Abstract:
A method and apparatus for de-mapping a symbol modulated by a high order quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) are disclosed. A transmitting wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) maps N input bits to one of 2N symbols in a 2N-QAM constellation. A receiving WTRU receives a signal and generates a sample of the received signal. A soft bit value of the most significant bit (MSB) is calculated based on a value of the sample. A magnitude of the soft bit value of the MSB is subtracted from a threshold. The threshold is initially set with respect to the QAM order, N. A soft bit value of the next MSB is calculated based on the subtraction results. The calculation and subtraction steps are repeated for the next MSB until soft bit values of all the remaining bits are obtained while diving the threshold by 2 each iteration.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for implementing spatial processing with unequal modulation and coding schemes (MCSs) or stream-dependent MCSs are disclosed. Input data may be parsed into a plurality of data streams, and spatial processing is performed on the data streams to generate a plurality of spatial streams. An MCS for each data stream is selected independently. The spatial streams are transmitted via multiple transmit antennas. At least one of the techniques of space time block coding (STBC), space frequency block coding (SFBC), quasi-orthogonal Alamouti coding, time reversed space time block coding, linear spatial processing and cyclic delay diversity (CDD) may be performed on the data/spatial streams. An antennal mapping matrix may then be applied to the spatial streams. The spatial streams are transmitted via multiple transmit antennas. The MCS for each data stream may be determined based on a signal-to-noise ratio of each spatial stream associated with the data stream.
Abstract:
In a wireless communication system, a method and apparatus for noise estimation of a received OFDM communication signal, wherein the signal comprises a data frame with a preamble having at least one long training field (LTF) containing two identical OFDM symbols comprise examining the LTF for identical OFDM symbols. The noise power in the signal is estimated and the received signal power is measured. The signal to noise ratio is calculated and the signal power is determined by subtracting the noise power from the signal noise.

Abstract:
Se revela un método y aparato para la implementacion del procesamiento espacial con esquemas de codificacion y modulacion (MCS) variables o MCS que depende de la corriente. Los datos de entrada pueden ser analizados en una variedad de corrientes de datos, y el procesamiento espacial se realiza en las corrientes de datos para generar una pluralidad de corrientes espaciales. Se selecciona independientemente un MCS para cada corriente de datos. Las corrientes espaciales se transmiten por antenas transmisoras multiples. Al menos una de las técnicas de la codificacion de bloque espacio temporal (STBC), codificacion de bloque de frecuencia de espacio (SFBC), codificacion de Alamaouti cuasiortogonal, codificacion del bloque espacio temporal de inversion cronologica, procesamiento espacial lineal y diversidad de demora cíclica (CDD), puede realizarse en la corriente espacial o de datos. Entonces se aplica una matriz de asignacion por antena a las corrientes espaciales. Las corrientes espaciales se transmiten por antenas transmisoras multiples. El MCS para cada corriente de datos puede ser determinado basándose en una SNR de cada corriente espacial asociada con la corriente de datos.
