that subsignals are detected and decoded and the contribution of each detected and decoded subsignal is subtracted from the receive signals and whereby a feedback channel from receiver to transmitter is used to send control information to the transmitter depending on the receive situation. In order to optimize the usage of the MIMO channel the invention proposes the in the receiver the link quality of each subsignal is determined and information of each subsignal is transmitted to the receiver via the feedback channel and that in the transmitter properties of the subsignals are controlled by the link quality information.

A frequency tracking device (FTD) in particular for use in a OFDM communication system comprises a selector (SEL) which selects on the basis of N channel coefficients (Cest) a number M of subcarriers corresponding to the M channel coefficients (Cest) having the largest absolute values. An evaluator (EVAL) of the frequency tracking device (FTD) determines a frequency deviation estimate (foff,est) on the basis of the selected M subcarriers and the selected M channel coefficients. In addition to or instead of a feedback correction unit (CORR1) provided upstream of a multi-carrier filter bank (8; FFT), the frequency tracking device (FTD) can also comprise a feed forward correction unit (CORR2) provided downstream of the receiver multi-carrier filter bank (8). In this case the selector (SEL) and the feed forward correction unit (CORR2) operate on the same data symbols such that the correction unit (CORR2) corrects the same data symbols which are subject to the selection and evaluation process in the selector (SEL) and the evaluator (EVAL). Based on the selection and evaluation processes frequency deviations (foff) which are introduced into multi-carrier symbols when being transmitted between a transmitter multi-carrier filter bank (4; IFFT) and a receiver multi-carrier filter bank (8; FFT) can be corrected more efficiently, e.g. with a reduced computational complexity.
