    摘要: Closed loop MIMO FDD schemes can offer significant performance gains for OFDM based wireless communication systems over open loop MIMO schemes. However, the pre-coding weights (eigenvectors) on each of the frequency bands need to be updated and this adds extra overhead. The number of adjacent frequency fingers which can use the same pre-coding weights is governed by the coherence bandwidth of the eigen spatial modes. The receiver uses the average r.m.s. delay spread of the SISO channels as an indicator to the eigen coherence bandwidth, rather than explicitly calculating the eigen coherence bandwidth itself. This technique can be applied to TDD schemes as well, where the channel estimation is done with the reverse link, eliminating the need for feedback. The TDD transmitter can estimate the eigen coherence bandwidth on the basis of average r.m.s. delay spread, which saves computational effort.

    摘要: A wireless communication method in a MIMO OFDMA system in which users in each of multiple adjacent cells are served by a base station of the cell, the base station having a transmission link to each user in the cell on a respective MIMO channel. The method involves the base station (BSA) of a first cell carrying out the following steps: receiving, from a base station (BSB) or user (B) of another cell, one or more requests for reduction of interference which it is causing to users in that other cell; identifying a rank deficient MIMO channel (HA) among its transmission links to users in the first cell to select a MIMO channel to be made the subject of zero forcing; and applying zero forcing to transmissions on the selected MIMO channel (HA) to reduce interference experienced by at least one user (B) in the other cell. A rank deficient MIMO channel is chosen to minimize the reduction of overall data capacity due to the zero forcing; it is found by examining eigenvalues of the channel matrix and calculating ratios thereof. In addition, correlation between the selected channel (HA) and the channel (HB) to the user (B) in the other cell is checked and if they are correlated by more than a threshold amount, another channel in the first cell is selected instead.

    摘要: A cell edge coverage hole detection method for a cellular wireless communication system such as an LTE system. A coverage hole in a cell edge region will cause radio link failures, RLF, which are difficult to distinguish from those caused by handover issues. The method collects (S10) RLF reports along with related connectivity patterns and location reports, and identifies (S20) a drive route across a cell edge at which radio link failures are occurring. By correlating (S30) the measurement reports from users travelling in both directions along the route, it can be judged (S40) whether a pattern specific to a coverage hole can be identified, distinguishing coverage holes (S60) from radio link failure occurring as a result of handover failure (S50).
