    摘要: Specifically, a method and system that performs MIMO and beamforming at a base station based on an uplink channel sounding (ULCS) from only one of the mobile station antennas and closed-loop multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) schemes based on the singular value decomposition (SVD) of the channel matrix. The ULCS is limited to sounding and the channel uses fewer than an optimal number of transmit antennas (e.g. one for WiMAX). The base station arrays may be configured for a full array transmitting mode or a sub-array transmitting mode.

    摘要: A receiver and methods of operation wherein Log-Likelihood-Ratio calculation are performed for arbitrary channel estimators with linear Minimum-Mean-Square-Error (MMSE) combining, successive cancellation combining, or joint detection. In some embodiments, the use of linear MMSE or successive cancellation combining may be employed to greatly lower the computational complexity over joint detection.In (401) a channel estimation MSE as a function of frequency, the transmitter modulation type, and a noise power are provided to the LLR component (313). A signal from a transmitter is received at one of the various antennas (301), (303) and respective receiver component (305), (307) in block (403). The channel estimation component (309) computes a channel estimate for the signal from the transmitter, or computes multiple channel estimates for multiple transmitter sources, in block (405). In block (407), decoder inputs are determined as a function of the channel estimates, the received signal, noise power, and channel estimation MSE.

    摘要: In an OFDM system the same Walsh code is used at the same time for a plurality of transmitters. The multiple transmitters can be from the same, or different devices (e.g., different base stations on the downlink, different terminals on the uplink). Each subcarrier/antenna combination will share a similar pilot Walsh code, except for the fact that the scrambled spread pilot signals will be phase shifted on some subcarriers of some antennas, based on the subcarrier/antenna combination.

    摘要: A noise thresholder of a baseband modem integrated circuit (BMIC) compares measured noise variances on corresponding receiver paths to a pre-established threshold minimum value. The noise thresholder assigns as a noise variance value for a corresponding receiver path either (a) a measured noise variance value for each receiver path having a measured noise variance that is larger than the pre-established threshold minimum, and (b) the pre-established threshold minimum value for each receiver path having a measured noise variance that is less than or equal to the pre-established threshold minimum value. A noise balancer performs noise balancing to provide a same signal to noise ratio (SNR) across all receiver paths, based on the assigned noise variances provided at the noise thresholder. A detection engine utilizes a lowest assigned noise variance value and outputs yielded by the noise balancer to simplify equalization computations while providing a high performance symbol detection capability.

    摘要: A method and system generates channel response estimates by performing time direction filtering of first channel estimates obtained from frequency direction filtering. A baseband integrated circuit (BBIC) receives information signals comprising reference signals, control signals provided by physical control channels, and data signals provided by physical data channels. Using a latency requirement of a physical channel, symbol selection logic selects valid reference signal symbol positions corresponding to first channel estimates from among frequency filtered received reference signals. A coefficient set selection logic selects a set of filter coefficients from among multiple sets of pre-optimized coefficients, utilizing at least one of (a) the latency requirement, (b) a channel condition, and (c) the selected reference signal symbol positions. A time direction filter uses the selected filter coefficients to filter the first channel estimates in order to generate a channel response estimate for a resource element of the physical channel.
