Abstract: A MIMO system supports multiple spatial multiplexing modes for improved performance and greater flexibility. These modes may include (1) a single-user steered mode that transmits multiple data streams on orthogonal spatial channels to a single receiver, (2) a single-user non-steered mode that transmits multiple data streams from multiple antennas to a single receiver without spatial processing at a transmitter, (3) a multi-user steered mode that transmits multiple data streams simultaneously to multiple receivers with spatial processing at a transmitter, and (4) a multi-user non-steered mode that transmits multiple data streams from multiple antennas (co-located or non co-located) without spatial processing at the transmitter(s) to receiver(s) having multiple antennas. For each set of user terminal(s) selected for data transmission on the downlink and/or uplink, a spatial multiplexing mode is selected for the user terminal set from among the multiple spatial multiplexing modes supported by the system.

Abstract translation: MIMO系统支持多种空间复用模式，以提高性能和更大的灵活性。 这些模式可以包括（1）在正交空间信道上将多个数据流发送到单个接收机的单用户导向模式，（2）单个用户非导向模式，其将多个数据流从多个天线发送到单个接收机 在发射机处没有空间处理，（3）多用户导向模式，其在发射机处通过空间处理同时向多个接收机发送多个数据流，以及（4）多用户非导向模式，其从 在具有多个天线的发射机到接收机处没有空间处理的多个天线（共同定位或非共同定位）。 对于在下行链路和/或上行链路上选择用于数据传输的每组用户终端，从系统支持的多个空间复用模式中，为用户终端机选择空间复用模式。

Abstract: Spatial spreading is performed in a multi-antenna system to randomize an “effective” channel observed by a receiving entity for each transmitted data symbol block. For a MIMO system, at a transmitting entity, data is processed (e.g., encoded, interleaved, and modulated) to obtain ND data symbol blocks to be transmitted in NM transmission spans, where ND≥1 and NM>1. The ND blocks are partitioned into NM data symbol subblocks, one subblock for each transmission span. A steering matrix is selected (e.g., in a deterministic or pseudo-random manner from among a set of L steering matrices, where L>1) for each subblock. Each data symbol subblock is spatially processed with the steering matrix selected for that subblock to obtain transmit symbols, which are further processed and transmitted via NT transmit antennas in one transmission span. The ND data symbol blocks are thus spatially processed with NM steering matrices and observe an ensemble of channels.
