Abstract:
A method for communication includes receiving in a receiver (70) signals, which include one or more dedicated reference signals (98), that are transmitted from a transmitter (20) over a communication channel in multiple blocks. The signals in each block, including the dedicated reference signals, are transmitted on a respective group of subcarriers over a respective time interval and are precoded using a respective precoding scheme that maps the signals onto multiple antenna ports (52) of the transmitter. Based on the received signals, feedback is computed in the receiver with respect to the communication channel in each of multiple spectral sub-bands, and the feedback for the multiple spectral sub-bands is reported to the transmitter. One or more parameters of the communication channel are estimated jointly over the dedicated reference signals included in each of the spectral sub-bands for which the feedback is reported. The signals are decoded based on the estimated parameters.

Abstract:
A method for communication includes configuring a communication system that includes a transmitter (20) and a receiver with first precoding matrices for mapping up to N data streams onto N transmit antenna ports (52) of the transmitter. Each of at least some of the first precoding matrices are derived from respective second and third precoding matrices. The second and third precoding matrices are configured for mapping data onto respective numbers of transmit antenna ports that are less than N. The data streams are mapped onto the N transmit antenna ports using a precoding scheme based on one of the first precoding matrices. The mapped data streams are transmitted over the N transmit antenna ports from the transmitter to the receiver.

Abstract:
A method includes receiving a Multiple-Input Multiple Output (MIMO) signal over multiple communication channels from an antenna array (40) including a first set of antennas (44A...44D) having a first polarization and a second set of the antennas (48 A...48D) having a second polarization that is orthogonal to the first polarization. First feedback information is calculated relating to first interrelations between the antennas within either the first set or the second set. Second feedback information is calculated relating at least to second interrelations between the first set and the second set of the antennas. The first feedback information is transmitted at a first time/frequency granularity, and the second feedback information is transmitted at a second time/frequency granularity that is finer than the first time/frequency granularity.
Abstract:
A method for a user equipment device of a cellular communications system includes block encoding a control signal with a variable rate block code whose coding rate generally matches a variable coding rate of a data channel upon which the report is to be transmitted. The encoding includes determining an output encoding length K which is a function of a current code rate of the data channel, repeating a block encoding matrix to provide it with at least K rows and generating an encoded control signal on the data channel from the control signal using the first K rows of the repeated block encoding matrix.

Abstract:
A method for communication includes receiving in a receiver (70) signals, which include one or more dedicated reference signals (98) and are transmitted from a transmitter (20) over a communication channel in multiple blocks (9OA, 90B). The signals in each block, including the dedicated reference signals, are transmitted on a respective group of subcarriers over a respective time interval and are precoded using a respective precoding scheme that maps the signals onto multiple antenna ports (52) of the transmitter. Two or more of the blocks whose respective precoding schemes differ from one another by no more than a predefined distance are identified. One or more parameters of the communication channel are estimated over the dedicated reference signals included in the identified blocks. The signals are decoded based on the estimated parameters.
