  • Publication number: 20060072514
    Abstract: Methods and systems for processing signals in a receiver are disclosed herein and may comprise receiving spatially multiplexed signals via M receive antennas. A plurality of multiple data streams may be separated in the received spatially multiplexed signals to detect MIMO data streams. Each of the MIMO data streams may correspond to a spatially multiplexed input signal. Complex phase and/or amplitude may be estimated for each detected MIMO data streams utilizing (M-1) phase shifters. Complex waveforms, comprising in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components for the MIMO data streams within the received spatially multiplexed signals may be processed and the processed complex waveforms may be filtered to generate baseband bandwidth limited signals. Phase and/or amplitude for one or more received spatially multiplexed signals may be adjusted utilizing the estimated complex phase and amplitude. Phase and/or amplitude may be adjusted continuously and/or at discrete intervals.

  • Publication number: 20060072513
    Abstract: Methods and systems for processing signals in a receiver are disclosed herein and may comprise receiving WCDMA signals via M receive antennas, tracking a plurality of received clusters within the received WCDMA signals, and estimating a complex phase and amplitude of a portion of each of the received clusters. A single cluster may comprise an aggregate of received WCDMA signal paths and (M-1) phase shifters may be utilized for the estimating of the complex phase. Complex waveforms, comprising in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components for the received clusters within the received WCDMA signals, may be processed. The processed complex waveforms comprising the in-phase and quadrature components may be filtered to a WCDMA baseband bandwidth. A phase and/or amplitude for at least one of the received WCDMA signals may be adjusted utilizing the estimated complex phase and amplitude. The phase and/or amplitude may be adjusted continuously and/or at discrete intervals.
