摘要:
A computer implemented method selects antennas in a multiple-input, multiple-output wireless local area network that includes multiple stations, and each station includes a set of antennas. Multiple consecutively transmitted sounding packets are received in a station. Each sounding packet corresponds to a different subset of the set of antennas. A channel matrix is estimated from the multiple consecutively transmitted sounding packets. A frame including a high throughput (HT) control field is sent to initiate a selecting of antennas, and a subset of antennas is selected according to the channel matrix.

A method and system eliminate spectral lines and shapes the power spectral density of an ultra bandwidth signal. First, a train of non-periodic pulses is generated. The non-periodic pulses are then modulated in time according to uncorrelated symbols. A polarity of the non-periodic pulses is inverted randomly before transmitting the non-periodic pulses as an ultra wide bandwidth signal to eliminate spectral lines and to shape a power spectral density of the ultra wide bandwidth signal.

A method and system for communicating information in a cooperative relay network of wireless nodes. The wireless nodes including a source, a set of relays, and a destination. Channel state information for each channel between a particular relay of the set of relays and the destination is estimated. A subset of the relays is selected based on the channel state information. The channel state information is fed back to the subset of relays. The source node can then broadcasting data packets from the source to the subset of relays, and the subset of relays forward coherently the data packets from the subset of relays to the destination using beamforming based on the channel state information, while adjusting power to minimize a total energy consumption in the network.

A method switches a mobile station (MS) from a current group to a new group in a Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) including a base station (BS). The BS operates in full duplex mode and the MS operates in half-duplex mode, such that the WiMAX network operates in semi-duplex mode. The MS receives from the BS, while the MS is in the current group, a group switching request in a downlink (DL) sub-frame. The MS also receives structural information regarding frames of the new group. The MS switches from the current group to the new group after receiving the structural information.

A method selects antennas in an OFDMA network. A channel state of a downlink is measured using a downlink subframe received in a mobile station from a base station. A channel state of an uplink is measured using an uplink subframe received in the base station from the mobile station. Next, the method compares the channel states to determine whether the downlink and the uplink are reciprocal or not. The mobile station can perform receive antenna selection based on the quality of the downlink channel state. The mobile station can also perform transmit antenna selection when instructed by the base station.

A method minimizes a rate for feeding back channel state information from a receiver to a transmitter in a multi-input, multi-output communications systems. A temporal autocorrelation function of the channel between the transmitter and the receiver is determined. A spatial covariance information is estimated of the channel. Then, the minimum rate for feeding back channel state information from the receiver to the transmitter is based on actual channel state information and the estimated spatial covariance information and the temporal autocorrelation function.

A method suppresses interference in a time-frequency hopped, ultra wide bandwidth system. Signals corresponding to a transmitted symbol are received. The received signals are frequency demodulated, and a coefficient vector w that minimizes a cost function C ( w n ) = 1 ∑ k λ n - k ∑ k λ n - k w n H x k - c k 2 , is estimated, where λ is a weighting factor between 0, x is a vector representing the received signals, H is a frequency response of a channel used to transmit the symbol, and c is a known training symbol. A coefficient vector, ŵn={circumflex over (R)}n−1{circumflex over (d)}n, is determined, where a correlation matrix for the received signals is R ^ n = 1 ∑ k λ n - k ∑ k λ n - k x k x k H , and an estimate of a crosscorrelation is d ^ n = 1 ∑ k λ n - k ∑ k λ n - k x k c k * . The received signals are then combined according to c ^ n = 1 C ( w ^ n ) w ^ n H x n = 1 1 - w ^ n H d ^ n w ^ n H x n .

A single wireless slave node may be in a timing virtual network (TVN) with neighboring wireless slave nodes. The single wireless slave node may store information indicative of the identity, link propagation delay, and channel signature of each of its neighboring wireless slave nodes. The single wireless slave node may repeatedly update a timing estimate based on the stored information and by performing a physical layer fast reference signal broadcast transmission and reception.
