Embodiment Construction

[0045] The disclosed invention provides a technique in a multiple-input multiple-output data transmission or storage system for decoding signal vectors at a receiver, where the receiver may receive multiple signal vectors from the same transmitted signal vector.

[0046] figure 1 A diagram of a basic data transmission or storage system according to one embodiment of the invention is shown. Data, generally divided into packets, is sent from the transmitter 102 to the receiver 112 . During transmission, the signal may be altered by the transmission medium represented by channel 106 and by additional noise sources 108 . Transmitter 102 has N t outputs 104, and the receiver 112 has N r inputs 110, so the channel 106 is modeled as having N t inputs and N r output multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. N t inputs and N r The dimensionality of each output can be achieved using multiple time, frequency or space dimensions or any combination of these dimensions.

Abstract

The present invention provides systems and methods for decoding signal vectors in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, where the receiver has received one or more signal vectors from the same transmitted vector. The symbols of the received signal vectors are combine, forming a combined received signal vector that may be treated as a single received signal vector. The combined signal vector is then decoded using a maximum- likelihood decoder. In some embodiments, the combined received signal vector may be processed prior to decoding. Systems and methods are also provided for computing soft information from a combined signal vector based on a decoding metric. Computationally intensive calculations can be extracted from the critical path and implemented in preprocessors and/or postprocessors. One embodiment considers the MIMO HARQ reception using Cholesky decomposition or factoruzation of the metric.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) of the following U.S. provisional applications: No. 60 / 820,419 filed July 26, 2006, No. 60 / 822,294 filed Aug. No. 60 / 822,821, filed August 18, the entire contents of these applications are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a technique for decoding a received signal vector in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) data transmission or storage system where multiple instances of the same transmitted signal vector may be received by a receiver (instance). Background technique [0004] In data transmission or storage systems, it is desirable to receive exactly at the destination information, often divided into packets. A transmitter located at or near the source transmits the information provided by the source via a signal or signal vector. A receiver located at or near the destination processes the si...
