  • Patent number: 11936471
    Abstract: A high-dimensional non-orthogonal transmission method is provided. In the method, signals of various users are mapped to form high-dimensional signals, and the high-dimensional signals are pre-coded, such that non-orthogonal transmission is realized in a higher dimension. Moreover, different users perform matched receiving on respective signals, and non-orthogonal transmission signals can be recovered merely by means of a receiver with a linear complexity. By means of the method, multi-user data non-orthogonal transmission can be realized without depending on conditions such as user pairing and collaboration, and various users do not need to perform iterative feedback, such that the detection complexity of non-orthogonal multi-user signals is significantly reduced.
