Multiple carrier signal transmission method for parallel transmission over several sub channels

A utilization scheme is determined which specifies the use of sub channels for data transmission by assigning channels which comprise only noise as unused channels, and channels on which profit signal is received as used channels. The method involves transmitting data in parallel in form of a signal on several sub-channels over a transmission path between a transmitter and a receiver. A transmission function is determined for each sub-channel in the receiver. The sub-channels are rated according to their respective transmission function with respect to their fitness for a data transmission, and a first amount of the best sub-channels are released for the data transmission, while the remaining sub-channels are blocked. The receiver determines a respective utilization scheme which specifies the sub-channels with data and the sub-channels without data, by assigning channels which comprise only noise as unused channels, and channels, on which a profit signal is received, as used channels.

Cross-channel interference measurement and bit allocation in a DMT system with imperfect TEQ

The invention relates to a method of determining cross channel interference in a Discrete Multitone (DMT) implementation of a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) system. The cross channel interference is determined utilizing a residual impulse spectrum after implementation of a Time Equalization (TEQ) algorithm. In one application the cross channel interference value is used in a bit allocation algorithm to improve error rate such that more bits are allocated to the channels with low interference and fewer bits are allocated to those channels having high interference. In this application the bit allocation algorithm is run twice, once before the interference measurement and once after. The residual impulse spectrum is derived by taking a Fourier Transform of the impulse response coefficients which remain after zeroing of the coefficients corresponding to a cyclic prefix inserted in the data stream. Applications include DSL and ADSL systems.

Channel estimation method and system for inter-carrier interference-limited wireless communication network

A method and system for wireless communication channel estimation. A frequency offset hypothesis is determined. An interchannel interference ("ICI") matrix based on the frequency offset hypothesis is generated. Pilot channel estimates based on the ICI matrix are obtained. A correlation error of the pilot channel estimates to the frequency offset hypothesis is calculated. The correlation error is compared with a predetermined correlation error value. The frequency offset hypothesis is updated and the aforementioned steps are iteratively repeated if the correlation error is greater than the predetermined correlation error value. The pilot channel estimates are used to estimate the wireless communication channel.

Optimal pilot symbol design/placement in spatial and delay correlated MIMO OFDM channels

Prior art systems tend to assume uncorrelated channels which result in equispaced pilots being optimal. The invention acknowledges that real world channels are often correlated and presents an efficient sub-optimal formula for determining pilot positioning and symbol type. The formula (see Figure) utilises channel statistics, in particular the space delay channel correlation matrix Rh(aka channel covariance matrix) and noise variance No. This formula is suitable for low SNR situations. For high SNR situations the alternative formula of Fig. 6 is used which omits the need for the noise variance. In practical systems both formulae can be used and the best pilots selected from the two results (see Fig. 7). Since only channel statistics are used the signalling is reduced compared to transmitting the full channel estimate.

Switching to alternative communication channels to enhance reliability in shared bands

Channel reliability for mobile communications deployed on shared bands (e.g. TV white space) is enhanced by switching to alternative channels in the event that a current channel becomes unusable. A list of channels useable for communication is maintained and if a currently used channel becomes unusable, for example due to interference, a switch to one of the channels in the list is prompted. The list is constructed at a network node S10 and includes channel bandwidths and centre frequencies (fig. 3), wherein at least one of the bandwidth and centre frequency are configured by the node. At least one entry on the list comprises a code indicative of a relationship between a centre frequency of a channel on the list and a centre frequency of another channel (e.g. TV channel). The channel list may be updated and distributed to communication terminals.

In an example of the teachings disclosed herein, there are multiple signaling options available for triggering a bundled transmission by a wireless device, and a known association between the different signaling options and different TTI bundling sizes. A network node thus indicates to the wireless device which TTI bundling size is desired, based on choosing which signaling option it uses to trigger the bundled transmission. Such signaling allows for the use of variable TTI bundle sizes, i.e., dynamic control of the TTI bundle size used by the wireless device for transmission and yet does not impose signaling overhead or necessarily require new signaling messages or types. Higher layer signaling may be used to activate TTI bundling with implicit signaling then used to dynamically control the actual TTI bundle size used. 128-. (canceled)29. A method at network node in a wireless communication network , for dynamically controlling a Transmission Time Interval (TTI) bundle size used by a wireless device for a bundled transmission by the wireless device , the method comprising:determining a desired TTI bundle size to be used by the wireless device for the bundled transmission;selecting a signaling option to be used for triggering the bundled transmission by the wireless device, based on the desired TTI bundle size and a defined mapping between different signaling options among a number of signaling options and different TTI bundle sizes in a defined set of TTI bundle sizes, wherein the defined mapping is known at the network node and at the wireless device; andindicating the desired TTI bundle size to the wireless device by triggering the bundled transmission using the selected signaling option.30. The method of claim 29 , wherein determining the desired TTI bundle size comprises selecting a defined TTI bundle size from the defined set of TTI bundle sizes based on knowledge of the reception conditions associated with the wireless device claim 29 , as determined from one ...
