摘要:
A multi-carrier data communication is selectively operable in one of different communication modes which result in differently structured communication signals, the communication being configured for processing a data item intended to be transmitted to generate different transmission candidate data; selecting one of the transmission candidate data for transmission; selecting one of the communication modes based on the selected data item; and transmitting the selected data item using the selected communication mode.

In a robust system and method for detecting packets in SISO and MIMO broadband multicarrier transmission, a packet detector computes continuously the sum of the moduli of the power-normalized auto-correlations of a sequence of received signals (204), tuned on the periodicity of the training symbols. When the power-normalized auto-correlation exceeds a first predetermined threshold (206), then the maximum value of the sum of the moduli of all the cross-correlations between the received signals and the M aperiodic sequences is computed in a given time window (208), sliding in time from −c0 to c0. A packet is identified as received (212) when the maximum value of the sum of the moduli of the cross-correlations exceeds a second predetermined threshold (210).

摘要:
A multiple-user multiple input-multiple output wireless communication system uses a set of multiple subcarriers arranged in plural subsets or resource blocks. Precoding of signals transmitted from a base station to user terminals involves acquiring channel state information on the connection channel between the base station and user terminals in the plurality. Channel quality indicators are detected with user terminals for respective subsets of resource blocks to produce user/resource block pairs having associated channel quality indicators. The user/resource block pairs are subjected to selection as a function of the channel quality indicators associated therewith so that precoding is performed by acquiring channel state information exclusively for the user/resource block pairs surviving the selection as a function of the channel quality indicators and, possibly, other selection steps as a function of other parameters, such as, speed, maximum bit rate, and direction of arrival or angular spread in a multiple-stage selection process.
摘要:
A method for selecting a precoding matrix to be used in a MIMO communication system includes a transmitter, a receiver and a communication channel, wherein the precoding matrix is used by the transmitter to precode codewords to be transmitted to the receiver over the communication channel. At the receiver, an optimum precoding matrix within a codebook of precoding matrices is determined on the base of a metric related to the power of received signal layers. An indication is then fed back from the receiver to the transmitter useful to enable the transmitter to select the optimum precoding matrix from the codebook.
摘要:
A method for characterizing interference in a radio communication system including a plurality of user equipment communicating with transceiver stations, includes: determining quantities indicative of interference (attenuation or power) experienced by a transceiver station interfered by interfering user equipment; and exchanging between transceiver stations information based on these quantities and concerning interference from the interfering user equipment. In particular, the user equipment is in communication with respective serving transceiver stations, and exchanging includes sending from the serving transceiver stations to the interfered transceiver stations information concerning interference from user equipment served by the serving transceiver stations and interfering with the interfered transceiver stations. The method further includes grouping, by the serving transceiver station, the interfering user equipment according to a given grouping criterion in order to form groups thereof.
摘要:
Signals (typically in the form of OFDM signals) are transmitted between one or more transmitting antennas and one or more receiving antennas. The signals transmitted are subject to addition of a guard interval before scrambling in the time domain, while the signals received are subject to removal of the guard interval after scrambling in the time domain. Preferably time-scrambling of the OFDM signal being transmitted occurs after IFFT processing and guard interval insertion, while time de-scrambling of the signal being received occurs before both guard interval removal and FFT processing. Optionally, unscrambled pilot symbols (e.g. in the form of a training sequence), can be present at regular intervals inside the signal structure. At the receiver, equalization is carried out preferably in the frequency domain.
摘要:
A method for facilitating broadband multi-carrier wireless transmission, whereby a plurality of transmit antennas are divided into two or more transmit antenna groups of transmit antennas so that the correlation between antennas in each group is minimized, and each group of antennas transmits on a predetermined frequency with a different time periodicity, and each transmit antenna in each group transmits training sequences which are reciprocally time-orthogonal. Each of a plurality of receive antennas receives signals from each transmit antenna group. The signals from each group are separated via a band-pass filter, and a maximum estimation range of a frequency offset estimation algorithm is determined by the group having the shortest time period, and the accuracy of the frequency offset estimation algorithm is determined by the group having the longest time period. The received signal is corrected with the frequency offset.
摘要:
A system for using a predetermined sequence of transmission modes together with power sequencing in order to reduce signaling while improving SNIR levels. Each sequence comprises a vector of transmission modes, where each mode can include a signal constellation, a concatenated channel coding type and rate and, for multiple-input multiple-output systems, one type of matrix modulation. Base transceiver stations can estimate the interference condition for each piece of user equipment and, based on this information, will preferably decide an optimal sequence for each item of user equipment.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for synchronizing in the receiver of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) wireless communication system, and in particular a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) OFDM system. The OFDM transmitter inserts training symbols into the transmission signals, and when the transmission is received a frequency synchronization module develops from them a weighted representation of the received signal from which frequency offset estimates for use in frequency offset compensation may be made.
