Abstract: A wireless device configured to process Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) data streams. The wireless device includes a Singular Value Decompostion (SVD) engine configured to diagonalize a channel matrix into a precoding matrix; an SVD rotation engine configured to phase-rotate the precoding matrix, such that the channel matrix is partially de-diagnalized; and a transmitter configured to transmit a data packet corresponding to the phase-rotated precoding matrix.

Abstract: Embodiments of an access point (AP), station (STA) and method for subcarrier scaling are generally described herein. The AP may transmit a high efficiency (HE) physical layer convergence procedure (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) that includes a legacy long training field (L-LTF), a legacy signal (L-SIG) field, and an HE signal (HE-SIG) field. The HE-SIG may be based on HE-SIG symbols mapped to a group of HE subcarriers that includes legacy subcarriers and HE extension subcarriers. The L-LTF may be based on L-LTF pilot symbols mapped to the legacy subcarriers. The L-SIG may be based on L-SIG legacy symbols mapped to the legacy subcarriers and L-SIG extension pilot symbols mapped to the HE extension subcarriers. The AP may scale a per-subcarrier power of the L-SIG extension pilot symbols to match a per-subcarrier power of the L-LTF pilot symbols.

Abstract: A method and system for receiving and decoding horizontally encoded MIMO-OFDM transmissions with improved efficiency. In one embodiment, MIMO decoding is performed on each of the extracted separate tones of a MIMO-OFDM signal to extract and demodulate frequency domain symbols of the first layer corresponding to one or more code blocks. For each code block of the first layer that passes an error check, corresponding portions of the second layer are decoded using SIMO decoding.

Abstract: A method and system for adaptive mitigation of noise interference in a receiver. In one embodiment of the invention, the receiver determines the type of the dominant noise interference among one or more noise interferences. The receiver determines or optimizes the estimation and averaging process of the noise covariance matrix based on the type of the dominant noise interference in one embodiment of the invention. This allows dynamic selection and adaptation of the noise estimate covariance matrix based on the noise type in one embodiment of the invention.

Abstract: A system and method for decoding a Multi User (MU) Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) signal is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a selected symbol in a tone of an MU-MIMO signal at a mobile communication device. A channel response for the selected symbol is identified. Spatial whitening is applied to the tone and the channel response using an average of a co-user interference plus noise matrix that is averaged over a selected number of tones. Maximal ratio combining is performed for the spatially whitened tone and the spatially whitened channel response matrix to decode the selected symbol out of the spatially whitened tone.
