    摘要: The required bitrate for reporting channel state information from a network transceiver to the network is dramatically reduced, while maintaining fidelity of channel estimates, by exploiting prior channel estimates and the time correlation of channel response. For a selected set of sub-carriers, the transceiver estimates channel frequency response from pilot signals. The transceiver also predicts the frequency response for each selected sub-carrier, by multiplying a state vector comprising prior frequency response estimate and a coefficient vector comprising linear predictive coefficients. The predicted frequency response is subtracted from the estimated frequency response, and the prediction error is quantized and transmitted to the network. The network maintains a corresponding state vector and predictive coefficient vector, and also predicts a frequency response for each selected sub-carrier. The received prediction error is inverse quantized and subtracted from the predicted frequency response to yield a frequency response corresponding to that estimated at the transceiver.

    摘要: Processing of loop-back information returned by one or more mobile stations that are served by a wireless communication network permits the network to compensate its transmit signals for increased transmission efficiency and reduced signal interference at the mobile stations. Generally, the network forms one or more transmit signals as a combination of different signals intended for the different mobile stations, and remembers transmit information associated with these transmit signals. The mobile stations return loop-back signals to the network, which determines transmit signal compensation information by comparing loop-back information to memorized information. The mobile stations may loop-back samples from composite received signals, from processed received signal samples, or loop-back estimates. In the first case, processing at the network involves compensating the combined transmit signals at the transmit modulation rate, while the second case involves symbol rate processing of the individual information streams intended for the different mobile stations.

    摘要: A frequency domain representation of a whitening filter is made to depend on essentially one unknown, namely, a scaling factor that is based on an estimated ratio of total base station power to the power spectral density (PSD) of inter-cell interference plus noise. In turn, that scaling factor can be computed based on the modeling terms used in a parametric model of the impairment correlations for a received communication signal. Preferably, the model comprises an interference impairment term scaled by a first model fitting parameter, and a noise impairment term scaled by a second model fitting parameter. Further, the scaling factor can be computed by directly estimating total base station transmit power and the PSD of inter-cell interference plus noise. In any case, the whitening filter can be used in whitening a received communication signal in conjunction with channel equalization processing or RAKE receiver processing, for example.
