  • Patent number: 9083403
    Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a wireless signal is transmitted to a remote device. The remote device determines a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) in response to the wireless signal based at least in part on a hierarchical codebook. The PMI is then received as reported back from the remote device.

  • Patent number: 8934567
    Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, in response to receiving a wireless communication signal, a non-uniform codebook is generated based at least in part on one or more characteristics of the received wireless communication signal for quantization and communication back to a source of the received signal. The non-uniform codebook may be generated by selecting a suitable uniform codebook based at least in part on the one or more characteristics of the received wireless communication signal, and supplementing the uniform codebook with additional codewords to generate the non-uniform codebook.

  • Patent number: 7881391
    Abstract: Embodiments of an OFDM receiver and methods for decoding OFDM symbols of two or more data streams with reduced multiplication operations are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. In some embodiments, one or more terms of a modified L2-squared-norm cost function are precomputed and stored for predetermined complex symbol values of one or more tones of OFDM symbols prior to performing a searching process. During the searching process, the cost function is computed using the precomputed terms and received data symbols using shifting and adding operations, rather than multiplication operations. In other embodiments, non-L2-squared-norm cost functions are used.

  • Patent number: 7609792
    Abstract: A multichip transceiver operates as part of a multiple-input multiple-output communication system. First receiver circuitry on a first integrated circuit processes radio-frequency (RF) signals received from a first signal source, and second receiver circuitry on a second integrated circuit processes RF signals received from a second signal source. Clock-signal generating circuitry provides clock signals through phase-matched paths to the first and second receiver circuitry.
