A wireless network access point can operate as a closed loop MIMO device when communicating with a station that is operating as an open loop MIMO device. Transmit/receive chains in the access point are calibrated to support aggregate channel reciprocity.
摘要:
A method and a system that multiplies a beamforming matrix by a unitary matrix that does not change the subspace of the beamforming matrix for form a converted matrix having a lower left triangle of zeros. A first column vector having a fewest number of elements of the converted matrix is quantized using a codebook and represented by a first codebook index. A Householder matrix is determined from the quantized first column vector and the converted matrix is multiplied by the Householder matrix. Quantizing, determining a Householder matrix from further column vectors of the converted matrix using a codebook and representing each respective column vector by further corresponding codebook index, and multiplying the converted matrix on the left by the determined Householder matrix for each respective column vector are recursively repeated. The first codebook index and further codebook indices are transmitted to a remote station for use in beamforming.

Methods for contention-based transmission with contention-free feedback for reduced latency in LTE Advanced networks and an enhanced PUCCH are generally disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) may transmit a contention sequence on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) to an enhanced-Node B (eNB) and may concurrently transmit data requesting uplink resources on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) to the eNB. The contention sequence is transmitted on the PUCCH in accordance with a format that is assigned by the eNB. The contention sequence is either randomly selected by the UE or assigned by the eNB. When the contention sequence and data are not successfully received by the eNB, the UE may fall back to a more conventional random access channel (RACH) procedure for uplink resource allocation.

Technology for mapping an enhanced physical downlink control channel to physical resource blocks in a radio frame is disclosed. One method comprises mapping modulated symbols in the ePDCCH to at least one control channel element. The at least one control channel element can be mapped to resource elements located in a plurality of distributed physical resource blocks in a subframe, wherein each resource block is separated by at least one additional resource block in the subframe. The mapping can also be to resource elements distributed in a single resource block in the subframe, wherein the control channel element is mapped to be distributed in frequency and time relative to other mapped resource elements in the single resource block.

In embodiments, an evolved Node B (eNB) of a wireless communication network may configure an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH) physical resource block (PRB) set for a user equipment (UE). The EPDCCH-PRB set may include a plurality of PRB-pairs. The EPDCCH-PRB set may further include a plurality of enhanced resource element groups (EREGs) organized into localized enhanced control channel elements (ECCEs) having EREGs of the same PRB-pair and distributed ECCEs having EREGs of different PRB-pairs. In some embodiments, the eNB may determine a set of distributed EPDCCH candidates for the UE from the EPDCCH-PRB set, wherein the individual distributed EPDCCH candidates include one or more of the distributed ECCEs, and wherein the set of distributed EPDCCH candidates includes at least one EREG from each of the plurality of localized ECCEs. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
摘要:
Apparatuses and methods for channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) configuration in distributed remote radio head (RRH) systems are described. A transmission point selection module can receive a user equipment (UE) signal via a transmission point from a plurality of transmission points sharing a single cell identification. A downlink transmission point can be selected based on the UE signal. The UE can then be configured to report CSI-RS measurements for the selected downlink transmission point.
摘要:
Retransmission techniques are disclosed. These techniques may be used in networks employing contention-based access schemes, such as CSMA. For instance, a device may receive a corrupted packet from a transmitting device, and determine a cause of the corruption. When the determined cause of the corruption is an in-network packet collision, the device allows the transmitting device to send a retransmission of the packet in accordance with a contention-based access scheme. However, when the determined cause of the corruption is other than an in-network packet collision, the device provides retransmission assistance to the transmitting device. This retransmission assistance may include a channel reservation for a retransmission, and/or one or more link adaptation suggestions for the transmitting device.
摘要:
Embodiments of an enhanced Node B (eNB) and method for precoding with reduced quantization error are generally described herein. In some embodiments, first and second precoding-matrix indicator (PMI) reports may be received on an uplink channel and a single subband precoder matrix may be interpolated from precoding matrices indicated by both the PMI reports. Symbols for multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) beamforming may be precoded using the interpolated precoder matrix computed for single subband for a multiple user (MU)-MIMO downlink orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) transmission. In some embodiments, each of the first and second PMI reports includes a PMI associated with a same subband that jointly describes a recommended precoder.

Precoding parameters used for precoding of a source are selected to minimize distortion that would otherwise be induced in the source during encoding and transmission of the source over a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) channel.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe method, apparatus, and system configurations that implement or otherwise use a codebook designed for antennas configured in a circular array. A method includes receiving, by user equipment (UE) from an enhanced node B (eNB) station of a wireless communication network, a Channel State Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) for the UE to perform channel measurements of multiple antennas of the eNB station, wherein the multiple antennas are configured in one or more circular arrays, performing, by the UE, channel measurements of the multiple antennas of the eNB station using the received CSI-RS, and determining, by the UE, a code word based on the channel measurements, the code word being stored in a codebook designed for a circular antenna array. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
