摘要:
A Hybrid Automatic Retransmission Request (H-ARQ) technique is provided for Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) systems. The technique changes the basis (V) upon retransmission, which helps reduce the error probability upon retransmission. This basis hopping technique provides for improved performance gain without significant increase in design complexity. In one embodiment, communication device (100) includes a receiver section (114) for receiving an acknowledgment (ACK) or a non-acknowledgment (NACK) signal in response to information transmitted by the transmitter section of the communication device. If a NACK is received, a new basis is selected from a set of basis stored in a basis set unit (110). The new basis that is selected is then used by a linear transformation unit (106) in the retransmission of the information.

Interference rejection (85) can be applied to a wireless communication signal with reduced computational complexity by producing from a sample vector (y) a plurality of vectors (w) that are smaller than the sample vector. The interference rejection operation can then be applied to each of the smaller vectors individually to decide communication symbols represented by the sample vector.

摘要:
A method for providing closed-loop transmit precoding between a transmitter and a receiver, includes defining a codebook that includes a set of unitary rotation matrices. The receiver determines which preceding rotation matrix from the codebook should be used for each sub-carrier that has been received. The receiver sends an index to the transmitter, where the transmitter reconstructs the precoding rotation matrix using the index, and precodes the symbols to be transmitted using the preceding rotation matrix. An apparatus that employs this closed-loop technique is also described.
摘要:
In a wireless MIMO system, a multimode detector selects detection mode by channel estimation: ill-conditioned channels trigger use of high performance detection, whereas well-behaved channels lead to low complexity detection. Detection modes typically include maximum likelihood, minimum mean squared error, zero forcing, and so forth.
