摘要:
Embodiments herein relate to wireless communication using combined channel training and physical layer header (SIG) signaling. Devices that comply with the 802.11ax or High Efficiency WLAN (HEW) standard may generate and transmit packets that include such combined information. The combined information may be beamformed to a receiver device via an OFDM signal, which may be decoded by the receiver device to obtain subsequent data included in the signal. For example, initial training symbols associated with channel training subcarriers in the signal may be detected and used to perform a rough estimate of the channel. The rough estimate may thereafter be refined using data symbols detected from adjacent data subcarriers using the channel training symbols. In this way, data subcarriers may also be used to determine a channel response along with channel training subcarriers. Channel training information may be transmitted with data, such as user-specific information, in a single symbol.

An apparatus includes a processor a channel state information (CSI) module operative on the processor to evaluate channel state information for a multiplicity of transmission points and to allocate a selection of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) to an uplink sub-frame allotted for transmitting channel quality/precoding matrix index/rank indicator (CQI/PMI/RI) information to a transmission point. The apparatus may further include a wireless transceiver operative to transmit the selection of CSI-RS in the uplink sub-frame to the transmission point in a wireless network, and receive information from the transmission point in response to the CSI-RS and a digital display operative to present the information received from the transmission point.

Methods, devices and systems for jointly encoding allocation information of one or more wireless communication stations in a common portion of a physical layer header are disclosed. In some examples, a wireless device may: generate allocation information associated with one or more wireless communication stations; encode the allocation information into the common portion of the physical layer header; and transmit the physical layer header to the one or more wireless communication stations.

Technology for channel state information (CSI) feedback in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication system is disclosed. A method comprises receiving, at a mobile device, a dynamic channel state information (CSI) feedback switch signal from a transmission station that identifies a selected CSI feedback state for the mobile device. A process for selecting a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) and a rank indicator is identified based on the CSI feedback switch signal as either a process configured for MU-MIMO reception or single-user (SU) MIMO reception of a downlink signal at the mobile device.

Example systems, methods, and devices for efficient indication of bandwidth and stream allocation are discussed. In one embodiment, a method for indication of bandwidth allocation in a wireless network can include partitioning, by a network device, a bandwidth of a wireless signal into a plurality of subband units, assigning one or more switch bits between adjacent subband units, and allocating one or more modified subband units to one or more users of the network. In another embodiment, a method for stream allocation can include partitioning, by a network device, a spatial stream of a wireless signal into a plurality of spatial streams, assigning one or more switch bits between adjacent spatial streams, and allocating one or more modified spatial streams to one or more users of the network. Certain methods, apparatus, and systems described herein can be applied to 802.11ax or any other wireless standard.

Embodiments of user equipment (UE) and methods for codebook subsampling for enhanced 4TX codebooks in 3GPP LTE wireless networks are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) is configured for transmission of channel state information (CSI) feedback including a rank indicator (RI) and a precoding matrix (W1). The rank indicator (RI) and a precoding matrix (W1) are jointly encoded and codebook subsampling is performed for the enhanced 4Tx codebook for at least one of: PUCCH report type 5 (RI/1st PMI) in PUCCH 1-1 submode 1; PUCCH report type 2c (CQI/1st PMI/2nd PMI) in PUCCH 1-1 submode 2; and PUCCH report type 1a (subband CQI/2nd PMI) in PUCCH 2-1.

Embodiments of a system and method for beamforming in a Wireless Network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, an enhanced Node B (eNB) transmits to User Equipment (UE), from a plurality (Nc) of antenna ports of a plurality (Nt) of transmit antennas, a data signal where signal power is allocated in eigen beams, each of the Nt transmit antennas having antenna ports that are adjustable in elevation and in azimuth. The eNB also determines and transmits to the UE a Pc set of the largest principal eigen beams of the data signal and receives, as feedback from the UE, a precoding matrix that identifies the antenna port from which strongest energy in the data signal is detected at the UE. The eNB uses the precoding matrix for beamforming.

A system and a method is disclosed for selecting at least one vertical precoding vector of a three-dimensional Multiple Input Multiple Output (3D-MIMO) configuration based on Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS) information that is feedback from a wireless terminal device to an evolved Node B (eNB). The 3D-MIMO CSI-RS process is configured for a plurality of CSI-RS ports in which the plurality of CSI-RS ports that are grouped into a plurality of CSI-RS port groups and in which corresponds to the 3D arrangement of antennas. CSI configuration information for the different CSI-RS port groups can be a time-domain-based CSI-RS process, a frequency-domain-based CSI-RS process, a code-domain-based CSI-RS process, or a combination thereof. CSI-RS information is measured for each CSI-RS group and feedback for selection of the at least one vertical precoding vector.
