摘要:
A MIMO OFDM system includes a plurality of space-time encoders for encoding respective data blocks with independent space-time codes. The transformed data block signals are transmitted by a plurality of transmit antennas and received by a plurality of receive antennas. The received data is pre-whitened prior to maximum likelihood detection. In one embodiment, successive interference cancellation can be sued to improve system performance. Channel parameter estimation can be enhanced by weighting the channel impulse response estimates based upon a deviation from average.

An efficient method for providing both dedicated and simulcast services over a common wireless infrastructure is described. The services can be available to a single terminal as well as to a multiplicity of terminals simultaneously. The method uses time division multiplexing and orthogonal frequency division multiple access for simulcasting information and transmitting dedicated message information from a plurality of base stations forming a cellular pattern over the same wireless frequency channel. The method comprises the steps of constructing frames for transmission by the plurality of base stations comprising control information, simulcast information and dedicated message information within predetermined time slots of the frames and allocating the simulcast information and the dedicated message information to time slots of the same frame predetermined by the control information of the frame. The underlying modulation technology used is OFDM and thereby the channel delay-dispersion is minimized.

Proposed is a method for reducing interference in a frequency hopping wireless communications system. In one embodiment of the present invention, a base station and a terminal station each using an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technique to simultaneously measure an interference level for each system frequency and to enable high speed frequency hop pattern changes which can follow changes in desired and interfering signal levels due to changes in co-channel interference or shadow fading. The terminal station interference level measurement values are then transmitted to the base station. Next, the base station identifies each frequency hop pattern currently in use by each terminal station communicating with that base station. The base station then uses both the base station interference level measurements and the terminal station interference level measurements to identify each frequency hop pattern in which at least one of the current system frequencies should be replaced with a system frequency having a lower interference level. Next, the base station replaces no more than a predetermined number of the current system frequencies within the identified frequency hop pattern(s). The above steps are executed at each base station within the system while ensuring that nearby interfering base stations do not replace frequencies at the same time.

An improved OFDM receiver is realized by employing a simplified delay function for the transmissions channel. The simplified delay function yields a simplified frequency-domain correlation that is applied to develop an Eigen matrix U that is used in developing estimates of the channels. Those channel estimates are used in the receiver to develop the output signals.

A TDMA wireless communication system adjusts the power control target and transmission power based upon link quality to enhance voice capacity. The power can be adjusted in response to the average SNIR and number of decoding errors in a link quality reporting period. The power control target can be increased and decreased in discrete intervals after evaluating the number of decoding errors in the reporting period. The transmission power can be adjusted towards the new power control target based upon the average SNIR.

A system provides transmit diversity with feedback to enhance the reception of communication signals at a wireless communication terminal. Multiple antennae are provided at the base station. The multiple antennae transmit multi-carrier information signals such as OFDM including pilot tones. The wireless communication terminal receives the pilot tones and performs processing on those tones to detect the relationship between the information signals transmitted from the various antennae of the base station. A feedback signal, based on the comparison of the pilot tones communicates back to the base station information about the channels of the respective transmit antennae to the terminals. The base station modifies the transmission processing associated with the various transmit antennae based upon the feedback signal. The modified processing improves the reception of the information signals at the wireless communication terminal.

A method and system for controlling media access in which a paging message is transmitted from a base station to a wireless station when a data packet is received for downlink transmission to the wireless station. The base station is one of a plurality of base stations and the wireless station is associated with the base station. In response to the paging message, a level of each of a plurality of pilot frequency signals is detected at the wireless station. Each pilot frequency corresponds to a downlink traffic channel and is transmitted by base stations to which the downlink traffic channel is assigned. The wireless station generates a list of preferred traffic channels based on a priority order of traffic channels and on detected levels of the pilot frequency signals, and transmits the list to the associated base station. A downlink traffic channel is assigned for downlink transmitting the received data packet to the wireless station based on the list of preferred traffic channels and updates a channel priority order list at the base station.

A decision feedback equalizer receiver that assigns a number F of feedforward filter taps and optimizes digital receiver performance in multipath channel environments, where F is an integer less than a memory length of a radio channel. The feedforward filter taps are assigned to delay times corresponding to an optimum burst timing parameter delay time, d(0), and to F-1 time delays based on "tap SNR indices." For an Uncorrelated Inter-Symbol-Interference (UISI) case, the F-1 time delays are the first F-1 rank ordered time delays are selected as the feedforward tap delay times. For a general case, a combination of the UISI case and an analytical two cluster case is obtained by selecting the first F-2 rank ordered time delays and a 2D time delay, where D is the delay time corresponding to the largest estimated tap SNR index.
