In accordance with a method for identifying a preamble sequence and for estimating an integer carrier frequency offset, a signal that comprises a preamble sequence from a set of possible preamble sequences is received. A reduced set of integer carrier frequency offset (CFO) candidates may be determined. Cross-correlation operations may be performed with respect to the received signal and multiple candidate transmitted signals. Each candidate transmitted signal may include one of the set of possible preamble sequences. In addition, each candidate transmitted signal may correspond to one of the reduced set of integer CFO candidates. Multiple correlation values may be determined as a result of the cross-correlation operations. The correlation values may be used to identify the preamble sequence and to estimate the integer CFO.

Certain embodiments of the present disclosure allow a receiver to utilize both a minimum mean square error (MMSE) detection algorithm and a maximum likelihood (ML) detection algorithm. The receiver may control, based on various conditions, a mode selection signal to select between output generated with the MMSE detection algorithm and the ML detection algorithm. By sharing logical components, certain embodiments may allow a receiver to implement both ML and MMSE detection algorithms with minimal computational overhead when compared to implementing a single one of the decoding algorithms.

Certain embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods for mitigating interference of signals transmitted to a mobile station (MS) from a plurality of neighboring base stations. By applying a proposed spatio-frequency modulation (SFM) technique at a serving base station (BS) and at each interfering BS, a co-channel interference (CCI) from interfering base stations can be efficiently mitigated at the MS and signal transmitted from the serving BS can be more accurately decoded.

A method and apparatus for decoding encoded data bits of a wireless communication transmission are provided. A set of a-priori bit values corresponding to known bit values of the encoded data bits may be generated. Decoding paths that correspond to decoded data bits that are inconsistent with the a-priori bit values may be removed from the possible decoding paths to consider, and decoding the encoded data bits by selecting a decoding path from remaining decoding paths of the possible decoding paths that were not removed. Multiple hypotheses, each corresponding to a different set of a-prior bit values may be evaluated, with the decoded data for a hypothesis selected based on the evaluation output for further processing.

In an apparatus and method for providing transmit (Tx) diversity in a multi-antenna wireless communication system, Tx diversity is provided by estimating a channel to each antenna using a signal received from the antenna, estimating channel state information (CSI) from the first Tx node to each antenna using the estimated channel, and determining a signal to be transmitted to the antennas in different methods according to whether phase compensation is required for information to be transmitted using the estimated channel and the CSI.

Certain embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for approximate computation of l2 norms as a part of the maximum likelihood (ML) detection: tri-maxmin, maxsum and sortsum algorithms. The proposed approximation schemes show better accuracy than conventional approximation schemes—the abssum and maxmin algorithms, while the computational complexity is very similar. The error rate performance of the ML detection that utilizes proposed norm-approximation techniques are very close to the reference ML detection with exact calculation of l2 norms, while the computational complexity is significantly smaller.

Aspects of the disclosure provide unbiased channel equalization applied in a MIMO OFDM system with spatial multiplexing. According to certain embodiments, a MMSE receiver can be implemented with the QR decomposition (QRMMSE detection) instead of direct inversion of channel matrix by exploiting an augmented channel matrix. A simple and efficient bias removal technique is presented herein, whereby unbiased QRMMSE equalization may provide identical detection accuracy as a conventional unbiased MMSE approach. For certain embodiments, multiple access interference may be further reduced if the VBLAST version of the unbiased QRMMSE detection is applied.

Certain embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and an apparatus for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction of a transmission signal in a single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) system. The method may utilize a permutation of a time domain signal, and/or a permutation of a frequency domain signal or a permutation of a signal transformed by a unitary matrix. The apparatus may include an M-point DFT or some other M×M unitary matrix, N-point IDFT, interpolation and frequency conversion units, and a pair of possibly different permutation matrices of size M×M, where M can be less or equal than N.
