    摘要: An improved receiver design implements a practical method for modeling users in SIC turbo loop multiuser detection architectures, wherein in each loop unsubtracted estimation errors from previous loops are used to appropriately scale the error covariance matrix for each user, thereby accurately representing the remaining residual interference in the data stream for each desired user. The effect of estimation errors in previous interference cancellation operations is thereby minimized, and symbol estimations in successive turbo loops are improved, for example during multiuser MMSE, multiuser MMSE with interference rejection combining (MMSE-IRC), sample matrix inversion (SMI), or any of their adaptive variants (least mean-square, recursive least square, Kalman filter etc.). The estimated residual symbol energy can be computed per symbol, and then applied to entire data streams, to groups of symbols, or to each symbol separately.

    摘要: In a mobile communication system, a mobile communication apparatus in a vehicle includes a selected resource antenna permitting communication using a selected resource, establishing wireless communication with a target communication apparatus. The mobile communication system includes a propagation path characteristic acquirer section and a resource selector section. The propagation path characteristics acquirer section acquires propagation path characteristics information in association with a future communication position, the propagation path characteristics information being about propagation path characteristics between (i) the target communication apparatus and (ii) a reference antenna equal to the selected resource antenna in antenna characteristics including an antenna format. The resource selector section, based on the propagation path characteristics information, selects a resource to be used in communication at the future communication position before the selected resource antenna of the mobile communication apparatus comes to be placed at the future communication position.

    摘要: An apparatus, a method and a computer program for determining estimates is disclosed. The apparatus determines estimates for transmitted symbols from received symbols of an optical signal affected by cross-Polarization Modulation (XpolM). The apparatus groups two or more subsequent received symbols from the optical signal into a group of received symbols and estimates an optical channel based on the group of received symbols and a hypothesis on the transmitted symbols. The apparatus further determines a reliability measure for a combination of the group of received symbols, the channel estimate, and the hypothesis, and determines the estimates for the transmitted symbols based on reliability measures for multiple hypotheses on the transmitted symbols.

    摘要: A receiver applies a calibration method to compensate for skew between input channels. The receiver skew is estimated by observing the coefficients of an adaptive equalizer which adjusts the coefficients based on time-varying properties of the multi-channel input signal. The receiver skew is compensated by programming the phase of the sampling clocks for the different channels. Furthermore, during real-time operation of the receiver, channel diagnostics is performed to automatically estimate differential group delay and/or other channel characteristics based on the equalizer coefficients using a frequency averaging or polarization averaging approach. Framer information can furthermore be utilized to estimate differential group delay that is an integer multiple of the symbol rate. Additionally, a DSP reset may be performed when substantial signal degradation is detected based on the channel diagnostics information.

A ML MIMO receiver receives a first MIMO signal from a MIMO transmitter. Channel characteristics of the first MIMO signal are determined based on decision feedback equalization (DFE) processing. The DFE-determined channel characteristics, or information derived from the DFE-determined channel characteristics, are reported to the MIMO transmitter and the MIMO ML receiver decodes a second MIMO signal based on ML processing. The second MIMO signal is modulated and encoded by the MIMO transmitter according to a modulation and coding scheme in accordance with (1) the DFE-determined channel characteristics or (2) the information derived from the DFE-determined channel characteristics.
