Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and apparatus for generating feedback in multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) communications. Feedback is used to update a precoding matrix.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for processing feedback implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprises estimating a channel matrix. The effective channel is calculated and a precoding matrix is selected. Feedback bits are generated and transmitted.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus includes an WTRU-specific reference signal scheme that provides efficient precoded pilot transmission and effective channel estimation using dedicated pilot signals. The method is efficient for both a single user (SU) and a multi user (MU) Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system.
Abstract:
The present invention is related to a receiver having a plurality of antennas for receiving and performing hybrid timing and frequency offset on at least one signal that includes at least one synchronization channel (SCH) symbol having a plurality of time domain repetitive blocks. The receiver further includes an auto-correlation unit that outputs an auto-correlation result and the power of the received signal, a coarse timing detection unit that generates a coarse timing metric, a frequency offset estimation unit that generates a coarse frequency offset metric based on the coarse timing metric and the received signal, a frequency offset compensation unit that generates a compensated version of the received signal, and a fine tuning detection unit that generates a fine tuning detection metric based on a sample of the compensated version of the received signal that is cross-correlated with a primary synchronization channel (P-SCH) code sequence.
Abstract:
In a communications system with a wireless transmit/receive unit and a cell, a method for transmission of a broadcast channel is presented. The method contains the steps of generating a broadcast signal, processing said broadcast signal according to a modified spatial frequency block coding scheme, and broadcasting the processed signal to a wireless transmit/receive unit.
Abstract:
A system and method for providing variable security levels in a wireless communication network. The present invention optimizes the often conflicting demands of highly secure wireless communications and high speed wireless communications. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, various security sensors are scanned to determine the likely presence of an intruder within a predetermined trust zone. If an intruder is likely present, the security level is changed to the highest setting, and consequently a lower data rate, while the intruder is identified. If the identified intruder is in fact a trusted node, the security level is returned to a lower setting. If the identified intruder is not a trusted node, the security level is maintained at an elevated state while the intruder is within the trust zone.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for processing feedback implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprises estimating a channel matrix. The effective channel is calculated and a precoding matrix is selected. Feedback bits are generated and transmitted. The feedback bits relate to non-differential or differential feedback or a combination thereof, or the feedback is a binary sign bit alone or in combination with non-differential feedback.
