摘要:
An adaptive multicarrier wireless communication system, apparatus and associated methods are generally disclosed herein. In at least one embodiment, channel state information is used to perform bit loading and power allocation within a multicarrier system. In an example technique, after active subcarriers have been identified for a multicarrier channel and an initial power distribution has been made, a subset of active subcarriers may be found that exceed a channel quality performance threshold. Excess power may then be identified by determining how much power could be reduced in the identified subcarriers so that they still meet, but do not exceed the channel quality performance threshold. In one possible approach, the excess power may be re-allocated to other subcarrier subsets.

Briefly, an adaptive transmitted power control scheme, which may be used in stations of a communication system, for example, a wireless communication system. The scheme may allocate transmission power to a communication station based on multiplying each of at least one transmitted subcarrier complex number by a corresponding subcarrier weight. Additionally, a detection scheme may detect whether a transmitted power control scheme according to an embodiment of the invention is used by stations of the communication system. The allocation of transmission power may be also used to transmit additional service information through channels.

A data rate is selected for subcarriers of each frequency and spatial channel of a slowly varying frequency selective multicarrier channel to provide uniform bit loading (UBL) for faster link adaptation. Signal to noise ratios (SNRs) for subcarriers of the multicarrier communication channel may be calculated from channel state information and a transmit power level. A throughput may be estimated for the data rates from the SNRs and one of the data rates may be selected based on the estimated throughputs.

A transmitter may include a set of stream groups, each including two or more streams producing a set of orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) stream-symbols and a coding unit interleaving the stream-symbols into an interleaved signal. An input bit multiplexer may route an input data signal to be divided among each of the streams. An inverse fast Fourier transform unit may operate on a combined signal formed from interleaving the interleaved signals from each stream group. Each stream may include for example a baseband signal processor producing the OFDM stream-symbols.

In a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multicarrier communication system, a mobile station sends a quantized time-domain representation of the channel transfer function to a base station for use by the base station in generating beamforming coefficients for use in subsequent transmissions to the mobile station. In some embodiments, the quantized time-domain representation of the channel transfer function may be generated from selected most significant rays of an initial estimated sampled channel impulse response. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

A MIMO transmitter and method for transmitting a group of sequential OFDM symbols on a downlink channel using a plurality of antennas is disclosed herein. Groups of OFDM subcarriers are individually modulated in accordance with spatial-frequency subcarrier modulation assignments to generate groups of symbol-modulated subcarriers, corresponding symbol-modulated subcarriers are combined for transmission on each of a plurality of spatial channels, and beamforming is performed on the combined symbol-modulated subcarriers for transmission over the spatial channels. The channel comprises a plurality of the groups of the OFDM subcarriers and the OFDM subcarriers within each group of subcarriers and within each group of sequential OFDM symbols have the same spatial-frequency subcarrier modulation assignments. The spatial-frequency subcarrier modulation assignments for each group are determined based on feedback by a receiver, which is determined from spatial channel characteristics of the spatial channels.

Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, bit and power loading may be utilized to select a modulation rate and subcarrier power scaling based on channel state information. As a result, a higher data rate may be utilized for a given signal-to-noise ratio while maintaining a constant bit error rate.

Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a channel state information packet is encoded by a receiver side device and is fed back to the transmitter side device. The transmitter side device decodes the channel state information packet to extract an estimate of the channel response function.
