Abstract:
For future wireless systems, it is desired to keep network implementation aspects, such as transmission point selection, precoder selection, etc, transparent to the terminal. This means that terminals are envisaged to be unaware of e.g. from which specific network node a transmission is made. This may be referred to as the transparency principle. The proposed solution comprises enabling a receiver to determine a type of antenna association that may be assumed in regard of two blocks of information, based on the result of the decoding of e.g. the first data block. The determination is done in a way such that the principle of transparency is not broken.
