Abstract:
Space-time code, and methods for constructing space-time codes are provided. The space-time coder performs a respective linear transformation on each of P sets of K modulated symbols of a modulated symbol stream to produce P sets of T linearly transformed symbols, applies a respective phase rotation to each set of T linearly transformed symbols to produce a respective set of T phase rotated symbols, and performs a threading operation on the sets of T phase rotated symbols to produce P threaded sequences that define M output sequences; the threading operation being such that each threaded sequence is an allocation of output sequences over time of a respective one of the P sets of T phase rotated symbols in which all of the output sequences are used by each threaded sequence; during each of T symbol periods, a respective one of the P threaded sequences includes a symbol from one of the P sets of phase rotated symbols; and at least one symbol from each set of phase rotated symbols appears in each output sequence; where M>=2, 2 =M and M>=K.
Abstract:
The method for decoding a received signal in a multiple input/multiple output system uses QR-decomposition of the linear channel matrix, but then applies a non-Euclidean norm during tree traversal. Two separate hardware units, namely an MCU and a MEU, art provided for concurrent operation. The MCU determines a next child node, while the MEU determines next best parent nodes on the previously processed tree levels, which makes it possible to retrace the path to a next starting node without investing dedicated processing steps (e.g., cycles). On each tree level, the possible coordinates are grouped into several circular sets in the complex plane, and a series of decision boundaries is calculated for each set that allows a quick evaluation of the optimum coordinate in each set.
Abstract:
In performing SVD-MIMO transmission, a set-up procedure is simplified while assuring a satisfactory decoding capability with a reduced number of antennas. A transmitter estimates channel information based on reference signals sent from a receiver, determines a transmit antenna weighting coefficient matrix based on the channel information, calculates a weight to be assigned to each of components of a multiplexed signal, and sends, to the receiver, training signals for respective signal components, the training signals being weighted by the calculated weights. On the other hand, the receiver determines a receive antenna weighting coefficient matrix based on the received training signals.
Abstract:
A transmitter apparatus wherein a relatively simple structure is used to suppress burst errors without changing the block sizes of encoded blocks even when the number of modulation multi-values is increased. There are included an encoding part (11) that subjects transport data to a block encoding process to form block encoded data; a modulating part (15) that modulates the block encoded data to form data symbols; and an arranging (interleaving) part (12) that arranges (interleaves) the block encoded data in such a manner that the intra-block encoded data of the encoded blocks, which include their respective single different data symbol, get together, and then supplies the arranged (interleaved) block encoded data to the modulating part (15). In this way, there can be provided a transmitter apparatus (10) wherein a relatively simple structure is used to suppress burst errors without changing the block sizes of encoded blocks even when the number of modulation multi-values is increased.
Abstract:
A multiple-access MIMO WLAN system that employs MIMO, OFDM, and TDD. The system (1) uses a channel structure with a number of configurable transport channels, (2) supports multiple rates and transmission modes, which are configurable based on channel conditions and user terminal capabilities, (3) employs a pilot structure with several types of pilot (e.g., beacon, MIMO, steered reference, and carrier pilots) for different functions, (4) implements rate, timing, and power control loops for proper system operation, and (5) employs random access for system access by the user terminals, fast acknowledgment, and quick resource assignments. Calibration may be performed to account for differences in the frequency responses of transmit/receive chains at the access point and user terminals. The spatial processing may then be simplified by taking advantage of the reciprocal nature of the downlink and uplink and the calibration.

The downlink (DL) communication of single channel codewords is supported by providing a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmitter and receiver. The transmitter includes NT transmit antennas for transmitting spatial streams to a receiver having NR receive antennas, a precoder and a space-time or space-frequency matrix construction unit in communication with the precoder and the transmit antennas. The space-time or space-frequency matrix construction unit constructs a matrix that defines a threaded algebraic space-time (TAST) codeword based on a number of virtual antennas, NV, and the number of transmit antennas, NT. The transmitter operates in an open loop mode when no feedback information from the receiver is available, a semi-open loop mode when channel rank information is available, and a closed loop mode when channel state information (CSI) is available. The receiver is configured to provide feedback to the transmitter on a per received spatial stream basis
