Abstract:
A method (700) includes receiving (701) a receive signal (x[n]) comprising a periodic data signal component (r[n]) and a periodic interference signal component (s[n]); determining (702) an average value by averaging over sub-samples of the receive signal (x[n]), wherein the average value is independent of at least one sub-sample of the receive signal (x[n]) having a same phase as a particular sample ([n]) of the receive signal (x[n]); and determining (703) for the particular sample ([n]) of the receive signal (x[n]) an estimate (ŝ[n]) of the interference signal component (s[n]) based on the average value.
Abstract:
Various embodiments may be generally directed to antenna array weight vector selection techniques for 60 GHz multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications. In some embodiments, using one or more such techniques, a 60 GHz-capable transmitting device may select respective antenna array weight vectors for two or more transmit antenna arrays, and a 60 GHz-capable receiving device may select respective antenna array weight vectors for two or more receive antenna arrays. In various embodiments, in order to obtain information for use in selecting such antenna array weight vectors, the transmitter and receiver may utilize one or more existing beamforming training algorithms defined for 60 GHz single-input single-output (SISO) communications. In some embodiments, for example, the transmitter and receiver may utilize one or more beamforming training algorithms defined in IEEE 802.11ad-2012. The embodiments are not limited in this context.
