Precoding is a generalization of beamforming to support multi-stream (or multi-layer) transmission in multi-antenna wireless communications. In conventional single-stream beamforming, the same signal is emitted from each of the transmit antennas with appropriate weighting (phase and gain) such that the signal power is maximized at the receiver output. When the receiver has multiple antennas, single-stream beamforming cannot simultaneously maximize the signal level at all of the receive antennas. In order to maximize the throughput in multiple receive antenna systems, multi-stream transmission is generally required.

A system and machine-implemented method are described for performing precoding interpolation in a DIDO system which employs orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and DIDO precoding to communicate with a plurality of distributed-input-distributed-output (DIDO) clients. For example, a system according to one embodiment of the invention comprises: selecting a first subset of ODFM tones to determine a first subset of precoding weights; deriving a second subset of precoding weights for a second subset of ODFM tones by interpolating between the first subset of precoding weights; and using a combination of the first subset of precoding weights and the second subset of precoding weights to precode a data stream prior to transmitting the data stream to a DIDO client.

Method and apparatus for adaptively compensating channel or system variations in precoded communications system
InactiveUS6400761B1Reduce distractionsImprove performanceMultiple-port networksDelay line applicationsPrecodingCommunications system
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for adaptively compensating for channel or system variations in which adaptive compensation is used in the receiver of a digital communication system. The transmitter of the digital communication system includes precoding. The adaptive receiver compensation mitigates the interferences not removed by the transmitter precoder. In an embodiment of the invention, the adaptive compensation can be performed using an adaptive feedforward filter (FFF) and a feedback filter (FBF) in the receiver. The FBF output is generated based on previous values of estimates of the transmitted precoded sequence. The determined value of the FBF coefficients can be periodically relayed to the transmitter to update the precoder coefficients of the transmitter. Alternatively, the value of the FBF coefficients can be relayed to the transmitter after the value of the coefficients exceeds a predetermined threshold. Accordingly, the receiver adaptively and automatically compensates for misadjustments of the fixed transmitter precoder with respect to the actual channel at a given point in time.

Feedback reduction for MIMO precoded system by exploiting channel correlation
ActiveUS20080080459A1Special service provision for substationMultiplex system selection arrangementsPrecodingCommunications system
In a closed-loop wireless communication system, a codebook-based precoding feedback compression mechanism is provided to remove redundancy from the precoding feedback that is caused by channel correlation in time and frequency. Redundancy due to temporal correlation of the transmission channel is removed by sending precoding feedback only if there is a change in the precoder state for the channel to the receiver. Redundancy due to frequency correlation is removed by run length encoding the precoding feedback, thereby compressing the precoding feedback prior in the frequency domain. By compressing the precoding feedback, the average rate of precoder feedback is reduced.

A precoded orthogonal frequency division multiplexer (OFDM) system that improves the preformance of OFDM systems for spectral null channels, and size K×1 vector OFDM systems that reduce the cyclic prefix length by K times compared to conventional OFDM systems. The precoding scheme comprises inserting one or more zeros between each of the two sets of K consecutive information symbols, although it can be generalized to a general form. This precoding scheme removes the spectral nulls of an ISI channel without knowing the ISI channel. When no zero is inserts between each of the two sets of K consecutive information symbols and only K consecutive symbols are blocked together, vector OFDM systems are obtained. The bit error rate performance of the vector OFDM systems of the present invention is much improved over conventional OFDM systems.
