    摘要: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate improved pilot information to MIMO user devices without increasing interference of SISO user devices in a wireless communication environment. A data communication signal can be generated and transmitted at a first power level, and a continuous pilot waveform comprising pilot information related to the data signal can be generated and sent at a second power level below the first transmission power level. Alternatively, a discontinuous pilot waveform can be generated so that it does not overlap with pilot segments in the first waveform, and can be transmitted at the first power level without interfering with the first waveform as received by a SISO user device. A MIMO user device can receive both waveforms, and can employ the pilot waveform to better estimate a MIMO channel for the first waveform.

    摘要: A channel structure has at least two channel sets. Each channel set contains multiple channels and is associated with a specific mapping of the channels to the system resources available for data transmission. Each channel set may be defined based on a channel tree having a hierarchical structure. To achieve intra-cell interference diversity, the channel-to-resource mapping for each channel set is pseudo-random with respect to the mapping for each remaining channel set. In each scheduling interval, terminals are scheduled for transmission on the forward and/or reverse link. The scheduled terminals are assigned channels from the channel sets. Multiple terminals may use the same system resources and their overlapping transmissions may be separated in the spatial domain. For example, beamforming may be performed to send multiple overlapping transmissions on the forward link, and receiver spatial processing may be performed to separate out multiple overlapping transmissions received on the reverse link.

    摘要: A method for allocating resources in a wireless communications environment comprises receiving a mapping between a first hop-port and frequency range, and determining whether to map a second access terminal to a second hop-port that is mapped to at least the same frequency range during a substantially similar instance in time, the determination made as a function of characteristics relating to a first access terminal associated with the first hop-port. The method can further include determining that the first access terminal is a candidate for employing Space-Division Multiple Access (SDMA), and mapping the second-hop port and associating the second access terminal with the second hop-port when the second access terminal is also a candidate for employing SDMA.
