Abstract:
A method for repairing a memory device with faulty memory cells. The method includes defining a RA environment comprising a location of each of the faulty memory cells and a plurality of SR and a plurality of SC. The method further includes repairing the faulty memory cells based on an RA training process using the defined RA environment and mapping of the location of each faulty memory cell with the plurality of SC or SR. The method further includes training, based on a determination that indicates the at least one faulty memory cell among the faulty memory cells is left unrepaired and the at least one SC or SR is remaining, a first NN to perform an action for repairing of the faulty memory cells such that a maximum number of faulty memory cells are reparable and a minimum number of SC and SR are utilized during the repairing.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus report or identify channel quality information. The method for reporting includes selecting one or more beams for channel quality reporting. The method also includes mapping, by the UE, indices of the one or more selected beams to one or more channel quality values. Additionally, the method includes sending channel quality information for the one or more selected beams according to the mapping. The method for identifying includes receiving an indication of indices of one or more beams selected for reporting. The method also includes receiving channel quality information for the one or more selected beams. The method further includes identifying a mapping of the indices of the one or more selected beams to one or more channel quality values. Additionally, the method includes identifying a channel quality value for each of the one or more selected beams according to the mapping.
Abstract:
To reduce the duration of a cyclic prefix used for a multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) communications channel, delay spread variations for different transmit/receive beam pair combination is estimated and used for fast beam switching and to support single user MIMO (SU-MIMO) even when the CP difference between two beams is large. Beam switching reference signals are employed to estimate delay spread exceeding current CP, and to support beam switching. CP covering sub-clusters within clusters for the MIMO channel are exploited to reduce the CP requirement and improve efficiency. Any one of a number of different CP durations may be selected for each different mobile station, using one of a finite set of subframe configurations for which the CP durations of different symbol locations within the subframe are predefined. Dynamically switching subframe configurations by the system accommodates high mobility.
Abstract:
A transmitter in a wireless network configured to utilize a pilot design and channel estimation strategy to reduce pilot overhead, the pilot design based on a channel decomposition of the channel in a ray tracing channel model. A method of using a three tiered pilot design in a millimeter wave broadband (MMB) wireless network to estimate channel state information (CSI) may include assigning a first tier pilot to a first set of resource blocks, assigning a second tier pilot to second set of resource blocks, assigning a third tier pilot in a third set of resource blocks. When two of the pilots are assigned to a common resource block, the lower tier pilot may be given preference over the higher tier pilot.

A receiver in a multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) system is configured to perform a method for generating channel quality feedback information. The method includes receiving, from a MIMO transmitter, pilot signals in each MIMO layer. The method also includes selecting an optimal precoder matrix for each MIMO layer using a first detection metric. The method further includes determining a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for each MIMO layer using a second detection metric and the optimal precoder.

A receiver in a multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) system is configured to perform a method for generating channel quality feedback information. The method includes receiving, from a MIMO transmitter, pilot signals in each MIMO layer. The method also includes estimating the MIMO channel using the received pilot signals and performing a QR decomposition of the estimated MIMO channel. The method further includes predicting a probability of error for each MIMO layer after the QR decomposition of the estimated MIMO channel. The method still further includes determining a corresponding signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for each MIMO layer based on the probability of error for the each MIMO layer.

Abstract:
A transmitted signal estimate based on signals received in a layer i within a multiple input, multiple output transmission system and based upon selected constellation points for other, previously processed layers is quantized to a nearest constellation point. A list of candidates headed by the nearest constellation point and with remaining candidates presorted by proximity to the head is selected, for each such quantized estimate based on constellation point selections for previously processed layers. To select K best candidates for the transmitted signal estimates of the current layer i, the proximity of the candidates at the head of each list to the signal estimate for the current layer are compared, and the closest candidate is selected. The list containing the selected candidate is advanced, and proximity of the transmitted signal estimate to all list heads is again evaluated and the closest candidate selected.
