摘要:
A compression/decompression method for backhaul communication of a complex-valued radio signal between base stations and the network processing unit, such as a Central Processor of a Coordinated MultiPoint (CoMP) system, significantly reduces backhaul bandwidth. The spatial and temporal correlations of the wireless IQ signal are exploited in order to remove redundancy and substantially reduce signal bandwidth. Feature component signals of significance are extracted through linear transformation to form the radio signal, and are individually quantized, possibly at different bit rates in accordance with their relative importance. The transformation can either be pre-determined or computed in real-time based on the spatial and temporal statistics of the radio signal. In the latter case, the transformation matrix or matrices are also sent over the backhaul in order to allow the radio signal to be reconstructed at the receiving end. Different methods of generating the transformation matrices are proposed.

According to methods and apparatus taught herein, user equipments (UEs) in a wireless communication network are scheduled based on determining received signal power densities for a plurality of UEs to be scheduled, allocating UEs to scheduling intervals based on a sorting of their received signal power densities, and assigning UEs in the same scheduling interval to mirror frequency bands within an available frequency spectrum according to the sorting. For example, UEs to be scheduled are assigned to a given scheduling interval in rank order of their received signal power densities until the scheduling interval is fully allocated. Remaining UEs are assigned in rank order to one or more other scheduling intervals, and the process may be repeated or otherwise carried out on an ongoing basis. Such an allocation scheme tends to minimize both adjacent frequency and mirror frequency interferences between UEs scheduled in the same interval.

Error protection based on a nonlinear code set may be used in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radio communications system. A decoder decodes received MIMO data streams and generates an automatic repeat request (ARQ) message for data units received for the MIMO data streams for each transmission time interval. An encoder codes the ARQ message using a code word from a nonlinear code set. At the data transmitter, which transmits one or more data units in transmission time intervals from two or more MIMO data streams, the ARQ message associated with the transmitted data units is decoded using a code word from the nonlinear code set.

A method and apparatus for generating channel quality information, such as may be used for transmit link adaptation, provide different operating modes, such as a first mode that may be used when propagation channel estimates are not reliable, and a second mode that may be used when the propagation channel estimates are reliable. In one or more embodiments, channel quality information is generated using receiver performance information that characterizes receiver performance in terms of a defined channel quality metric, e.g., supported data rates, for different values of receiver input signal quality over a range of propagation channel realizations. Channel quality information can be generated by selecting channel quality metrics according to receiver input signal quality and a desired probability of meeting a defined performance requirement over a range of propagation channel realizations, or by selecting channel quality metrics according to receiver input signal quality and particularized propagation channel realizations.

摘要:
A wireless communication receiver receiving a multiplexed signal comprising two or more signal streams calculates a received signal quality for the multiplexed signal as a function of stream-specific received signal qualities, determines one or more loss parameters indicative of variations in the stream-specific received signal qualities, and generates quality feedback based on such information. In turn, a transmitter controls the selection of one or more transmission parameters of the multiplexed signal based on the quality feedback, such that its transmit link adaptations account for the losses in received signal quality at the receiver arising from the variations in the stream-specific received signal qualities. The quality feedback may include calculated loss values, or parameter/penalties that permit loss calculation, and the method applies to both code multiplexing and spatial multiplexing.

A wireless communication node (10) dynamically estimates passive intermodulation (PIM) interference coupled into the node's receive path from the transmission of a composite signal through the node's transmit path. The node (10) then cancels the estimated PIM interference in the receive path. In some embodiments, the node dynamically estimates the PIM interference as a function of the composite signal that models PIM interference generation and coupling in the node (10) according to one or more coefficients (30). The coefficients (30) may be determined by transmitting a test signal (34) during a test stage, when the node (10) is not scheduled to receive any signal. Later, when the composite signal (18) is transmitted, the node (10) uses the coefficients (10) to dynamically estimate and cancel the resulting PIM interference.

Method and apparatuses taught herein enable link adaptation feedback to be determined in advance for future transmit intervals, based on one or more data sending units sending indications of future transmit resource allocations, and receiving corresponding link adaptation feedback from data receiving units. Knowledge of the future transmit resource allocations enable individual data sending units to predict interference conditions for the future transmit interval, and thereby compute link adaptation feedback that takes advantage of low-interference conditions. Individual data sending units receive link adaptation feedback for the future transmit interval from the data receiving units they are supporting, and make corresponding link adaptations for the future transmit interval. Such operations are, in one or more embodiments, carried out in a Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), Long Term Evolution LTE), or WiMAX network, wherein the data sending units comprise radio base stations, and the data receiving units comprise wireless communication devices.
