摘要:
A transmission apparatus maps a first stream of input data to first complex symbols in serial format and convert them into first complex symbols in parallel format. They are inverse Fourier transformed into OFDM signals associated with multiple subcarriers that are transmitted via a first antenna over the multiple subcarriers in a same frequency band over a same time period that includes a same set of time slots. First pilot information is transmitted via a first antenna on a first one of a plurality of pilot subcarriers during the same set of time slots, and second pilot information is sent via a first antenna on a second one of a plurality of pilot subcarriers during the same set of time slots. The second pilot information is different from the first pilot information. A second stream of input data is similarly transformed to form second OFDM signals transmit via a second antenna over the multiple subcarriers in the same frequency band over the same time period that includes the same set of time slots. The first pilot information is transmitted via the second antenna on the second pilot subcarrier during the set of same time slots, and the second pilot information is transmitted on one of the pilot subcarriers during the same set of time slots.
摘要:
A transmission apparatus includes processing circuitry that generates a first data sequence representing first data or a second data sequence representing second data different from the first data and selects the first data sequence as an output data sequence. A modulation scheme is determined from a plurality of modulation schemes, and the output data sequence is modulated with the determined modulation scheme. Transmission circuitry transmits the modulated output data sequence. A first time interval associated with selecting the first data sequence for the output data sequence is longer than a second time interval associated with determining the determined modulation scheme.
摘要:
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication is provided which allows high accuracy estimation of frequency offset, high accuracy estimation of a transmission path fluctuation and high accuracy synchronization/signal detection. Pilot symbol mapping is provided for forming pilot carriers by assigning orthogonal sequences to corresponding subcarriers among OFDM signals which are transmitted at the same time from respective antennas in the time domain. Even when pilot symbols are multiplexed among a plurality of channels (antennas), this allows frequency offset/phase noise to be estimated with high accuracy.

Each pilot symbol sequence includes a plurality of pilot symbols with non-zero amplitude. A quantity of the plurality of pilot symbols in each pilot symbol sequence is greater than or equal to a quantity of the plurality of multicarrier signals to be transmitted. The plurality of multicarrier signals are transmitted in an identical frequency band from a plurality of antennas.

A transmission apparatus and method include modulating a transmission signal using a first modulation scheme selected from a plurality of modulation schemes to generate a first symbol sequence. A second symbol, generated using a phase shift keying (PSK) modulation scheme, is inserted in the first symbol sequence to generate a first modulation signal for transmission. A second modulation signal is received that includes a third symbol generated using a PSK modulation scheme and inserted in a second symbol sequence generated using a second modulation scheme selected from the plurality of modulation schemes. The third symbol is extracted from the received modulation signal. A transmission path associated with the received modulation signal is estimated using the third symbol. A received data signal from the second symbol sequence included in the received modulation signal is output using the estimated transmission path.

摘要:
A receiver receives, using a plurality of antennas, a multiplexed signal that includes (i) a first OFDM modulation signal with a subcarrier carrying a symbol including multiplex information and a subcarrier carrying a pilot symbol and a subcarrier carrying a data symbol and (ii) a second OFDM modulation signal with a subcarrier carrying a symbol including multiplex information and a subcarrier carrying the pilot symbol and a subcarrier carrying the data symbol. A decoder uses the symbol including multiplex information and decodes the data symbol.

A method and apparatus for generating and transmitting modulation signals includes generating a plurality of modulation signals each of which is to be transmitted from a different one of a plurality of antennas. Each modulation signal includes a pilot symbol sequence and/or a pilot subcarrier including a plurality of pilot symbols used for demodulation. Each of the pilot symbol sequences and/or pilot subcarriers is inserted at the same temporal point in each modulation signal. The pilot symbol sequences and/or pilot subcarriers are orthogonal to each other, each pilot symbol having a non-zero amplitude. The quantity of the plurality of pilot symbols in each pilot symbol sequence and/or pilot subcarrier is greater than a quantity of the plurality of modulation signals to be transmitted. The plural modulation signals are transmitted from the plurality of antennas in an identical frequency band. Each modulation signal includes different transmission data and one of the pilot symbol sequences and/or pilot subcarriers.
