Abstract:
A method for performing a precoding based on a generalized phase shift or a precoding based on an extended phase shift in a Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) system employing several sub-carriers, and a transceiver for supporting the same are disclosed. A phase-shift-based precoding matrix is generalized by multiplying a diagonal matrix for a phase shift by a unitary matrix for maintaining orthogonality between sub-carriers. In this case, a diagonal matrix part may be extended by multiplying a precoding matrix for removing an interference between sub-carriers by a diagonal matrix for a phase shift. By generalization and extension of the phase-shift-based precoding, a transceiver is more simplified, and a communication efficiency increases.

A method and an apparatus for feedback transmission in a wireless communication system are provided. A terminal receives information about a short-term feedback period and a long-term feedback period from a base station, and then transmits to the base station short-term feedback information per short-term feedback period or long-term feedback information per long-term feedback period over a primary fast feedback channel (PFBSCH). The long-term feedback information contains an index of a subband subjected to channel measurement and a difference in measurement values that is a difference between a reference channel measurement value and a channel measurement value being measured.

A method of transmitting data using cyclic delay in a multi-antenna system using a plurality of subcarriers and a transceiver supporting the same are disclosed. More particularly, a method of selecting a matrix (second matrix) for transforming a precoding matrix (first matrix) into a unitary matrix from a codebook by a prescribed reference is disclosed. An index for selecting the second matrix is calculated by a prescribed modulo operation in an open loop system or delivered as feedback information in a closed loop system. Diversity can be obtained by switching each column of the selected second matrix in accordance with time. In a multi-user system, a single second matrix can be determined by combining columns of the second matrix selected by each user.
