Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatus and computer readable storage medium for controlling data retransmission in a multi-user system. A method comprises determining whether data transferred by any of multiple users are received unsuccessfully.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to over-the-air, OTA, reciprocity calibration for a distributed multiple input-multiple output, D-MIMO, system. By having antennas of the system divided in two separate groups, based on pairwise path loss, and by performing two measurements only, one of which is transmitting by the first group and simultaneously receiving by the second group, and the second by transmitting by the second group and simultaneously receiving by the first group, relations between receiver and transmitter impairments used in the measurements are determined, assuming reciprocity. By relating receive to transmitter impairments for each antenna relative to one or more anchor antennas, calibration values are calculated. By adjusting a quota of the receiver to the transmitter impairment for each antenna such that the relations are fulfilled, reciprocity calibration is achieved, based on two measurements only.

Abstract: An anti-interference signal detection and synchronization method for a wireless broadband communication system. The method uses the peak value of a cross-correlation value of a received signal and a local sequence as a basis for determining signal detection and system synchronization.
