A method of communication of data in a mobile telecommunications network involves at a transmitter first grouping the data into a first sequence of bits and a second sequence of bits. There is then a step of modulating a signal with the bits of the first sequence so that the bits of the first sequence have a first level of communication error protection provided by the modulation and with the bits of the second sequence so that the bits of the second sequence have a second level of communication error protection provided by the modulation less than the first level of communication error protection. The signal is then transmitted. At a receiver, estimates of the bits of the first sequence from the signal are detected and contributions to the signal corresponding to the estimates are determined and cancelled from the signal so as to produce a modified signal. Estimates of the bits of the second sequence are then detected from the modified signal.

The invention belongs to the technical field of wireless communication and discloses a standard-orthogonalization-based hybrid pre-coding method for a large-scale MIMO system. Analog pre-coding design is based on equal-gain transmission. The phase of a main diagonal element of a baseband equivalent channel matrix is set to zero to obtain the maximum antenna array gain so as to reduce the total energy consumption and complexity of a transmitter. The design of a digital pre-coding matrix is based on standard orthogonalization and singular value decomposition. By mapping a desired user to other user null space, the interference between users is completely eliminated and the maximum spectral efficiency is obtained. A numerical result shows that the performance of the hybrid pre-coding method, when equipped with a small number of radiofrequency links, approaches that of an all-digital pre-coding solution that requires the same number of radiofrequency links as the antennas, and can obtain high spectral efficiency with low implementation complexity.
