Abstract:
An apparatus includes a circuit configured to at least one of (i) encode first data to produce encoded data or (ii) decode second data to produce decoded data. The circuit is configured to operate according to a predetermined matrix. The predetermined matrix is represented by a two-dimensional grid of elements. Each element of the predetermined matrix labeled with a hyphen corresponds to a zero matrix. Each element of the predetermined matrix labeled with a number corresponds to a respective cyclic-permutation matrix.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for determining a data value for a bit of interest in a received data signal. A closest 0-bit symbol candidate is selected from a plurality of 0-bit symbol candidates using a symbol selection distance approximation. A closest 1-bit symbol candidate is selected from a plurality of 1-bit symbol candidates using the symbol selection distance approximation. A 0-bit distance between the received data signal and the selected 0-bit symbol candidate is determined, and a 1-bit distance between the received data signal and the selected 1-bit symbol candidate is determined. A log likelihood ratio is calculated for the bit of interest using the determined 0-bit distance and the determined 1-bit distance.
Abstract:
Signal power of a received signal, which has a plurality of preamble sequences associated with sub-carrier signals received from a plurality of sub-carriers, in a cellular Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing system may be estimated by estimating as power for at least one preamble sequence of a signal received at a selected receive antenna. The preamble sequence is associated with a base station and a set of sub-carriers. A differential received signal developed for one of the set of sub-carriers is correlated with a normalized differential transmit signal for the preamble sequence, and the estimate of the power for the at least one preamble sequence is extracted based on the correlation.

Abstract:
A system including a first receiver that generates a first set of decoded codewords; and a first canceller that cancels, in response to any decoded codeword of the first set of decoded codewords failing CRC and a first decoded codeword from the first set of decoded codewords passing CRC, interference of a first codeword on a second set of codewords which includes the plurality of codewords and excludes the first codeword. The system further includes a second receiver that generates a third set of decoded codewords by decoding the second set of codewords; and a second canceller that cancels, in response to any decoded codeword of the third set of decoded codewords failing CRC and a second decoded codeword from the third set of decoded codewords passing CRC, interference of a second codeword on a fourth set of codewords.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for determining a channel quality indicator (CQI) in a transmission system associated with a diversity transmission scheme. A plurality of independent diversity branches are identified in the diversity transmission scheme. Each one of the independent diversity branches may correspond to a different portion of the effective channel and may include any suitable combination of frequency, time, and/or spatial components of the effective channel or of any wired or wireless paths or combinations of the same. An effective Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) value is computed for each one of the identified independent diversity branches. The computed effective SNR values are combined for the identified independent diversity branches to generate a CQI value.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for channel estimation using linear phase estimation. These systems and methods enable improved channel estimation by estimating a linear channel phase between received pilot subcarrier signals. The estimated linear phase can then be removed from the received pilot subcarrier signals. After the estimated linear phase is removed from the received pilot subcarrier signals, a channel response can be estimated. A final estimated channel response can be generated by multiplying the results of the linear channel estimation by the estimated linear phase.
