    Abstract: To receive a signal from a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) communication channel, initial channel taps are generated based on an impulse response estimate of the MIMO communication channel. The received signal is pre-filtered using the initial channel taps to generate output channel taps and a corresponding output signal having an increased signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and uncorrelated noise. The SNR is based on a ratio of the energy in a first subset of the output channel taps to the energy in a second subset of the output channel taps.

    Abstract: A modulator includes a symbol mapper that is configured to map respective bits sets of a bit sequence corresponding to a burst and including data, training, tail, and guard bits into respective symbols to form a symbol sequence of data, training, tail, and guard symbols. A vector precoder is configured to apply a vector precoding transformation to the data and training symbols to form precoded symbols. These precoded symbols are combined with the tail and guard symbols in a symbol processor to form a sequence of transmit symbols. The record precoding conducted by the modulator of a transmitter enables improved link performance without the cost of increased processing complexity of the receiver algorithm.

    Abstract: A distributed parameter update procedure is provided for updating parameters that do not have discrete values. When a parameter value is changed, a search is conducted of a parameter space to find a new parameter value minimizes some cost function. The cost function is derived based on the current parameter settings in neighboring nodes. The distributed parameter update procedure may simplify the search process by localizing the search of the parameter space for a new parameter value to the vicinity of the current parameter setting. In some embodiments, the search is conducted along a line of steepest descent emanating from the current parameter setting.

    Abstract: Accurate downlink channel estimates are calculated based on infrequently transmitted Channel State Information (CSI) feedback data from a UE 20. A plurality of non-uniformly spaced digital CSI feedback samples, representing the frequency response of a downlink communication channel, is received from the UE. The received CSI feedback samples are demodulated and inverse quantized. A time domain tap delay channel model is generated from the inverse quantized CSI feedback samples. The time domain tap delay channel model may be frequency-transformed to obtain a reconstructed frequency response of the downlink communication channel in the frequency domain. Alternatively, channel delays may be estimated based on prior delays and/or known references signals transmitted on the uplink. Channel estimates between CSI reporting instances may be predicted, such as by a sample & hold or a linear predictor. The delays may be presumed fixed, and Kalman filter coefficients evolved over time.

    Abstract: Demodulation methods and apparatus for a multi-stage SLI demodulator are disclosed. Residual signals from each demodulation stage are modeled as finite sets of unresolved signals and a new metric is introduced for use in search of best candidate symbol estimates. The metric may be evaluated based on a probability distribution function of the residual signals or a probability mass function of the unresolved signals. The metric may also be approximated by the sum of a conventional Euclidean metric and a correction metric. The best candidate symbol estimates generated from each stage of the multi-stage SLI demodulator are summed to form cumulative symbol estimates.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for transmitting data over a desired frequency tone in the presence of an interference that has an unknown magnitude that is substantially constant. In general, data symbols are transmitted in a null space of the desired frequency tone. The null space of the desired frequency tone is orthogonal to the desired frequency tone. As such, the data symbols transmitted in the null space of the desired frequency tone are not interfered with by the interference at the desired frequency tone regardless of the magnitude of the interference. The data symbols transmitted in the null space of the desired frequency tone can then be recovered by a receiver without estimation of or compensation for the interference at the desired frequency tone.

    Abstract: Systems and methods utilize enhanced metrics for demodulation and/or soft bit information generation in the presence of a non-constant envelope modulated interfering signal. In one embodiment, a receiver includes a downconverter and a demodulator. The downconverter receives a radio frequency signal comprising a desired signal, noise, and a non-constant envelope modulated interfering signal, and downconverts the radio frequency signal to provide a downconverted signal. The demodulator demodulates the downconverted signal based on a demodulation metric that models the non-constant envelope modulated interfering signal as a stationary non-Gaussian random process with a probability distribution derived from a modulation constellation of a modulation used for the non-constant envelope modulated interfering signal. In one embodiment, the demodulator outputs demodulated symbols. In another embodiment, the demodulator outputs soft bit information.
