摘要:
Techniques for performing decision feedback equalization are described. A feed-forward filter response and a feedback filter response are derived based on a channel estimate and a reliability parameter and further without constraint on the feedback filter response or with a constraint of no feedback for an on-time sample. The reliability parameter is indicative of the reliability of the feedback used for equalization and may be frequency dependent or frequency invariant. Different feed-forward and feedback filter responses may be derived with different constraints on the feedback filter and different assumptions for the reliability parameter. Equalization is performed with the feed-forward and feedback filter responses. If equalization is performed for multiple iterations then, for each iteration, the reliability parameter may be updated, the feed-forward and feedback filter responses may be derived based on the updated reliability parameter, and equalization may be performed with the filter responses for the iteration.

An equalization filter is provided with the ability to softly switch between pure linear equalization and decision feedback equalization. A reliability gain factor and an associated gain factor calculated by a predetermined mapping relation are provided in a decision feedback path and a feedforward path, respectively. Increasing the reliability gain factor increases the significance of the decision feedback filtering. Better performance than pure linear equalization and pure decision feedback equalization can be achieved.

Systems and methods allow cell acquisition in a wireless communication system in frequency division multiple access mode of operation. Code sequences transmitted over primary synchronization channel (P-SCH) enable detection of symbol boundary, cyclic prefix duration, and indication of broadcast channel bandwidth. Sequences transmitted over secondary synchronization channel (S-SCH) afford radio frame boundary detection, cell identification, and broadcast channel bandwidth indication. Cell identification can be conveyed jointly between P-SCH and S-SCH codes. Broadcast channel sequences convey cyclic prefix timing, system bandwidth and other system information. Relay of cell acquisition information, as well as multiple-cell acquisition when wireless system operates with frequency reuse are described.

Techniques for supporting MIMO transmission are described. User equipments (UEs) are classified into a first group of UEs to be scheduled individually and a second group of UEs that can be scheduled together. The classification may be based upon the number of transmit and receive antennas, sector loading, data requirements, long-term channel statistics, the number of UEs, etc. Channel quality indicator (CQI) information received from the UEs is interpreted in different manners depending on the groups to which the UEs belong. A single UE may be selected at a time from the first group or multiple UEs may be selected at a time from the second group for MIMO transmission. A MIMO transmission may be sent to a single UE in the first group or multiple UEs in the second group at rates selected based upon the CQI information.
摘要:
Techniques for supporting MIMO transmission are described. Users are classified into a first group of users to be scheduled individually for MIMO transmission and a second group of users that can be scheduled together for MIMO transmission. Transmission resources are allocated to the first and second groups, e.g., based upon various criteria such as the number of users in each group, data requirements of the users, total loading for each group, etc. The transmission resources may be hybrid automatic retransmission (HARQ) interlaces, frequency channels, time frequency resources, etc. The resource allocation may be semi-static. The transmission resources allocated to each group are used for data transmission on the downlink and/or uplink for the users in the group. HARQ with blanking may be used for data transmission for the users in the first group. HARQ without blanking may be used for data transmission for the users in the second group.

Techniques for efficiently deriving uplink channel estimates without consuming much additional uplink resources are described. A user equipment (UE) may send a request for uplink resources on a request channel (REQCH) whenever the UE desires to transmit data on the uplink. The UE may send the REQCH on a set of subcarriers and from multiple antennas, e.g., send REQCH data on data subcarriers and pilot on pilot subcarriers. A node B may receive the request, estimate the complex channel gains for the pilot subcarriers based on received pilot symbols, and coherently demodulate received data symbols based on the channel gain estimates. The Node B may estimate the complex channel gains for the data subcarriers based on demodulated data symbols and derive a channel estimate for each UE antenna based on the channel gain estimates for the pilot and data subcarriers. The Node B may use the channel estimates for MIMO scheduling, subband scheduling, and rate selection.
