Aspects of the system may include a transmitting station that enables determination of values for a plurality of matrix elements, which are represented in a steering matrix (Q). The contents of the steering matrix may be determined based on the contents of a plurality of protocol data units (PDU). Each of the PDUs may comprise a sounding frame. One or more space-time signals may be generated based on the plurality of PDUs. One or more transmit chain signals may be generated by multiplying a vector representation, which comprises the one or more space-time signals, by the steering matrix. One or more transmit chain signals may be transmitted via transmitting antennas selected from a plurality of transmitting antennas.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting a signal in a communication system using at least two transmit antennas are provided. The signal detection method and apparatus includes selecting a symbol corresponding to a lowest branch metric from among symbols, the number of which corresponds to a modulation scheme, determining a candidate symbol by extending a process of selecting a symbol corresponding to a lowest branch metric from among the selected symbols, to a number which is less by one than the number of the transmit antennas, setting an accumulated branch metric of the candidate symbol as a threshold, removing a symbol having an accumulated branch metric higher than the threshold, and selecting, as a last received symbol, a symbol corresponding to a path having the lowest accumulated branch metric among paths selected without being removed until a last stage.

    Abstract: A rotation by a phase offset is applied to symbols to be transmitted by one antenna relative to symbols to be transmitted from another antenna in a wireless communication system employing multi-element antennas at the transmitter. Such a phase offset allows the functionality of a MIMO system to be maintained when a MIMO channel degenerates. Advantageously, a MIMO system using the new signal design may provide a level of performance in a rich-scattering environment that is equivalent to a MIMO system using a known signal design. Furthermore, a MIMO system employing embodiments of the present invention may show significantly improvements in robustness over conventional MIMO systems.

    Abstract: A Hybrid IMMSE-LMMSE receiver processing technique predicts performance of and selects between iterative and non-iterative decoding of symbols based on an intelligent metric. Based on a pre-specified criterion, the receiver determines if a correct first-stage decision is made or not. If a correct decision is made, then it follows iterative processing like in BLAST. Alternatively, if a wrong decision is found to have occurred, the receiver resorts to LMMSE estimation processing.

    Abstract: A wireless communication system is disclosed wherein an information source communicates with a mobile station via multiple intermediary base stations located in respective cells of a broadcast zone. In one embodiment, each base station sends multiple information streams that may be received by a mobile station located in the broadcast zone. By receiving multiple information streams from multiple base stations, the mobile station may enhance reception. In one embodiment, a base station transmits an information stream that includes a base layer and another information stream including an enhanced layer. If a receiver in a mobile station receives an enhanced layer with more than a predetermined amount of quality, then the receiver uses information in the received enhanced layer to supplement information in the received base layer.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for simultaneously providing service to users each having a different number of antennas in a multiple-antenna wireless communication system are provided. The communication method discloses a BS in a wireless communication system that services a first multiple antenna mode using X transmit antennas and a second multiple antenna mode using Y transmit antennas such that (Y>X), the BS determines an MS to be serviced in the second multiple antenna mode and receives a sounding signal from the MS. The BS estimates an uplink channel using the received sounding signal and acquires downlink channel values using estimated uplink channel values. Then the BS services the MS in the second multiple antenna mode using the downlink channel values.
