摘要:
An antenna array of a base station is calibrated using outbound traffic signals. The antenna array includes a number of sub-arrays. A combiner in the antenna array combines the outbound traffic signals in the sub-arrays into a feedback signal. The outbound traffic signals are captured simultaneously for use as reference signals before the outbound traffic signals enter transmit paths in a radio unit of the base station. Each of the reference signals is one of the outbound traffic signals that is to be transmitted via one of the sub-arrays. An impairment estimator of the base station estimates the impairment for each of the outbound traffic signals based on the feedback signal and the reference signals. An approximate inverse of the impairment estimation is applied to the outbound traffic signals by a number of equalizers before the outbound traffic signals enter the transmit paths.

Peak power reduction in transmit chains of frequency hopping, multi-band radiocommunication devices is performed. Filtering and, optionally, interpolation of a signal being processed for peak power reduction can be performed only in an error signal path or in both an error signal path and a primary signal path. Alternatively, a sufficiently high sample rate can be used in support of error signal generation.
摘要:
A system and method are provided for frequency domain peak power reduction on a plurality of orthogonal frequency divisional multiplexing (OFDM) signals in a communications system, wherein frequency domain processing of at least one OFDM signal carrier is iteratively performed to reduce peak power transmissions. OFDM signal carriers can include both in-band sub-carrier signals, and guard-band sub-carrier signals. Each iteration of peak power reduction takes as an input the frequency domain representation of the signal from the previous iteration that has been altered with respect to an error signal also represented in the frequency domain, determines an error signal (in the frequency domain), and subtracts this from the input to produce a further peak power reduced frequency domain signal. If there are no peaks above the configured peak power reduction threshold, then the signal passes through the FPPR iterations with no change.

Methods and devices for extracting a RACH preamble using as input a number of Fast Fourier Transformed symbols, in order to extract a random access channel (RACH) preamble from a signal received in a base station from a user device, in a radio communication system, are provided. An initial cyclic prefix (symbol CP) is removed prior to performing FFT on symbols. After (1) selecting from the FFT of a symbol frequencies corresponding to the RACH band all other non-RACH frequency bins having been set to zero, (2) shifting the signal to baseband and (3) performing a FFT on the baseband signal, a phase adjustment is performed to compensate for group delays due to symbol CP gaps occurring when generating the baseband signal, the phase adjustment being determined individually for each symbol.

Methods and devices for removing cross coupling effects between elements of an antenna array (110) are provided. Cross coupling coefficients between all pairs of antenna elements of the antenna array are predetermined to minimize a total power in theoretical null points calculated without considering the cross element effects. A transceiver (100) includes a multiplexing block (105) configured to receive data signals to be transmitted via the antenna elements and to output to at least one of the antenna elements, a sum signal including (i) a data signal, which data signal is designated for the at least one antenna element, and (ii) a linear combination of data signals designated for other antenna elements of the antenna array, each of the data signals in the linear combination being weighted by a respective cross coupling coefficient between the at least one antenna element and an antenna element emitting the each of the data signals.
