摘要:
The required bitrate for reporting channel state information from a network transceiver to the network is dramatically reduced, while maintaining fidelity of channel estimates, by exploiting prior channel estimates and the time correlation of channel response. For a selected set of sub-carriers, the transceiver estimates channel frequency response from pilot signals. The transceiver also predicts the frequency response for each selected sub-carrier, by multiplying a state vector comprising prior frequency response estimate and a coefficient vector comprising linear predictive coefficients. The predicted frequency response is subtracted from the estimated frequency response, and the prediction error is quantized and transmitted to the network. The network maintains a corresponding state vector and predictive coefficient vector, and also predicts a frequency response for each selected sub-carrier. The received prediction error is inverse quantized and subtracted from the predicted frequency response to yield a frequency response corresponding to that estimated at the transceiver.
摘要:
Accurate downlink channel estimates are calculated based on infrequently transmitted Channel State Information (CSI) feedback data from a UE 20. A plurality of non-uniformly spaced digital CSI feedback samples, representing the frequency response of a downlink communication channel, is received from the UE. The received CSI feedback samples are demodulated and inverse quantized. A time domain tap delay channel model is generated from the inverse quantized CSI feedback samples. The time domain tap delay channel model may be frequency-transformed to obtain a reconstructed frequency response of the downlink communication channel in the frequency domain. Alternatively, channel delays may be estimated based on prior delays and/or known references signals transmitted on the uplink. Channel estimates between CSI reporting instances may be predicted, such as by a sample & hold or a linear predictor. The delays may be presumed fixed, and Kalman filter coefficients evolved over time.

A receiver and a method are described herein for reducing an amount of channel state information related to a transmit channel correlation matrix ΦTX that is feedback to a transmitter. In addition, to a transmitter and a method are described herein for reconstructing the transmit channel correlation matrix φTX using the reduced channel state feedback information received from the receiver.

摘要:
A UE in a wireless communication network transmits succinct, direct channel state information to the network, enabling coordinated multipoint calculations such as joint processing, without substantially increasing uplink overhead. The UE receives and processes reference symbols over a set of non-uniformly spaced sub-carriers, selected according to a scheme synchronized to the network. The frequency response for each selected sub-carrier is estimated conventionally, and the results quantized and transmitted to the network on an uplink control channel. The non-uniform sub-carrier selection may be synchronized to the network in a variety of ways.
