  • Patent number: 8699478
    Abstract: A pilot frequency transmitting method comprises: in a downlink frame, a base station transmitting a MIMO midamble on the jth symbol of the ith downlink subframe; wherein i is a natural number which is less than or equal to the maximum number of downlink subframes included in the downlink frame, and j is a natural number which is less than or equal to the maximum number of symbols included in the downlink subframe. Accordingly, the present invention also provides a pilot frequency transmitting method and a base station for transmitting a MIMO midamble. The present invention can obtain a better effect for channel measurement by selecting an appropriate transmitting opportunity and/or manner of the MIMO midamble.

  • Patent number: 8553642
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for solving non-controllability of terminal's power spectrum density in OFDMA system. It considers the problem of non-controllability of terminal's carrier transmit power resulting from the indeterminacy of carrier number allocation to the terminal in the OFDMA system which is solved by introducing the maximum carrier number that can be allocated to the terminal by combing AMC, the power control and the dispatching. By applying the present invention, the carrier power of the terminal can be best controlled by the system, it is most possible for the terminal to transmit power on carrier completely according to a set value, while it is greatly reduced the possibility that the terminal's power spectrum density is suddenly decreased out of control, which is caused by the summation of carrier powers in the set value exceeding the maximum total transmit power.

  • Publication number: 20130235842
    Abstract: The disclosure discloses a method for coordinating downlink MIMO precoding among multiple BSs, including that: each BS first performs independent resource allocation to allocate resources to users of each BS, then receives PMI information fed back by a time-frequency resource block occupying MS in a respective cell, wherein the PMI information includes optimal and recommended or restrained PMIs corresponding to an MS; adjacent BSs perform information interaction with each other to acquire PMI information of MSs occupying the same time-frequency resource block in adjacent cells; and it is determined whether there is any conflict between MSs occupying the same time-frequency resource block in adjacent cells according to PMI information fed back by an MS in the current cell and interaction information from adjacent BSs, and a new PM is generated in a corresponding manner. The disclosure also discloses a device for implementing the method.

  • Publication number: 20120281781
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and a system for transmitting data using the collaborative multiple input multiple output (MIMO) beamforming. The method comprises: selecting an MIMO mode according to channel quality information (CQI) (S502); performing the MIMO encoding on a data stream according to the selected MIMO mode, and distributing the encoded data stream to a plurality of transmitting ends which are mutual collaborative (S504); and transmitting, by the plurality of transmitting ends, the encoded data stream (S506). The present invention solves the problem in the relevant art of reducing the system performance and the flexibility, which is caused by adopting the fixed MIMO mode when the system carries out the encoding and the transmission, which is capable of improving the system performance.
