  • Patent number: 8660199
    Abstract: To demodulate a quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) signal, a reception point is determined corresponding to a symbol in the QAM signal that is received where the symbol is mapped to one reference point of a plurality of reference points in a rotated constellation and the plurality of reference points are represented by an in-phase (I) coordinate and a quadrature-phase (Q) coordinate. A plurality of candidate points corresponding to a portion of the plurality of reference points are selected based on distances between the reception point and the respective reference points. The reception point is demapped by calculating a plurality of log-likelihood ratios based on the plurality of candidate points, the plurality of log-likelihood ratios corresponding to bits of data represented by the reception point.

  • Patent number: 8607119
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a system for transmitting and receiving control information of an Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) system, wherein the control information consists of information bits and parity bits. A base station transmits the control information including the location information for where the control information of the other terminal is transmitted. A terminal receives the control information of the other terminal based on the location information for where the control information of the other terminal is received. Therefore, the precoding matrix of the other terminal can be obtained from the received control information. The invention enables the removal of interference through the obtained precoding matrix when receiving a data symbol in an environment where a channel is not in a good state.

  • Patent number: 8121212
    Abstract: Respective codewords of quantization codebooks corresponding to a number of data streams are selected based on channel information estimated by a received training symbol. A stream mode is selected among stream modes to determine a modulation method applied to each data stream. The data stream is detected by using the codeword corresponding to the quantization codebook of the data stream corresponding to the selected stream mode as a precode matrix, and the detected data stream is modulated. In this case, a receiving apparatus performs a feedback operation so that indexes of the selected stream mode and the codeword used as the precode matrix may be transmitted to the transmitting apparatus. The transmitting apparatus selects the number of transmitted data streams and the modulation method based on the transmitted index of feedback streams by the feedback operation.
