Abstract: Techniques are provided for a radio link quality monitoring method and apparatus wherein a given user equipment device receives a plurality of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex symbols that comprise a plurality of resource elements distributed in time and frequency, and which include reference symbols. The objective of the radio link quality monitoring is to predict the user equipment detection probability of control messages transmitted by the base station. The radio link quality estimation process calculates two average signal to noise ratio values over the complete frequency bandwidth for two assumed control channel formats corresponding to in-sync and out-of-sync conditions. The results of the calculations are then used to deduce the average error probabilities that are compared with predefined thresholds to provide the in-sync/out-of-sync indications.

Abstract: The invention describes a method for predicting the performance of the MLD receiver in MIMO channels. The method is based on the iterative principle where the performance of the MLD decoder is derived from that of an iterative receiver architecture with similar performance. The described Iterative MIMO Effective SNR (IMES) technique maps the performance of each MIMO channel realization into a set of effective SNR values for the different streams. This set of effective SNR values can then be used to provide link adaptation feedback to the transmitter so that the most suitable transmission format can be selected according to the characteristics of the propagation channel. Alternatively, this information can be used to adapt the receiver processing to the channel conditions, thereby making it possible, for example, to reduce the receiver power consumption in good signal conditions.
