摘要： Techniques are provided to pre-distort a signal that is transmitted by a transmitter of a wireless communication device, e.g., a device configured for wireless radio frequency communication. The transmitter of the device inherently introduces distortion to the baseband signal to be transmitted. In at least one frame of a baseband signal to be transmitted, at least one subcarrier in a preamble of the frame is shifted in frequency such that the at least one subcarrier is offset from a normal subcarrier frequency position. The at least one frame of the baseband signal is supplied to the transmitter that is configured to produce a transmit signal for transmission. The transmit signal at an output of the transmitter is sampled or detected and inter-modulation distortion in the transmit signal is determined at one or more frequencies as a result of shifting of the frequency of the at least one subcarrier in the preamble of the at least one frame. The baseband signal is pre-distorted based on the inter-modulation distortion prior to coupling to the transmitter for transmission.

摘要： Techniques are provided to allow for implicit determination of the full spatial signature of a wireless channel between first and second wireless devices for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication between the first and second wireless devices. The first wireless device receives uplink signals at a plurality of antennas of the first wireless device that are transmitted via a plurality of antennas of a second wireless device. Values at a plurality of subcarriers of the received signals across the plurality of antennas of the first wireless device are derived. Using a sliding window for groups of adjacent subcarriers, downlink beamforming weights are computed for each group of subcarriers using channel information of one or more proximate groups of subcarriers. The downlink beamforming weights for the respective groups of subcarriers are applied to a number of spatial streams in a downlink transmission to be transmitted to the second wireless device.

摘要： Reducing the peak-to-average power ratio of a signal comprises receiving the input signal, where the input signal is associated with at least one unacceptable frequency range. The input signal is clipped about an amplitude range to yield a clipped signal and clipped information, where the clipped information represents intermodulation products. The clipped information is filtered to yield an error signal. The error signal represents a subset of the intermodulation products, where an intermodulation product of the subset corresponds to the unacceptable frequency range. The error signal is subtracted from the input signal to yield an output signal.

摘要： Techniques are provided for crest factor reduction of a symbol to be transmitted by a communication device. The symbol may be an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) formatted symbol. In a communication device, samples of the symbol are clipped with a clipping level. A signal quality of the symbol is computed after it is clipped. A determination is made as to whether the signal quality satisfies a predetermined criterion. When the signal quality does not satisfy the predetermined criterion, the clipping level is adjusted. The clipping, computing, determining and adjusting operations are repeated until the signal quality satisfies the predetermined criterion. The symbol clipped by the clipping level determined to result in satisfying the predetermined criterion is output for supply to a transmitter in the communication device. Techniques for computing for error vector magnitude that are faster and less computationally intensive are provided, as well as a computation for distortion that can be used as a measure of error vector magnitude.
