摘要:
A method is performed by an intermediate device in a wireless network. The method includes estimating a first hop channel state based on a transmission originating from a first device. The method further includes estimating an end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio base on a transmission associated with a second device. The method also includes adapting a filter or an amplifier of the intermediate device based on the first hop channel state and the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio.
摘要:
Uplink overhead is significantly reduced in a MU-COMP wireless communication network by exploiting the dissimilarity of received signal strength in signals transmitted by geographically distributed transmit antennas, as seen by receiving UEs. Each UE calculates a quantized normalization measure of channel elements for a channel weakly received from a first transmitter to that for a channel strongly received from a second transmitter. The quantized normalization measure may be modeled as a ratio of complex Gaussian variables, and quantized in phase and amplitude by making simplifying assumptions. The ratios are quantized, and transmitted to the network using far fewer bits than would be required to transmit the full channel state information. The network uses the quantized normalization measures to set the transmitter weights.
摘要:
User grouping is employed to tradeoff the COMP forward link capacity and required reverse link feedback, which makes the design of COMP practical and flexible. A channel element, such as the large scale fading, is measured for each distributed transmitter and UE pair based on reference signals, and the network receives this information as feedback in the reverse link. The COMP determines a maximum cross interference level αreq that is affordable, based on the available reverse link capacity for feedback. If this maximum cross interference level αreq is exceeded, geographically separate UEs are divided into as few groups as possible, with UEs within each group separated, and the groups are allocated different time/frequency resource blocks. The grouping is done with the constraint that the cross interference does not exceed αreq.

摘要:
The present application discloses systems and methods for reducing output-to-input feedback signal interference caused by a forwarding node that is configured to forward information received from a transmitter. In some embodiments, this output-to-input feedback signal interference is compensated for by the transmitter. For example, the transmitter is configured such that the signal that is transmitted by transmitter to the forwarding node includes both (1) a primary signal or ‘desired’ signal (e.g., the signal that is intended for a receiving device) and (2) a filtered version of the primary signal. The filter that produces the filtered version of the primary signal is configured (e.g., the filter's filter weights are adapted) such that the filtered version of the primary signal cancels or reduces the undesired output-to-input feedback signal.

摘要:
Improved amplify-and-forward relaying in a communication network is described, including an example network of multiple single-antenna mobile stations, a multi-antenna relay station, and a multi-antenna base station. Bi-directional communication with improved transmission efficiency is enabled by suitable transmit/receive processing at the relay station without drawbacks of current relaying techniques. Linear transmit and receive processing matrices are disclosed, and it is shown that the numbers of antennas at the relay station and the base station can be substantially the same without reducing network capacity, closely matching the performance for low and high signal to noise ratios of current techniques that require the relay station to have twice as many antennas as the base station.
摘要:
A distributed antenna system based wireless cellular communication system with transmit side linear interference cancellation is described. In this system the effective channel elements (I) and (II) are estimated and reported by mobile station MS1 and MS2, respectively, to a transmit weight matrix processing apparatus. Processing apparatus uses the effective complex channel matrix (one row reported by each mobile station) to differentially update the transmit weight matrix used for the transmit side linear interference cancellation.
