A method of uplink resource allocation is disclosed. The method includes computing a set of utilities for each of a finite set of transmission modes with a processor across a plurality of user devices, each having multiple transmit antennas, and iteratively allocating uplink resource blocks (RBs) and transmission modes to the plurality of user devices until all users have been allocated or no allocation is found, by selecting a mode that has a highest incremental utility sum for each user across one or more RBs, determining which user has the highest incremental utility sum, allocating the mode and RBs associated with the highest incremental utility sum to the user, and removing the allocated user from consideration. Other apparatuses, systems, and methods also are disclosed.

A method includes controlling communications by users across a network with a predetermined capacity for desired communication flows for all the users and opportunistically aligning advertisement delivery to the users when an overload condition in the network occurs so that users perceive the disruption in communication service by the network as a minimum.

A system and method for providing at least one transmit precoder includes transforming at least one of a weighted sum-rate and max-min rate objective into two or more sub-problems by introducing at least one slack variable. The two or more sub-problems are iterated on a computer readable storage medium to provide at least one transmit precoder for each transmitter.

Methods and systems for determining attributes of communication channels of MU-MIMO users in an OFDMA system are disclosed. One method comprises receiving from a base station, for at least one sub-band of contiguous sub-carriers, an indication of an estimate of or an upper-bound on a total number of streams that are co-scheduled by the base station on the at least one sub-band. In addition, the method further comprises determining one or more signal quality measures for the at-least one sub-band based on the estimate of or the upper-bound on the total number of streams that are scheduled by the base station on the at least one sub-band. Moreover, an indication of the one or more signal quality measures is transmitted to the base station.

Systems and methods for conveying wireless transmission allocation information are disclosed. In accordance with one method, an index indicating selected data stream parameters is received. In addition, an indication of a number of transmit antennas at a transmitter from which the data stream is transmitted is also received. Further, the selected parameters are determined from the index based on the number of transmit antennas at the transmitter. Moreover, data signals are received and processed with a processor in accordance with the selected data stream parameters.

A method for user pairing and resource allocation, includes performing a multiuser multi-input-multi-output (MU-MIMO) user pairing process to maximize an objective metric without common rank restriction; performing a rank balancing process to determine a uniform transmission user rank along all allocated resource blocks for each user; and with the uniform transmission user rank fixed for all the users, determining optimal user pairing and allocation for each of the resource blocks for each user.

Methods and systems that enable the determination of accurate channel estimates by measuring only power values of pilot signal transmissions at a receiver are described. Various measurement procedures that are based on average power measurements or short term, per-symbol measurements can be employed. Furthermore, procedures utilizing adaptive pilots generated with receiver feedback and deterministic pilots generated without receiver feedback are also described.

Beamforming systems and methods are disclosed. In accordance with one method, indications of channel matrices for a plurality of receivers are obtained. Further, a beamformer matrix is formulated as a linear combination of columns of hermitians of the channel matrices. In addition, coefficients of the hermitians in the linear combination are determined to compute the beamformer matrix such that a lowest reception rate among reception rates of each of the receivers is maximized. Data signals are transmitted to the receivers by applying the computed beamformer matrix to data symbols to maximize the lowest reception rate.

Systems and methods for conveying and determining modulations schemes employed by co-scheduled users are disclosed. In addition, methods and systems for designing signaling schemes that convey such information are also disclosed. In accordance with one method, an index is received and a table of indices in which the received index denotes a plurality of different sets of modulation schemes is referenced. Further, one or more modulation schemes of at least one co-scheduled user is determined based on the referencing. In addition, data signals are received and are processed by utilizing the one or more modulation schemes.
