Selecting Modulation And Coding Level And Spatial Rate For Orthogonal Frequency Domain Modulation Systems

View page
US Patent:
7680206, Mar 16, 2010
Filed:
Jan 31, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/701072
Inventors:
Djordje Tujkovic - Santa Clara CA, US
Erik Lindskog - Santa Clara CA, US
Vara Prasad - Santa Clara CA, US
Erik Westman - Santa Clara CA, US
Assignee:
BECEEM Communications Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H04B 7/02
US Classification:
375267, 375347
Abstract:
Embodiments are directed to a link adaptation method that selects the optimum transmission scheme and modulation and coding signal (MCS) level within a MIMO system, based on optimal maximum throughput on the channels. The method selects the MCS levels and spatial rate values for broadband communication systems based on the instantaneous broadband MIMO-OFDM signaling capacities. The transmission rate over the transmission channel is selected based on a comparison of the capacities achieved under diversity coding and spatial multiplexing MIMO transmission schemes. The effect of a particular receiver type or implementation can also be factored into the signaling capacity. For a fixed target probability of error, the scheme or spatial rate that has the higher instantaneous throughput is selected for transmission.

Abstract:
Embodiments described herein include methods for improving the SINR, and therefore communication quality or rate, in the downlink of a cellular communication system. In an embodiment, the system is an orthogonal-frequency-division multiple-access (OFDMA) system. In an embodiment, a set of terminals is designated a coordinated-transmission group. The set of terminal is chosen such that the slot-allocations of the set are given special treatment to alleviate interference from other sectors or cells. All terminals within a coordination group generally use the same slot, but embodiments are not so limited.

Filed:
Apr 26, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/796497
Inventors:
Djordje Tujkovic - Santa Clara CA, US
Louay Jalloul - Santa Clara CA, US
Sam P. Alex - Santa Clara CA, US
Javvadi Varaprasad - Santa Clara CA, US
Assignee:
BECEEM Communications Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H04W 72/00
H04B 1/38
H04M 1/00
H04W 4/00
US Classification:
455450, 455561, 4555621, 4554521, 370329, 370332, 370334
Abstract:
A method and system of training a communication system is disclosed. The method includes a first transceiver transmitting signals through one or more antennas of the first transceiver. A second transceiver selects a subset of a plurality of antennas of the second transceiver, wherein the selected subset provides a largest aggregate received signal power. The second transceiver transmits pilots on a subset of sub-carriers of multi-carrier signals through the selected subset of the plurality of antennas of the second transceiver. The first transceiver receives the pilots, and extracts channel knowledge from the received pilots.

Measuring Noise Power At Wireless Receivers Using Pilot Symbol Information

View page
US Patent:
7835432, Nov 16, 2010
Filed:
Apr 19, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/788265
Inventors:
Djordje Tujkovic - Santa Clara CA, US
Ying Xia - Santa Clara CA, US
Robert Lorenz - Santa Clara CA, US
Sriram Mudulodu - Santa Clara CA, US
Assignee:
BECEEM Communications Inc - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H04B 3/46
H04B 17/00
H04Q 1/20
US Classification:
375224, 370341
Abstract:
Embodiments are directed to a wireless receiver system that utilizes a special structure of pilot symbols used for synchronization and channel estimation in transmission packets to measure noise power at the receiver. The periodicity of the pilot signal sequences is used to extract the noise power from the received signal. Such extraction is achieved by subtracting the received signals from two pilot slots which are separated by the known periodicity of the training sequence. This method relies on the fact that desired signal and system interference signals will cancel out after the subtraction process. Measuring the power of the residual signal after subtraction represents the estimate of the noise power. Several consecutive such residual signals can be first summed up before measuring the power to improve the estimate of the noise power at the receiver. To further improve the performance, estimates of the desired signal produced by a channel estimation block can be first subtracted from each of the received signals on two pilot slots which are then to be subtracted and are separated by the known periodicity of the pilot sequence.
