  • Patent number: 11165616
    Abstract: A base station configured to operate in accordance with a periodically repeated synchronization period is provided. The synchronization period comprises a plurality of successive pilot slots, the pilot slots being associated with groups of base stations in a one-to-one relationship. The base station is configured to be a member of a first group among the groups of base stations and to transmit, in each repetition of the synchronization period, one or more pilot signals in the pilot slot associated with the first group.

  • Patent number: 10355904
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a transmitter and receivers for filterbank multicarrier (FBMC) communication. The transmitter comprises a processor adapted to calculate two auxiliary pilot symbols, and a precoder adapted to insert the two calculated auxiliary pilot symbols into a symbol structure of symbols, the symbols adjacently surrounding a main pilot symbol, wherein the precoder is adapted to insert the two auxiliary pilot symbols at two symbol positions of the symbol structure, which are symmetric to the main pilot symbol P in a time domain and/or in a frequency domain.
