Xianglan Jin has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8948686
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for selecting a source transmit antenna in a cooperative multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) communication system including a source node, a relay node and a destination node. The method includes determining a source transmit antenna selection metric such that a source-destination channel, a source-relay channel and a relay-destination channel are related to one another, and selecting a positive integer number of antennas such that the source transmit antenna selection metric is maximized.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8699400
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a source antenna switching scheme for a non-orthogonal protocol; and more particularly, to a source antenna switching scheme for a non-orthogonal protocol, which transmits a signal of a source node to a destination node through a relay node. The present invention provides a source antenna switching scheme for a non-orthogonal decode-and-forward protocol that can acquire a greater diversity than the conventional NDF protocol. In other words, the present invention provides a source antenna switching scheme for a non-orthogonal decode-and-forward protocol that can increase a diversity order by adding a reasonable priced antenna instead of expensive hardware such as an RF chain when there are a plurality of antenna in the RF chain.
