摘要:
A multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme uses precoding and feedback in a wireless communication system including a transmitter and a receiver. The system may use either a single codeword (SCW) or a double codeword (DCW). The precoding scheme is based on transmit beamforming (TxBF). Combined differential and non-differential feedback with periodic resetting is considered.

A method and system for implementing multi-user virtual multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques for wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) having one or more antennas are disclosed. The system includes a base station and at least one WTRU having at least two antennas. The number of antennas of the base station is not less than the number of antennas of any of the WTRUs. The base station generates a channel matrix for the WTRUs and processes received signals from the WTRUs based on a measurement of the channel matrix. The WTRUs may perform transmit precoding or eigen-beamforming using the channel matrix information. The WTRUs may also perform transmit diversity.

A method and apparatus for reducing a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication system are disclosed. Transmit beamforming or precoding is performed on transmit symbols based on a channel matrix. For feedback, channel matrices may be averaged over multiple subcarriers and the averaged channel matrices may be further quantized. In order to reduce the PAPR, amplitude clipping may be performed on the symbols after the transmit processing. The amplitude clipping may be performed by hard clipping, soft clipping, or smooth clipping.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for measuring and reporting a rank and/or a precoding matrix for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication are disclosed. A metric indicating a channel condition is measured and a rank is selected based on the metric. The metric may be a signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR), throughput, a block error rate (BLER), system capacity, a sum rate, or the like. An SINR for each radio block group (RBG) for each rank is calculated. A data rate is calculated for each RBG based on the SINR for each rank. An overall rate for all RBGs is calculated for each rank. At least one rank is selected based on the overall rate. At least one precoding matrix may be selected jointly with or separately from the at least one rank.
摘要:
A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is configure to receive and sample wireless signals in a shared spectrum where the wireless signal comprise encoded symbols. The WTRU has a channel estimation device configured to process received signal samples to produce an estimate of a channel response of the received signals corresponding to a matrix H. The channel estimation device is preferably configured to process the received signal samples to produce an estimate of noise variance of the received signals. The WTRU preferably has a two stage data estimator that includes a channel equalizer and a despreader. The channel equalizer is configured to process received signal samples using the estimated channel response matrix H and the estimate of noise variance to produce a spread signal estimate of the received signals. The despreader is configured to process the spread signal estimate of the received signals produced by said channel equalizer to recover encoded symbols of the received signals.

Methods for signaling multi-user multiple-input multiple output (MU-MIMO) parameters for Evolved-UTRA (E-UTRA) are disclosed. Example signaling format methods are presented that allow use of distributed virtual resource blocks (DVRB) or support of four wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) but maintaining a predetermined signal format size. A signaling format is also presented that signals transmission precoding matrix indexes used by all co-scheduled WTRUs.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus for communicating precoding or beamforming information to users are disclosed. A feedback signal including a reported preceding matrix index (PMI) is received and a determination made as to the state of the feedback. Precoding rules associated with the determined state are then used to select a precoding matrix. The state information is transmitted to a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU), which uses the state information and the precoding rules associated therewith to select the precoding matrix used to precoded a received precoded data signal.
