Abstract:
A method for transmitting data streams in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system is provided, where each data stream is mapped to multiple layers in an MIMO channel space for transmission, and the method includes: performing inter-layer interleaving for N data streams to obtain N interleaved data streams; mapping the N interleaved data streams respectively to N layers in the MIMO channel space, and transmitting the N interleaved data streams that are mapped to the N layers. By using the method of the present invention, a combined CQI can be used in a better way to improve MIMO transmission performance. Further, an impact of inter-layer interference is canceled by using an interference cancellation technology (for example, an SIC technology) based on the inter-layer interleaving.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a data retransmission method, apparatus, and system, and relates to the field of communications. In a data retransmission method, a special codeword is determined according to a difference between a number of layers selected by a transmitter and the number of layers that need to be occupied for retransmitting a codeword. The number of layers that need to be occupied by the codeword to be retransmitted is smaller than the number of layers selected by the transmitter and no new data needs to be transmitted and wherein the number of transport blocks comprised in the special codeword is equal to the difference. The codeword that needs to be retransmitted and the special codeword are allocated to each transport layer through a layer mapping.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a pilot signal transmitting method, and a channel estimation method, an apparatus, and a system. The method includes: within a transmission time interval (TTI), transmitting a first pilot signal (CPICH1) on a first antenna, and transmitting a second pilot signal (CPICH2) on a second antenna; when no first-type terminal is scheduled within coverage of a MIMO system within the TTI, transmitting a third pilot signal (CPICH3) on a third antenna, and transmitting a fourth pilot signal (CPICH4) on a fourth antenna; and when a first-type terminal is scheduled within the coverage of the MIMO system within the TTI, transmitting the CPICH3 and a fifth pilot signal (CPICH5) on the third antenna, and transmitting the CPICH4 and a sixth pilot signal (CPICH6) on the fourth antenna. By using the method, interference of a pilot signal to a legacy terminal can be greatly reduced.
