摘要:
The beam pattern associated with a multi-beam antenna array is adjusted if a first beam of the beam pattern is overloaded. A lobe of a second beam of the beam pattern can be steered away from a main lobe of the first beam. Also, if a user is located in an area covered by a second beam which is adjacent to the first beam, a third beam of the beam pattern can be selected for effectuating communication with the user. If a user is located in an area covered by the first beam, another beam of the beam pattern can be selected for effectuating communication with the user.

Handover is a main function that is used to support mobility in the network. In a cellular communication network having adaptive antennas for enabling narrow beam operation, a network control unit sends a radio link setup request to a selected cell-serving network unit for configuration of a new serving radio link. Before responding to the radio link setup request the cell-serving network unit performs uplink measurements with respect to the mobile unit, and a narrow target beam is selected within a cell served by the cell-serving network unit based on these measurements. The cell-serving network unit then configures the new serving radio link for the considered mobile unit directly with the selected narrow target beam. Consequently the system can perform the handover procedure using narrow beams only, without first establishing the radio link with a cell-wide beam and then reconfiguring the radio link onto a narrow beam.

In controlling a multi-beam antenna system for downlink wireless communication, beamforming and closed loop transmit diversity signaling are combined. Each beam signal is adjusted at the transmitter based on feedback from a wireless mobile communication station such that the signals received at the wireless mobile communication station can be coherently combined.

The present invention relates to a method and arrangement in a transmitter unit of a multi-antenna system for an improved calculating of the antenna weights for a beamforming transmission of data from a transmitter unit to a target receiver unit, whereby interfering signal components for receiving units other than the target receiving unit and the desired communication signal at a target receiving unit are weighted by receiver-specific parameters describing the receiver capabilities of said units in terms of their capability for interference suppression and/or signal enhancement. The invention also relates to a method and arrangement for scheduling of user equipments by using said information on the signal processing capabilities for received signals of each receiving unit.

The present invention relates to methods, a network controller unit (120A, 120B) and a network unit 110A, 110) in a wireless communications system (100). According to the present invention, the transmission/reception mode to be used by a user equipment UE (130A, 130B) can be decided in the network controller unit (120A, 120B) based on reports transmitted from the network unit (110A, 110B). The reports include a recommendation on the mode to be used by the UE (130A, 130B).

Embodiments herein relate to a method in a base station (12) for providing feedback to a user equipment (14) for transmissions of a secondary stream out of a primary and a secondary stream of the user equipment (14) in an uplink Multiple Input Multiple Output mode. The base station (12) transmits to the user equipment (14), a preferred transmission rank and an offset for the secondary stream in a channel, wherein the offset is to be used by the user equipment (14) when deciding transport block size of the secondary stream and the preferred transmission rank is to be used by the user equipment (14) when deciding a transmission rank.
摘要:
A composite signal including a plurality of component signal streams is processed using QR-decomposition to detect symbols and calculate a decision metric for each of the signal streams (202). Soft serial interference cancellation is performed on the composite signal based on the symbols detected for different ones of the signal streams and a ranking of the signal streams (204). The symbols are re-detected and the decision metric re-calculated for each signal stream based on soft serial interference cancellation results (206). The different decision metric calculations for at least one of the signal streams are compared to determine whether symbol detection is more accurate with or without soft serial interference cancellation (208). The signal streams are decoded using symbols detected based on soft serial interference cancellation results when symbol detection is determined to be more accurate with soft serial interference cancellation (210). Otherwise, the streams are decoded based on the symbols detected using QR-decomposition (210).
摘要:
The present invention relates to a system and a method for transmitting data between a first terminal and a communication network access point. The method may comprise the steps of defining a first set of scrambling codes and a second set of scrambling codes different from the first set of scrambling codes. Further, the method may comprise defining a first selection scheme for a first parameter. The method may still further comprise determining a current parameter value for the first parameter and evaluating the current parameter value on the basis of the first selection scheme and selecting a scrambling code from the first set of scrambling codes or the second set of scrambling codes based on the evaluation. Even further, the method may comprise packaging and transmitting data between the first terminal and the communication network access point using the selected scrambling codes.
