Abstract: Disclosed is a MIMO system including a transmitter and a receiver, in which an overall BER characteristic is improved. The transmitter (1) maps data, distributed among transmit antennas, onto an IQ plane to generate carrier symbols, and then, applies an inter-polarization interleave processing in a time direction to the carrier symbols between the transmit antennas, to generate OFDM signals. Receiving the OFDM signals, the receiver (2) demodulates the OFDM signals to generate complex baseband signals, and after that, applies a first deinterleave processing in a time direction to the complex baseband signals to generate time deinterleaved data. Further, the receiver (2) applies a MIMO separation processing to the time deinterleaved data to generate a plurality of sets of MIMO separated data and applies a second deinterleave processing between the receive antennas to the plurality of sets of MIMO separated data, so as to generate carrier symbols.

Abstract: A transmission apparatus configured to transmit four OFDM signals from four transmission antennas includes: a pilot signal insertion unit configured to generate four types of OFDM symbols by inserting pilot signals of different patterns into four types of transmission signals; and an OFDM signal generation unit configured to generate four OFDM signals by modulating respective carriers of the four types of OFDM symbols.

Abstract: In a MIMO system performing MIMO transmission using a plurality of antennas, BER characteristics are improved. A transmission device includes a mapping unit that maps a transmission signal onto the IQ plane to generate carrier-modulated carrier symbols, a frequency/transmit antenna interleaving unit (frequency/polarized wave interleaving unit) that interleaves the carrier symbols in the frequency domain and between transmit antennas to generate interleaved data for each transmit antenna, and an output processing unit that constructs an OFDM frame for the interleaved data for each transmit antenna and transmits an OFDM signal via the transmit antennas.
