摘要:
A simple block coding arrangement is created with symbols transmitted over a plurality of transmit channels, in connection with coding that comprises only of simple arithmetic operations, such as negation and conjugation. The diversity created by the transmitter utilizes space diversity and either time or frequency diversity. Space diversity is effected by redundantly transmitting over a plurality of antennas, time diversity is effected by redundantly transmitting at different times, and frequency diversity is effected by redundantly transmitting at different frequencies. Illustratively, using two transmit antennas and a single receive antenna, one of the disclosed embodiments provides the same diversity gain as the maximal-ratio receiver combining (MRRC) scheme with one transmit antenna and two receive antennas. The principles of this invention are applicable to arrangements with more than two antennas, and an illustrative embodiment is disclosed using the same space block code with two transmit and two receive antennas.

A composite beamforming technique is provided wherein a first communication device has a plurality of antennas and the second communication has a plurality of antennas. When the first communication device transmits to the second communication device, the transmit signal is multiplied by a transmit weight vector for transmission by each the plurality of antennas and the transmit signals are received by the plurality of antennas at the second communication device. The second communication device determines the best receive weight vector for the its antennas, and from that vector, derives a suitable transmit weight vector for transmission on the plurality of antennas back to the first communication device. Several techniques are provided to determine the optimum transmit weight vector and receive weight vector for communication between the first and second communication devices so that there is effectively joint or composite beamforming between the communication devices.

The architecture of the present invention is premised upon an algorithm involving integration of oblique correlators and RAKE filtering to null interference from other spread spectrum signals. The oblique correlator is based on the non-orthogonal projections that are optimum for nulling structured signals such as spread spectrum signals. In one configuration, space spanned by a first signal associated with a first emitter is orthogonal to an interference space associated with one or more signals of one or more other emitters. RAKE filtering is used to rapidly steer the beam of the multi-antenna system and to mitigate the effects of multipath.

An apparatus and method for receiving a signal in a MIMO communication system are provided. In the signal receiving method, a first received signal received at each of the receive antennas is equalized in a predetermined first method. Each of the equalized transmit antenna signals is despread with a plurality of spreading codes used in a transmitter. The strongest transmit antenna signal is detected among the despread transmit antenna signals, and decoded in a predetermined second method, for error verification. The verified strongest transmit antenna signal is reproduced as an interference signal. A second received signal is generated by subtracting the interference signal from the first received signal and equalized in the first method. The above operation is repeated on the equalized transmit antenna signals except the strongest transmit antenna signal.

In the reception of a CDMA signal, the receiving unit performs a simplified process of linear equalization that eliminates the need for inverting the correlation matrix. For the single antenna reception case, the correlation matrix is approximated to a good degree by a circulation matrix that is diagonalized by FFT operations, thus substituting two FFTs and one IFFT having a complexity of O(3/2 LF log LF) for the direct matrix inversion having a complexity of O(LF3). The extension of this method uses a multiple antenna reception system with oversampling.

摘要:
A receiver for the third-generation (“3G”) CDMA wireless system is disclosed. The receiver is adapted to mitigate the correlated interference by adaptive antenna process which will maximize the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio. After the mitigation of correlated interference from first step space process, the second step is to counter fading with MRC which is optimum after the mitigation of correlated interference. After these first two steps of interference mitigation by adaptive antennas and fading compensation through MRC, the decision signal for the first stage of MPIC will have the strongest desired part and least interference compared to any MPIC available. As can be appreciated, the first stage BER of the present receiver will be the lowest. Then, this low BER will result in a more accurate MAI regeneration, which will further cause a lower BER for the next stage and any subsequent stages. Therefore, the BER of the receiver of the present invention is more likely to converge to the BER of a single user, i.e. MAI-free, faster than those in the conventional systems. In other words, for a given BER requirement, the receiver of the present invention will take the least number of iterations to achieve.

A radio communication apparatus using an array antenna has a plurality of reception branches for conveying reception signals received at the antenna element of the array antenna, and a calibration branch for selecting one of the plurality of reception branches and conveying the reception signal. Channel estimations are made respectively on the reception-branch signals and a calibration-branch signal. RAKE composition is made on the channel estimation values, a result of which is used to detect amplitude and phase deviations on the reception branch thereby carrying out a correction.
摘要:
A wireless receiver for receiving an incoming signal having spatial and temporal diversity. The receiver uses noise-based prescaling of multiple receiver chain signals for optimally combining the receiver chain signals in a composite equalized signal and uses noise-based time-varying postscaling the equalized signal. The receiver determines noise-based scale factors by comparing signal symbols to dispersed replica symbols of a training sequence for the incoming signal.
