Multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) systems with multiple transmission modes
InactiveUS6862271B2Improve spectral efficiencyReduce noisePower managementSpatial transmit diversityChannel state informationCommunications system
Techniques to transmit data on a number of transmission channels in a multi-channel communication system using multiple transmission schemes requiring less channel-state information (CSI). These schemes may include a partial-CSI transmission scheme that transmits a single data stream on each transmit antenna selected for use and a “beam-forming” transmission scheme that allocates all transmit power to a single transmission channel having the best performance. Each transmission scheme may provide good or near-optimum performance for a specific range of operating conditions (or operating SNRs). These multiple transmission schemes may then be combined in a piece-wise fashion to form a “multi-mode” transmission scheme that covers the full range of operating conditions supported by the MIMO system. The specific transmission scheme to be used for data transmission at any given moment would then be dependent on the specific operating condition experienced by the system at that moment.

Systems and methods of optimizing communication channels in multi-user communication systems are provided. Coding weights are determined based on communication channel state information for communication channels between a transmitter and multiple receivers. The coding weights are applied to communication signals to be transmitted from the transmitter to the receivers. Each receiver decodes received signals using inverses of the coding weights. Embodiments of the invention support multi-user MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) where each receiver has fewer antennas than the transmitter, and enhance system performance if the total number of antennas at all of the receivers exceeds the number of antennas at the transmitter.

Channels estimation for multiple input-multiple output, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system
The distortion in the sub-carrier signals is determined by transmitting known values that are incorporated into the preamble portion of the frame and / or are incorporated into pilot symbols that are inserted into the data portion of the frame. The receiver typically receives these known values in a distorted form and then processes the distorted values together with the original known values to obtain a channel response. The channel response is then used to estimate the frequencies at which the channels are received.

Space-time processing for multiple-input, multiple-output, wireless systems
InactiveUS6888809B1Most capacityMost performanceSpatial transmit diversityPolarisation/directional diversityMultiple inputCovariance matrix
In a MIMO system the signals transmitted from the various antennas are processed so as to improve the ability of the receiver to extract them from the received signal even in the face of some correlation. More specifically the number of bit streams that is transmitted simultaneously is adjusted, e.g., reduced, depending on the level of correlation, while multiple versions of each bit stream, variously weighted, are transmitted simultaneously. The variously weighted versions are combined to produced one combined weighted signal. The receiver processes the received signals in the same manner as it would have had all the signals reaching the receive antennas been uncorrelated. The weight vectors may be determined by the forward channel transmitter using the channel properties of the forward link which are made known to the transmitter of the forward link by being transmitted from the receiver of the forward link by the transmitter of the reverse link or the weight vectors may be determined by the forward channel transmitter using the channel properties of the forward link and the determined weight vectors are made known to the transmitter of the forward link by being transmitted from the receiver of the forward link by the transmitter of the reverse link. The channel properties used to determine the weight vectors may include the channel response from the transmitter to the receiver and the covariance matrix of noise and interference measured at the receiver.

A quantized multi-rank beamforming scheme for multiple-antenna systems such as a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) wireless downlink. User equipment (UE) estimates downlink channel and transmit power and determines rank and power allocations. A quantized beamforming matrix is then determined by the UE using successive beamforming. The UE also determines channel quality indices (CQI) which it feeds-back to the wireless downlink base station along with the index of the quantized beamforming matrix. The base station uses the CQI information to select a UE for scheduling of downlink transmission and the quantized beamforming matrix index received from the selected UE to beamform the downlink transmission to the UE. Base station overhead and is minimized while providing near-optimal performance given the constraints of a limited feed-back channel and computational complexity of the UE.

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for recognizing multiple input point gestures. A recognition module receives an ordered set of points indicating that contacts have been detected in a specified order at multiple different locations on a multi-touch input surface.

The gesture module also detects whether line segments connecting subsequently detected locations (e.g., connecting third and fourth detected locations) intersect line segments connecting previously detected locations (e.g., connecting first and second detected locations). The gesture module recognizes an input gesture based on the relative positions and whether or not line segments intersect. The gesture module then identifies a corresponding input operation (e.g., cut, paste, etc.) to be performed.

Approach to a unified su-mimo/mu-mimo operation
ActiveUS20080132281A1Well formedReceivers monitoringDiversity/multi-antenna systemsChannel state informationCommunications system
An apparatus and method to dynamically schedule user devices in a wireless communication system in single-user multiple-input multiple-output (SU-MIMO) or multiple-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) modes of operation. The dynamic scheduling employs an efficient differential reporting of channel state information that reduces uplink feedback overhead, whereby a base layer value of a channel quality indicator (CQI) is reported in conjunction with a CQI offset value. Antenna subset selection is also reported. The offset value reflects gains by detection with successive interference cancellation if multiple antennas are reported (rank>1), while it reflects the actual offset between single-layer SU-MIMO CQI and MU-MIMO CQI if a single antenna is reported. Scheduled SU-MIMO mode of operation is optimized for a user reporting either a single antenna or multiple antennas, whereas MU-MIMO operation is optimized for a user reporting a single antenna.

A logic circuit combines a plurality of pass-transistor logic trees and a multiple-input logic gate for receiving intermediate logic signals from the respective pass-transistor logic trees, and can express a complex logical operation while decreasing the number of stages in pass-transistor logic trees and improving operation speed. Even a logical operation that cannot be expressed efficiently by a known or conventional pass-transistor logic circuit can be expressed efficiently with performance higher than that of a known CMOS logic circuit. Furthermore, when a static feedthrough current of the multiple-input logic gate is suppressed, power consumption can be reduced. In some embodiments, since circuitry for suppressing a static feedthrough current of the multiple-input logic gate is arranged so that a probability of occurrence of logical collision with a preceding stage will decrease or will be nil, power consumption can further be reduced.
