摘要:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided for maintaining a time tracking loop (TTL) to increase an overall signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a signal. The signal includes a series of consecutive symbols, received via multiple signal paths with different delays in a subframe. When attempting to decode the signal, only part of a symbol for a signal path may be captured in a fast Fourier transform (FFT) window due to the multiple signal path delays, leading to inter-channel interference (ICI), inter-symbol interference (ISI), and/or power loss. The SNR may be increased by optimizing a FFT window position when decoding the signal. An optimal FFT window position may be based on a subframe type. Moreover, the SNR may be increased by performing a linear operation on samples of the symbol prior to performing the FFT.

User equipment (UE) associated with synchronous networks operate in a synchronous mode while UEs associated with asynchronous networks operate in an asynchronous mode. When operating in a synchronous mode, a UE can significantly improve performance of synchronization signal detection, data decoding, and tracking loop management by using the interference cancellation (IC) techniques that are not available in an asynchronous mode of operation. Obtaining synchronization indicators and determining the synchronization status of the current network by UE is disclosed. The determination may be based on the synchronization indicator, whether detected through signal detection, signal measurements, signal analysis, or the like.

A method to enhance coverage and/or throughput in a heterogeneous wireless network includes detecting interference between a neighboring cell and a serving cell. The method also includes cancelling the interference using an adaptive technique based on whether the interference has colliding Common Reference Signal (CRS) tones.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate precoding signals transmitted over downlink control channels to provide transmit diversity. A dedicated reference signal (DRS) related to a wireless device can additionally be precoded such that the wireless device can determine a precoder or related parameters based at least in part on performing a channel estimate for the precoded DRS signal. The wireless device can utilize the determined precoder or related parameters to decode precoded signals received over downlink control channel resources. Additionally or alternatively, an access point can signal a sequence of precoders to the wireless device. The access point can cycle through the sequence of precoders to precode signals for transmission over downlink control channel resources, and the wireless device can decode the signals based at least in part on similarly cycling through the precoders for received signals.

Providing for improved tracking and correction of timing in wireless communications is disclosed herein. By way of example, a first algorithm can be employed to track timing of a wireless signal, based on one dimension of the signal. Additionally, a second algorithm based on a different dimension of the signal can be employed to verify the timing and reduce errors in timing analysis. Various signal dimensions can be employed for the analysis, including cyclic prefix, frequency, channel impulse response, or the like, or a combination thereof. Additionally, different channels of the wireless signal can also be analyzed by the first algorithm and the second algorithm. Furthermore, the second algorithm can be selected to reduce deficiencies identified in the first algorithm, to improve overall timing analysis, reduce undetected timing errors or false errors, and improve timing correction.
摘要:
Obtaining a timing reference in wireless communication is facilitated when desiring to communicate with a weak serving base station (such as an evolved NodeB) in the presence of a stronger interfering base station. The user equipment (UE) may track a stronger interfering base station's timing, or the UE may track a timing that is derived by a composite power delay profile (PDP) from multiple base stations. The composite PDP may be constructed by adjusting individual base station PDPs according to a weighting scheme. The timing obtained in such a manner may be used for estimation of the channel of the interfering base station and cancelling interfering signals from the base station. It may also be used to estimate the channel of the serving base station after adding a backoff. The UE may track a stronger interfering base station's frequency, or the UE may track a composite frequency.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide for signaling to expanded capability UEs that may limit the interruption of legacy UEs. According to certain aspects, a base station (e.g., an eNB) may generate and transmit one or more signals containing information that is recognizable by at least one expanded capability UE and identified as invalid by at least one legacy UE. An expanded capability UE may receive such signaling and identifying supplemental information in the signaling, while a legacy UE may regard the signaling as invalid.
摘要:
Various aspects disclosed are directed to improvements to channel estimation through more efficient cancelation of neighboring common reference signals (CRS). Cancelation of CRS from other cells allows the user equipment (UE) a better opportunity for accurately detecting the reference signal of the current cell. Alternative aspects have a recursive element that uses previous estimates as the basis for the current channel estimate. The various aspects of the present disclosure generally have two alternative embodiments: (1) initializing the channel estimation for all cells with a previous channel estimate and cancellation of reference signals of non-target cells to accurately update channel estimate of the target cell; and (2) initializing the channel estimate for all cells with a previous channel estimate and cancelation of reference signals of all cells to accurately estimate residual channel estimate of the target cell and update its channel estimate.

摘要:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate controlling interference in a heterogeneous wireless communication environment. A Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) transmission from an interfering base station can be punctured based upon a puncturing pattern as a function of a cell identifier (ID) and a transmit time. Puncturing can be effectuated by applying power control. Thus, a punctured symbol or subframe can have a reduced transmit power or a transmit power set to zero. Further, the puncturing pattern can be defined on a subframe basis or on a symbol basis.
