Abstract: A method implemented in a base station for conveying scheduling information in an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) multi-user (MU)-multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system is disclosed. The method includes transmitting to a first user equipment (UE) the scheduling information including first scheduling information of the first UE and at least a portion of second scheduling information of at least one second UE, wherein the scheduling information includes a resource block (RB) assigned to the first UE, the number of streams, and an indication of one or more dedicated reference symbol (RS) layers assigned to the first UE. Other methods, systems, and apparatuses also are disclosed.

Abstract: A user selection method and apparatus for multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) are disclosed. The method includes: selecting two user-beam pairing modes, and obtaining target functions corresponding to the two user-beam pairing modes; comparing the target functions corresponding to the two user-beam pairing modes; and selecting a user-beam pairing mode with a larger target function. With the present invention, the optimal user-beam pairing mode can be quickly obtained when the channel information is inaccurate; and the calculation is simplified.

Abstract: A method and system for decoding a combination of a first message and a second message that were encoded using a generating matrix of a systematic linear block code is described. The combination of the first message and the second message may be decoded using a parity check matrix. If the second message is known, the first message is decoding using a first component code parity check matrix. If first message is known, the second message is decoded using a second component code parity check matrix. The parity check matrix can be derived from the generating matrix and the first message or the second message can be decoded using the first or second component code parity check matrix.

Abstract: A MMSE-based deterministic sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) method for MIMO demodulation exhibiting square root complexity in terms of constellation size. Further extensions to the method reduce the search space resulting in significant reduction in computational requirements while minimally impacting performance. As a hard decision algorithm, the methods achieve sphere decoder performance while imposing a much smaller computational load.

Abstract: Disclosed is a density evolution algorithm based on a refined definition of node and edge densities for different parts of the code. In particular, density functions ƒV(1)(i) and ƒV(2)(i) of the output edges of the variable nodes with degree i within different codeword regions w1 and we, respectively, are defined and then calculated. Further, density functions ƒC(1)(j) and ƒC(2)(j) of the output edges for check nodes with degree j within codeword regions w1 and we, respectively, are defined and then calculated. Mixture density functions of output check edges connecting variable nodes in the first codeword region and the second codeword region are then calculated to determine an LDPC code design.
