Patent number: 8175062Abstract: In a communication system, a first transmitting station transmits a transmission signal to a first receiving station for transmitting a sequence of data via a radio interface. The radio interface is monitored with respect to an interference signal from an interference source prior to transmission via at least one of the first transmitting station and the first receiving station. The transmission only begins if the radio interface is sufficiently free from interference for a moment in time.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2008Date of Patent: May 8, 2012Assignee: Nokia Siemens Networks GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 8111660Abstract: A method transmits data by radio during which a frequency band is split into a plurality of subcarriers, and a plurality of antennas are used for transmitting. The data are split into a number of elements, which are to be respectively transmitted by each antenna, said number of elements corresponding to the number of subcarriers, whereby for each antenna, each element is respectively assigned to a subcarrier for transmitting, and at least two antennas on at least one subcarrier transmit different elements. Before an OFDM modulation for each antenna, each element is multiplied by an antenna-specific and element-specific factor. Alternatively, after an OFDM modulation for at least one antenna, the time sequence of the time-dependent signal generated on the basis of the OFDM modulation is reordered. A transmitter carries out the method.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2004Date of Patent: February 7, 2012Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Martin Bossert, Elena Costa, Axel Hübner, Matthias Lott, Egon Schulz
