  • Publication number: 20110255625
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel codebook-based multi-base station unite pre-coding scheme. In this invention, multiple cooperating base stations commonly transmit signals to a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal estimates a channel matrix of a unite MIMO channel from the multiple cooperating base stations, and selects the optimal pre-coding matrix index from the pre-coding matrix codebook based on the unite MIMO channel matrix and feeds it back to the multiple cooperating base stations. Each cooperating base station selects the optimal pre-coding matrix based on the received pre-coding matrix index and uses the corresponding portion of the pre-coding matrix to perform unite pre-coding on the data. Namely, the respective partial pre-coding matrixes as employed by all cooperating base stations together form the pre-coding matrix that is optimal to the mobile terminal, and the pre-coding matrix as used by respective cooperating base stations is a part of the optimal pre-coding matrix.
