摘要:
A system and method are provided for supplying a frequency-smoothed communications training signal. The method generates a frequency-smoothed unbiased training signal in a quadrature modulation transmitter. The frequency-smoothed unbiased training signal includes a plurality of pilot signal products, where each pilot signal product includes complex plane information represented by a reference frequency subcarrier, multiplying complex plane information represented by mirror frequency subcarrier. The sum of the plurality of pilot signal products is equal to zero. The method supplies the frequency-smoothed unbiased training signal so that it may be transmitted within a single symbol period. System and methods are also provided for using a frequency-smoothed training signal in the calculation of a receiver channel estimate.
摘要:
An orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) transmitter may adaptively load each sub-carrier, buffering less than an OFDM frame in order to reduce hardware requirements and latency. The transmitter may use feedback information from the receiver regarding the quality of the sub-carriers. In addition, combining repetition and puncturing to achieve a desired date rate per class further reduces hardware by simplifying or even eliminating an interleaver. Additional mitigation and even performance enhancement techniques are incorporated to address inter-class boundaries within an OFDM frame, such as introducing transition classes. Channel state information may be reported in various formats including full bitmap, changed subchannels, and reported bad subchannels.

A system and method are provided for using frequency domain spreading to generate real signals in the time domain. The method supplies a first complex frequency domain symbol (α) and a second complex frequency domain symbol (αi), and maps (α+jαi) onto a subcarrier (+f). Further, (α−jαi)* is mapped onto a mirror subcarrier (−f). The mappings are converted into a complex time domain symbol carrying α and jαi in a single inverse fast Fourier transformation (IFFT). The real component of the complex time domain symbol (α) is initially supplied, and subsequently supplied is an imaginary component of the complex time domain symbol (αi). The real symbol component (α) is supplied by carrying α on the subcarrier (+f), and carrying (α)* on the mirror subcarrier (−f). The imaginary symbol component αi is supplied by carrying αi on the subcarrier (+f), and carrying (αi)* on the mirror subcarrier (−f).

A receiver window for symbol extraction is provided. A symbol is spread across a plurality of sub-carriers of a frequency band for transmission. If the frequency band is affected by narrowband interference, the receiver window concentrates the narrowband interference energy to minimize its effect on distant sub-carriers within the frequency band. The receiver window is shaped for extracting the symbol from the frequency band, wherein the receiver window has a starting point before the start of the symbol. The receiver window overlaps a previous receiver window for the previous adjacent symbol on the same frequency band. The receiver window is shaped by overlapping and adding a channel impulse response segment from a zero-padded portion of the symbol to the beginning of the symbol and overlapping and adding a second portion from the previous zero-padded symbol (from the same frequency band) to the end of the symbol.

A system and method are provided for removing quadrature imbalance errors in received data. The method accepts an unbiased training sequence in a quadrature demodulation receiver. An unbiased training sequence has a uniform accumulated power evenly distributed in a complex plane, and includes predetermined reference signals (p) at frequency +f and predetermined mirror signals (pm) at frequency −f. The unbiased training sequence is processed, generating a sequence of processed symbols (y) at frequency +f, representing complex plane information in the unbiased training sequence. Each processed symbol (y) is multiplied by the mirror signal (pm), and an unbiased quadrature imbalance estimate Bm is obtained at frequency (−f). Using quadrature imbalance estimates, channel estimates, and processed symbols, an imbalance-corrected symbol can be generated.
