  • Patent number: 11528060
    Abstract: A wireless apparatus is configured such that: a correlation calculation unit calculates a correlation coefficient for signals received from respective antennas; and a cyclic shift control unit compares the correlation coefficient with a threshold value. If the correlation coefficient is equal to or higher than the threshold value, the cyclic shift control unit determines that there is a direct wave, allocates a common shift amount to a cyclic shift unit, and causes a beam forming unit to form and transmit a narrow beam. Meanwhile, if the correlation coefficient is lower than the threshold value, the cyclic shift control unit determines that there is no direct wave, allocates different shift amounts to the cyclic shift unit, and causes the cyclic shift unit to diversify the cyclic shift.

    Abstract: [Problem] To propose a technology capable of appropriately demodulating, in a receiving device, a plurality of pieces of data multiplexed through the quasi-synchronous LDM method. [Solution] A transmission device generates a UL modulated signal by using an IFFT process of NUL points, generates an LL modulated signal by using an IFFT process of NLL points different from the NUL points, and transmits signals obtained by timing-adjusting the modulated signals such that the start timings thereof coincide with each other in a predetermined cycle, and combining the timing-adjusted signals at a predetermined power ratio. In addition, the receiving device performs an NUL point FFT process on the reception signal from the transmitting device, reproduces UL and generates UL reception replica, on the basis of the result, and performs an NLL point FFT process on a signal obtained by subtracting the UL reception replica from the reception signal, and reproduces LL on the basis of the result.
