  • Patent number: 11005548
    Abstract: A multi-antenna system includes: a server; a first antenna group, provided on a base station and including multiple first antennas including a first representative antenna and a first non-representative antenna, the base station performing intra-group channel estimation to obtain and transmit to the server multiple first inner channel estimation coefficients between the first representative antenna and the first non-representative antenna, and serving a user device; and a reference device, communicating with the server and the first antennas, performing channel estimation between the reference device and the first representative antenna to obtain and transmit to the server multiple first outer channel estimation coefficients between the reference device and the first representative antenna. The server calculates a precoding matrix according to the first inner and first outer channel estimation coefficients, and the base station performs data transmission with the user device according to the precoding matrix.

  • Patent number: 10911919
    Abstract: A wireless access method for a communication system is provided. The wireless access method is adapted to a base station, and includes the following steps. A first control information is transmitted through a first frequency band. A second control information is transmitted through a second frequency band. The time difference between the transmission time points of the first control information and the second control information is less than a slot time, and the first frequency band is different from the second frequency band.

  • Publication number: 20200204414
    Abstract: A communication device and a transmitting and receiving method thereof. The communication device configured to transmit a first signal includes a code block (CB) segmentation unit, a plurality of first processing units, and a first resource mapping module. The CB segmentation unit is configured to divide at least one first transport block corresponding to the first signal into a plurality of first code blocks. Each of the first code blocks corresponds to one of the first processing units. The first processing units encode the first code blocks to obtain a plurality of first symbols. The resource mapping module performs resource mapping of the first symbols to obtain a first resource block.
