  • Patent number: 11050449
    Abstract: A system and method for frame structure compliant adaptive extensionless windowing that maximizes fair proportional network capacity in the download. Gains are provided by emulating the multipath multiple access channel to the base station to calculate almost-optimum transmitter windowing durations prior to transmission and using the variance of received symbols using different window durations to allow the user equipment nodes to estimate optimal receiver windowing durations without calculations requiring further knowledge about the network.

  • Patent number: 10644771
    Abstract: A system and method for increasing the capacity of a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system at desired user's locations and reducing the capacity at locations, other than that of the desired user, while also providing secrecy. Knowing the channel coefficient between each transmitter and receiver antenna pair at the transmitter, the method of the present invention calculates the artificial signal that minimizes the Euclidean distance between the desired and received data symbols if the precoding/combining matrix pair from the set that has the minimum Euclidean distance to the singular value decomposition (SVD) of the channel matrix is used for transmission and reception. The artificial signal may be fed to the precoder, instead of the actual desired data symbols, or may be transmitted directly to reduce computational complexity, power consumption and processing delay if the hardware configuration allows.

  • Patent number: 10547489
    Abstract: System and method based upon an OFDM symbol, including a cyclic prefix (CP), that is received after being transmitted over a multiple access channel, wherein the CP is removed, and a Hann window is applied to the symbol. FFT is then applied to the Hann windowed symbol to obtain the frequency domain subcarriers. The pilot symbols are filtered accordingly to obtain Hann windowed pilots to estimate effective channel. Inter-carrier interference is calculated and removed.

  • Patent number: 10476705
    Abstract: Adaptive windowing of insufficient cyclic prefix (CP) for joint minimization of intersymbol interference (ISI) and adjacent channel interference (ACI) is provided. The proposed subcarrier specific windowing scheme improves the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) even when the cyclic prefix (CP) is insufficient. Average optimal window lengths depend only on the power density profiles (PDPs), and although instantaneous optimal window lengths depend on users' channel impulse responses (CIRs), fluctuation is little. Therefore, subcarrier specific windowing outperforms fixed windowing, even with outdated window lengths in the case of powerful interferers.
